paz Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 FIRE HAWKS http://img.photobucket.com/albums/1003/shadow/Firehawksnewbadge_zps42b16dd2.jpg "Burn them all; the God-Emperor will know his own" -Chapter Master Stibor Lazaerek Thematic music [video=youtube;TaI2qTpsgu0] The Fire Hawks. The ******** of the Badab war. Whether they are trying to take on three chapters at once, fire Bombing Agri-worlds, or just being general dicks, The Hawks know how to party. I've been fascinated with the doomed Hawks for a while, and really wanted to do up a force of them pre-LotD. I've got about 2000 pts now of them, and so begins the massive paint and conversion plog!! First is the image below i sketched up. I like the idea of foreshadowing the legion, and having Stibor's lower Face ripped off adds to the skull motif (Lazaerek is described in the fluff for Badab as barely alive from war wounds, Darth Vader style). http://img.photobucket.com/albums/1003/shadow/stibor1_zps2e7298a6.png -Lazaerek, removing breathing mask, 904.M41 http://img.photobucket.com/albums/1003/shadow/206_zpse84d04ed.jpg 'Terminator Squad Proteus, Repulsion at Hollow's Point.' http://img.photobucket.com/albums/1003/shadow/207_zps9d7cb397.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/1003/shadow/208_zps8d296601.jpg 'Knight-Terminator Vorn, heaven's wrath' http://img.photobucket.com/albums/1003/shadow/211_zpsf53de5f5.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/1003/shadow/210_zpsf99679a8.jpg 'Knight-Terminator Ekuus, the Widowmaker" http://img.photobucket.com/albums/1003/shadow/205_zpsf67cc7f9.jpg 'Preceptor-Sergeant Serevor' Here's some pre-work I've done so far on the eponymous Stibor lazaerek. I've since switched out his cane hand for a thunderhammer (cuz, come on, kinda needed.) http://thedeeperwell.weebly.com/uploads/1/7/9/8/17987713/2658771_orig.jpg http://thedeeperwell.weebly.com/uploads/1/7/9/8/17987713/1849836_orig.jpg Also begun work on Elam Courbray, 3rd company captain! http://thedeeperwell.weebly.com/uploads/1/7/9/8/17987713/8580835_orig.jpg More Conversions, painting and art/fluff to come!!!

Montuhotep Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 Nice start - doing the Cyclone launch must have been a pain in the arse - what did you use for the missiles and contrails?

paz Posted March 11, 2014 Author Share Posted March 11, 2014 Thanks brothers! Paladin- quite a hassle, but worth it I think! The missiles are the bottom haft of grey knight staves (only correctly sized missile-like things I could find...) The contrails are done using wire, and bush flock. Once you spray it, it actually gets quite hard, easy to dry brush. The hard part was cutting off the back off the launcher and flipping up the exhaust vents.

Honda Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 <Honda reaches down to the floor where the top of his head rests, slightly steaming. He reaches over to the window to pull his right ear off the glass and sticks it back on his head. A cursory glance does not reveal the location of his nose and left ear> Ok, my head sploded when I accidentally became exposed to the awesomeness in this thread. Seriously, I just love that CML. Stibor just rocks. Please do continue, I need another Fire Hawks fix.

Disruptor_fe404 Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 Awesome stuff. Very curious about the mechanics behind Courbray's helmet. I've been wondering about the assault drills as chainfists myself, so thanks for showing me how it looks!

Nomus Sardauk Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 By the Big Chair these are amazing, those Termis are fantastic especially the Cyclone Launcher dude, 3rd Captain Courbray is majestic with his almost angelic pose and flipped-up helm, very nice! But Lazaerek? Emperor's undies, he's insane! His face, he must have looked at Chaplain Cassius and thought "sweet scars bro, but it's not quite as nightmarish as an Astartes should be. Lemme show you how it's done." And that paint job, sweet terra, how many souls have you sacrificed to the Ruinous Four to be able to paint orange of all colours so dang well?! EDIT: Ooh! I just had a thought, perhaps when you start adding tactical squads to your force you should name one of the Sergeants Centurius. ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/287921-~firefall-fire-hawks-disposition-badab-schism~/#findComment-3618860 Share on other sites More sharing options...
