Sir_Isenhar Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 Welcome Horus heresy fans! I will starting my Loyalist blog mainly focused on Emperor's Children plus Mechanicum forces. Not having a large community of 30k around I have decided to start with a Imperial knight army with detachment of Emperor's Children as Allies.. They will be focused around the Istvann III time frame when they were betrayed by there brothers.. So as you will notice below my EC and Knights will be fighting Sons of Horus.. I ordered a lot of stuff from FW & managed to produce some stuff myself and I need lots of casualites ( which I intead to use for basing and objectives ) Well Enough talking! I am sure you are bored already so here are the pictures! The Knight base is still WIP but you will get the general idea! Saul Tarvitz http://i136.photobucket.com/albums/q166/Venatust/Saul1.jpg http://i136.photobucket.com/albums/q166/Venatust/saul2.jpg Emperor's Children Squad http://i136.photobucket.com/albums/q166/Venatust/squad1.jpg http://i136.photobucket.com/albums/q166/Venatust/squad2.jpg http://i136.photobucket.com/albums/q166/Venatust/squad3.jpg http://i136.photobucket.com/albums/q166/Venatust/squad4.jpg Imperial Knight Base http://i136.photobucket.com/albums/q166/Venatust/base.jpg http://i136.photobucket.com/albums/q166/Venatust/base1.jpg http://i136.photobucket.com/albums/q166/Venatust/base2.jpg http://i136.photobucket.com/albums/q166/Venatust/base3.jpg Basic Imperial Knight Concept WIP http://i136.photobucket.com/albums/q166/Venatust/Knight1.jpg http://i136.photobucket.com/albums/q166/Venatust/knight2.jpg Comments and Suggestions Welcome!!!

Marshal Reinhard Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 That might just be the most insane, over the top and just crazily ambitious base project I've ever seen... Is that Abbadon and Loken's scenic base under the contemptor? No, scratch what I saidearlier , that is easily THE most insane, over the top and crazily ambitious base project I've seen. PS: I also love how you depicted Saul, the model just oozes presence, from his pose to the selected bling that his peers lack.

GrandMagnus Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 Nice I really like your Tarvitz! I dont know if he would have looked better without a helmet though.

WarSpirit Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 You could pose the contemptor arms so he's trying to push back the knight's feet, struggle of death.

The_Chaplain Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 Tarvitz looks great; replacing the field of the stock Mk 2 pad with one from a puppetswar shoulderpad must have been a difficult hack job, but it has been executed extremely well. Your Emperor's Children squad look characterful. But as others have stated, dear god emperor that imperial knight base. That is just friggin' crazy! Very excited to see what comes out of this blog!

DarKHaZZ13 Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 Simply put: You've got balls having that base.I absolutely LOVE the concept.And I pray that the execution (ie: paint job) matches the effort put in so far.Good Luck! I think all of the B&C regulars are watching this with bated breath.

Honda Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 I never get tired of looking at Mk. III armor. I don't know why. It doesn't matter who's doing it, it always looks awesome. Bravo on Tarvitz! Your titan base.............................................................................................................................................SERIOUSLY?!!! <pulls out popcorn> I am definitely looking forward to this.

Sir_Isenhar Posted April 7, 2014 Author Share Posted April 7, 2014 UPDATE: First of I would like to thank you all for your inspiring comments that give me courage to continue this project to completion! So the Most expensive base in the warhammer universe continues hehe! It wasnt as easy as I thought and I struggled to get it to look correct and nice but finally I think I am happy with the result. I still have to but some more basing around the left leg of the knight to make it like he is crushing the earth and its sinking under him a little. Also as suggested I did put the Contemptor's Claw under his foot so there struggle continues! Although I am prettty sure the Contemptor will meet his fate for forsaking the Emperor! Here is a general Overview : http://i136.photobucket.com/albums/q166/Venatust/knight1.jpg It was hard to glue plastic on basing so and the leg pose was a little unstable. So I put a screw on the bottom of the left leg like I did with my Crusader leviathan on my other blog. http://i136.photobucket.com/albums/q166/Venatust/screw.jpg Here are the casualties of war! A loyalist emperor's children and a traitorous scum! http://i136.photobucket.com/albums/q166/Venatust/newbase9.jpg Here are pictures of the current state of the most expensive base in the warhammer universe hehe !!! http://i136.photobucket.com/albums/q166/Venatust/newbase1.jpg http://i136.photobucket.com/albums/q166/Venatust/newbase2.jpg http://i136.photobucket.com/albums/q166/Venatust/newbase3.jpg http://i136.photobucket.com/albums/q166/Venatust/newbase4.jpg http://i136.photobucket.com/albums/q166/Venatust/newbase5.jpg http://i136.photobucket.com/albums/q166/Venatust/newbase6.jpg http://i136.photobucket.com/albums/q166/Venatust/newbase7.jpg From the sheer force of the stomp the Contemptor's leg has ripped apart! I intend to put some cables and green stuff there make the severing of the connection more realistic. http://i136.photobucket.com/albums/q166/Venatust/newbase8.jpg How do you think I can improve the base to make it even more realistic as being in the Istvann III planet ?? As Always Comments and Suggestions most welcome! Next I have almost finished Solomon Dementer and finishing the Despoiler squad!

Marshal Reinhard Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 How is the rest of the pose planned to be? is he looking to blast the contemptor point black now that it is pinned under his foot?

Aqui Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 Tarvitz is a cracker, but that base! I love the fact that the Contemptor is trying to push the Knight off. Damn that base must have put a hole in your wallet!

Sir_Isenhar Posted April 8, 2014 Author Share Posted April 8, 2014 Thanks to everyone for the comments! Was away from home on work so progress is a bit slow! I have also started to paint a Emperor's Champion squad with bolters How is the rest of the pose planned to be? is he looking to blast the contemptor point black now that it is pinned under his foot? Or saw? I am not sure Reinhard.. Considering that both of the Imperial Knight's weapons are large blast would is be wise to blast at his leg and obliterate the contemptor? Maybe better to crush him with his stomp or slice him with his Chainsword? Or maybe the Contemptor is insignificant for the Imperial knight and I pose him looking in the distance for a worthy foe? Either way I plan to magnetize his waist for easier transport so I should be able to make multiple poses..
