TheHalifax Posted August 19, 2014 Share Posted August 19, 2014 Ok, I am calling it now, minus the Chapter Badge(waiting for some putty work to dry on the left arm before working on that) and maybe a detail or two on his chest, I think this guy is good to go! WHOOMP THERE IT IS! Seriously Armond, you've made a great mini'. Don't put your skills down, that banding and all of the other detailing looks great; he's spot on. :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/288067-executioners-1850-points-completed-100915/page/18/#findComment-3782206 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Armond Posted August 19, 2014 Author Share Posted August 19, 2014 Well thank you much! I just hope any paint I throw on him does him justice!

Flint13 Posted August 19, 2014 Share Posted August 19, 2014 The more I see them, the more I realize how much better the Cataphractii suits looks with power armored mk heads. I agree, I think he has just the right amount of extra detail without looking over wrought. Awesome job buddy! Can't wait to see him all finished.

Montuhotep Posted August 19, 2014 Share Posted August 19, 2014 "Me chapter master. Me badass." Looks just about perfect. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/288067-executioners-1850-points-completed-100915/page/18/#findComment-3782747 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knight of the Raven Posted August 19, 2014 Share Posted August 19, 2014 No no no, you got it wrong. It's "Me Tarzan Chapter Master. You Jane corpse." Marneus Calgar looks like a pansy with no taste whatsoever compared to Captain Kickass over here.

Armond Posted August 19, 2014 Author Share Posted August 19, 2014 Lol thanks, he does seem like a brute in some ways eh?! But I dunno, the Marneus Calgar model is pretty, but kind of in a wierd overly decorated way I feel like. I just need to sit down and come up with all the final details for this guy, just trying to think on what exactly I want; perhaps I should not the ideas on paper lol Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/288067-executioners-1850-points-completed-100915/page/18/#findComment-3782876 Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I dunno, the Marneus Calgar model is pretty, but kind of in a wierd overly decorated way I feel I think that's a good deal of the difference btwn 30 and 40k. The Astares of the Horus Heresy are far more utilitarian soldiers (in many cases) than their Emperor revering warrior-monk counterparts in the grim dark future.

deathspectersgt7 Posted August 19, 2014 Share Posted August 19, 2014 Huh!! from what I have read and seen in pic's Some 30k Captains and such have Bling so I see no difference between the Two.

Armond Posted August 19, 2014 Author Share Posted August 19, 2014 Well I for one am more towards functionality than looks. So I am definitely happy with the feedback and response from this community. I plan on doing a bit more work, then I need to build up the courage to primer this monster and paint him up, still have to debate in my head the colors to be used outside of the black, white, and gold for Black Consuls.

exetus Posted August 19, 2014 Share Posted August 19, 2014 He's pretty badass and definitely gives off the "I'm going to end you" vibe. I like his stance, too... it's kind of like he's daring his enemies to take their shots, because he'll not only just take whatever punishment they think they can give, but shrug it off and then beat their faces in.

Armond Posted August 20, 2014 Author Share Posted August 20, 2014 He definitely dares those to take shots to a certain extent, using Calgar rules he has Eternal Warrior, no ID for this guy. But of course eventually a shot or two is going to get thru. ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/288067-executioners-1850-points-completed-100915/page/18/#findComment-3783499 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Armond Posted August 21, 2014 Author Share Posted August 21, 2014 Started messing with a Dreadnought Chassis and modifying it to be an Ironclad(I think he was from the AoBR set). Anyway, what do you think of the chainfist? Plenty more to go, like oath papers and putty details. Obviously he is pretty blank overall. I also need to find a place to put the searchlight and the meltagun...

Black Cohort Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 The dreadnought looks awesome. For the searchlights what if you did something similar to what I did for one of mine. If you look at the dreadnought on the left you will see a pair of lights mounted at the base of the Sarcophagus. They came from the Ravenwing upgrade kit. Edit: sorry I can't get a better picture, on vacation without my models.

Armond Posted August 21, 2014 Author Share Posted August 21, 2014 Funny I have a Searchlight I was looking at mounting on the sarcophagus, I just thought with what I had at the time the angle was a little odd. Plus I kind of ran out of time last night to work it out. But I will see what I can conjure up the next few days! Thanks for showing me that!

Armond Posted August 22, 2014 Author Share Posted August 22, 2014 Ok, some more pics, this time of the overall. Unfortunately my putty is useless, there are a few mixed spots in it that somehow got mixed a while back(I am at the end of it where the two components are meeting) and it doesn't allow me to roll it out uniformly or anything. So I have to wait on any putty work until I can purchase another roll of it. Anyway, here ya go. Ironclad Dreadnought w/Assault Launchers, Searchlight, Smoke, Chainfist w/Meltagun and DCCW w/flamer. His intent is to eventually be paired with a drop pod and maybe another Ironclad to accompany him in a different drop pod. Or maybe a Mortis, I have two Dreads listed for the fluff of this Company, haven't decided the variety of Dread the second is.

Kizzdougs Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 Awesome chainfist Armond! The melta on the side is looks great and the chains hanging from the sarcophagus work really well. It makes me want to get some jewler's chain for my minis. Keep up the great work :) Ps. hanging out to see some paint on these guys (the dread and Chapter Master).

Armond Posted August 22, 2014 Author Share Posted August 22, 2014 Yah, just waiting for that feel good moment to start painting again haha. I have an honor guard to assemble and 10 more basic troops(to fill the two tact squads). I also need to work out another Sternguard(probably a Sgt) and also 3 more guys(including a Sgt, for my Devastator Squad). Then I need to work on figuring exactly how many drop pods I need and obtaining some vehicles as well(Whirlwind, Rhino, some AA stuff, etc). But thanks! I always had the Chainfist idea in my head, but not sure how I wanted to accomplish it! Definitely snag some chain, usefu stuff it is!

Armond Posted August 23, 2014 Author Share Posted August 23, 2014 More putty details. A few more things to add and I think I can call him done. I think the Chapter Badge came out pretty decent! Thinking of using the quick mold stuff to copy it for future use!
