Unknown Chronicler Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 Love your work so far Grizzly_bear! I agree with you that those chapters on the verge of being destroyed like the Scythes or Crimson Fists have the most character to bring to the minis especially since there are so few you can make each one stand out as a one man army against the darkness :). I say keep at it brother I will be watching with interest!

Olis Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 Not a bad idea using Typhon for your Chapter Master. The question is: What other bitz are you going to use in his construction? ^_^ Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/290022-scythes-of-the-emperor-update-131118/page/20/#findComment-3949257 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grizzly_bear Posted February 13, 2015 Author Share Posted February 13, 2015 Thanks a lot gents. @olis....just wait fella lol & @Ozdestro thank you very much.... Right quick few pictures of Augustus's model.... http://i1294.photobucket.com/albums/b604/grizzlywipez/scythes%20of%20the%20Emperor/BC41773F-0258-4E31-A5ED-FB61AA12D75B_zpsb6zlvu0y.jpg http://i1294.photobucket.com/albums/b604/grizzlywipez/scythes%20of%20the%20Emperor/4173A8E3-6715-4C07-86F6-42EF128C9449_zps5tij1hag.jpg So quick brief on him....he's unstable....a trophy head hunter, one of the last Sothans left in tee chapter, only survivor of his company, at the Giants coffin A zenothorpe or whatever had him shrivelled in a mind lock but it was destroyed with an explosion at point of destruction it tried to invade his mind to survive anyway it could. The attempt failed but the scythe was wounded and his mind altered, that explosion ended te lives of his last men under his leadership as wel as left him as the sole survivor of his company. You all like the pose? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/290022-scythes-of-the-emperor-update-131118/page/20/#findComment-3949597 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Augustus b'Raass Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 As I said in PM, he's awesome and I'm super excited and honoured to be immortalized like that. Also, his fluff and the enormous Tyranid head on his base make me scared of... myself? ;) Awesome miniature, great pose, and a stellar kitbash overall. Now get some paint on him!! ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/290022-scythes-of-the-emperor-update-131118/page/20/#findComment-3949599 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daemon2027 Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 That is a lovely pose one I will have to 'borrow'. Its been a while since I commented but this plog is full of awesomeness.

Grizzly_bear Posted February 13, 2015 Author Share Posted February 13, 2015 Cheers fella, I would only be taking part of the credit for the feel of the model and the characters 'bio' as Augustus put the seeds there for me to use and make the character 'bloom' (wow cringe wording there) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/290022-scythes-of-the-emperor-update-131118/page/20/#findComment-3950061 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monstra Sumus Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 I'm really digging the posing on the Assault Sergeant fella. Lots of nice areas on those marks of armour to do weathering.

Lysimachus Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Beautiful stuff here, as usual. Particularly like the Dev Sgt on the previous page, the fist and MK V look brutal together. Isn't he a Tac Sgt though, with the arrow on his right shoulder? Maybe from a gaming viewpoint it'd be better to use the PF guy on a Tac squad and the Apologist bolter Sgt with the Devs? The fist is probably a better choice on a squad that is less static?

LachlantheLoaf14 Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 This is a fantastic, brutal looking army and the Assault sergeant is bloody brilliant! with the standard bearer where does his banner come from?

sockwithaticket Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 Last couple of updates have been typically top-drawer. The pose on the Augustus model is very badass. If you're going to stare someone down, do it while perched on a Carnifex's head, it'll definitely make them consider what their next move is.As good as the banner is I think you can make it even better by paying a bit more attention to the Tyranid's carapace, the crux on the end of the chain and the scythes on the skull.
