Noctus Cornix Posted April 4, 2015 Share Posted April 4, 2015 Brass Scorpion! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/288089-but-blood-blood-is-forever/page/12/#findComment-3997558 Share on other sites More sharing options...
poom Posted April 4, 2015 Author Share Posted April 4, 2015 Brass Scorpion!Exactly It is just such a good fit for my army, as for one I had the model lying around since ages (I bought it for a deamon army that I never finished..) and secondly it is also very nice to explain from the fluff perspectiv, as Sarum will be later after the civil war, Khornes favorite Hell-Forge. It makes sense that the Redjak Cult, with beeing cut off from Mars for ages and then joining the rebelion and all, did already produce prototypes during the Horus Heresy. And well.. it is a kick-ass modell, very "grimdark" Here you can see Magos Redjak personally overseeing the construction of the prototype: http://i420.photobucket.com/albums/pp282/PoomW/Skorpion01%2004.jpg I cut off some of the chaos decoration and replaced the tail weapons with one clean mini-gun. With plastic card I did some minor details and also I will not use any of the blades. I think when painted it will fit pretty good into the army.

Brother Heinrich Posted April 4, 2015 Share Posted April 4, 2015 That would make a really awesome diorama Poom! Looking forward to the finished product!

poom Posted April 12, 2015 Author Share Posted April 12, 2015 Thanks Heinrich!  Only some minor gap filling left to do:  http://i420.photobucket.com/albums/pp282/PoomW/Skorpion01%2006.jpg  As for the painting, I was thinking about to give the top armor plates, going along the spine, a brass color, the other ones and the cabeling a black. The idea behind it was that the brass color of the prototypes later gave the scorpion his name. What do you think about that?

The idea behind it was that the brass color of the prototypes later gave the scorpion his name. What do you think about that? I think that using a lighter gold like a white gold would look pretty cool, but make it still feel like it's not chaos-ified. Painting it in world eater colors would be pretty awesome, but it bet you'll still make it look good either way!  What rules are you running with it? I've never seen one in action.

poom Posted April 20, 2015 Author Share Posted April 20, 2015 I will play him with his original rules, but he could also be a nice Castigator Knight count as I guess.  Here is some progress:  http://i420.photobucket.com/albums/pp282/PoomW/Skorpion1%2011.jpg http://i420.photobucket.com/albums/pp282/PoomW/Castellax02%2010.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/288089-but-blood-blood-is-forever/page/12/#findComment-4014962 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iron Hands Fanatic Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 Gotta say Poom, all this stuff is pretty damn outstanding - one of the things I appreciate in miniatures most is 'realism' in regards to palette - with accurate tones for materials, which more often than not means more muted, earthier colours, which I think you've captured perfectly keep up the good work Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/288089-but-blood-blood-is-forever/page/12/#findComment-4015445 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aqui Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 The colour scheme is very effective - it shows age and its Chaotic nature, but isn't over the top. Fantastic!

Kizzdougs Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Wow! Â Â Â Â Â That Scorpion is amazing... Â Â Â I've never seen the victims trapped in the cables before. They just take the mini to a whole new level of amazing. Excellent paint job to make them contrast and stand out nicely. Â Do you have any plans for entering this year's ETL (representing the Age of Darkness, naturally)?
