Scythes of the emperor.... Update 13/11/18


Recommended Posts

Awesome. I'm honoured you wrote such an elaborate piece of fluff about sergeant Augustus! It's also pretty cool that there's a brother sergeant Heinrich in there (I'm PMing with Brother Heinrich about some fluffy connections between my 47th and his 15th company Night Lords). :tu:

Not a problem fella, I wrote a piece like this for Heinrich as he's actually my tactical squads sgt after he included my self into the first batch of B&C members to his NL's.

 

@ brother Heinrich: you know lol

Jaw-dropping conversions and painting Grizzly. I really like the new assault squad and I've said before, the captain drawing the sword is superb! I especially like the weathering on the jump packs. All in all these guys look like they've been through xenos hell and that's exactly how it should be. Now, to get some more nids painted and to arrange an exhibition match ;)

 

Looking forward to seeing how your Abaddon conversion works out!

Thank you for them words brother, and yes we do need to meet up and game and for me to blow up your bugs.

 

 

 

I love that since FW made all the MK's armor it really allows chapters like the Scythes to come to life and show the scavenging...I feel this lends to renegade chapters as well

  

 

Thank you fella, I've wanted to do a renegade chapter for a while tbh....I may do it one day?

 

Assault squad turned out great bro, esp Sgt Augie, really great work.

Abby conversion off to a great start too B)

Thank you, you chaos lover lol

Everybody loves to hate a renegade. They're the best cuz screw the system!!!  :biggrin.:

 

would love to see some crazy color scheme for renegades if you start any.

I know now why i can't get the effect desired. In my first wardens i used actually real gold with gold pigments and every darn color is ( if not thick) wont get a hold. So i have to wait for the next bunch which will be based with gw gold spray

It's been a while but by troth you have been busy!

 

Excellent assault squad and the Abbi diversion is fantastic!! Also just as an FYI will be robbing your various black, yellow and weathering techniques for some heresy fists just as soon as the plastics are out, apologies in advance

Thank you gents for the comments and love really appreciate it.

 

 

So, he's finally finished.

 

And as always here's a little story to go with him

 

Veteran Brother Sargent

 

Bernardus Ursus "the bear"

 

1st Sargent, heir to the 1st company

 

Bernardus's has witnessed the fall and now the rise of his beloved chapter, one of the last true sothans left in the chapter, a mountain of a marine, not in size but his sheer power and presence amongst his brothers.

 

When the chapter faced the difficult choice of rebuilding or going out in a blaze of glory Bernardus was one the marines who stood with the newly promoted chapter masters choice of re building, what came as a shock was he requested that he be sent to the death watch, not for opposing his chapter master like the other 39 brothers he would travel to death watch with but so he could come back a truer warrior than when he left and help re build and re mould the chapter into one of the deadliest chapter the imperium can count on to face the tyranid threat.

 

So his time in the death watch was long and hard, many times coming across the tyranid menace and many times was he nearly laid low for he sought out the biggest bugs he could, wishing for death or self challenge no one will know but he, it wasn't until an attack on a hive ship where his next path to lead him back to his chapter began, his squad were surrounded and cut off, wave after wave of aliens besieged the squad, but Bernardus calm mind kept the squad together and the fire discipline was perfect, after what seemed an eternity relief came in the form of his chapter who were on the ship looking for survivors and armour.

 

After a long greeting the chapter master brought him into a room with an ornate suit of terminator armour was hanging,

 

"I thought we only a handful of these Lord" he said

 

"It's true, we do although the death watch have promised a suit for every marine that returns to us, but this suit, it's cataphracti armour; from back before the traitor Horus turned his eye from the emperor, this suit belonged to get very first captain of the 1st company of our beloved chapter" the chapter master said

 

"Captain Titus, he's victories during the scourging and his personal records of fighting side by side with Alexius Pollux made him into one our best warriors" spoke Bernardus

 

"Indeed brother, and I can't think of any one more suited to take its mantle, you are one of my strongest marines, the youngest even know and look up to you, I need you back in the chapter, I need the 1st company built back, we already have a few marines who have started this and are ready to stand at your back and you lead them, what say you brother"

 

With that Bernardus dropped to one knee, head bowed;

 

"Lord.....I don't feel I have that honour, but it is your wish and I will set about the tasks you give me until a die or fail"

 

"Then rise, you will take the title as 1st Sargent as well as 1st captain"

 

And this is where his legend began....

As always leave your comments.

 

Thank for looking guys

think you have really excelled yourself with the face - i'm not far from you, please show me one day, Master.

 

Thank you fella, where abouts are you from then

 

 

Great Mini, and a very cool Army !

 

 

Thank you brother

 

In an army of bad asses he doesn't have to tell anyone he's in charge. Fantastic mini, bud!

  

 

Glad he has that presence lol

 

 

Excellent this proves just what can be done with a imagination and a not so little hobby budget!

Trust me my hobby budget isn't big whatsoever, non existent tbh I've just managed to get good deals w

When possible, thank you for the props though brother

By the Emperor's golden gonads brother, wouldn't want to face him in a dark alley. My tyranids on the other hand.... ;)

 

 

Looks awesome mate. I especially like the weathering on the white storm bolter.

Thank you brother, and let your nids bring it.....just make sure they're ready next year.

Hello everyone, well what a few weeks I've had, for those of you that have me on Facebook will know that I've entered into my first competition for April next year, Miami pro fitness model, over 75kg category, so my comp prep is on full swing so hobby wise has taken a bit of a hit hence why the Abby model took a while and I can only imagine it's going to get slower as the weeks get closer to April.

 

So apart from that, here's what I'm working on at the moment.

 

A couple of you if not all of you will remember this guy

So this morning I under coated the model and got the first layer of black down before heading to gym and now work.
