Looking great ! Hope we'll see this thing in a battle report soon.

[recon0321]

Wow that is amazing! The base is great too! It really brings the model together great work!!!

[Psykic_scribe]

More than first class, Atia.  Truly great painting and superb basing concept.

[Midnightmare]

Absolute work of art, wow

[Atia]

Thanks guys - my oldest cat passed away yesterday and you all helped to cheer me up a bit.

Probably not soon, but I already have ideas for a mini campaign involving Raven Guard, Word Bearers and Daemons/Dark Mec

 

a really bad day for the loyal dreddy...

Now I want a scorpion too

Awww.

 

I bet she just wants to play with him

Ha ha, images of a Khorne Kitten batting a Raven coloured ball of wool. ha ha ha.

I'm sorry for your cat...

 

I was wondering about turn up the body of the dreddy with his hand up in a surrender act, but well... a speis mareen knows no fear. A tactical retreat is a better solution for sure :D

[Arkangilos]

That paint job :o

[Atia]

Thanks for the comments guys =)

Really really really proud that I got the Batch of the Artificer for my little scorpion <3

Anyways, little teaser - I started to convert my Gal Vorbak, and got a bit crazy. There will be some mad stuff that could have been originated from Slaves to Darkness:

All Hail the Great Horned Rat ;)

[Sigismund229]

Looks nice and chaotic. I like it

[Elazar The Glorified]

Cool little conversion. The Gal Vorbak are such characterful sculpts but I was impressed with mine at how well they can be converted to build on that. Looking forward to seeing more!

[Atia]

Thanks

I had a good nice read through both Liber Chaotica and Slaves to Darkness before I started to build them - my brain is still full of chaotic visions

Cool little conversion. The Gal Vorbak are such characterful sculpts but I was impressed with mine at how well they can be converted to build on that. Looking forward to seeing more!

Glad you like him

And yep, both the basic Gal Vorbak and the AoS kits (Wrathmongers and Blight Kings) are awesome. GW - I want moooooar!

Speaking about more:

Hope you guys like ^.^

I love the addition of the antlers. Don't know why but it just seems to add a more wild, primal side to him, making him look a lot more like a beast of chaos than a space marine(for gal vorbak that's a good thing imo).

[Elazar The Glorified]

Agree with Sigismund. The antlers create a really cool inhuman silhoutte that take him beyond being a marine with a gribbly arm etc

[Arkangilos]

:o

 

I agree with the people above me about the antlers :o

 

Awesome conversions!

[Isengrin]

Very nice, you're really onto something with the combination of Gal Vorbak and AoS bits. I will never not like a Chaos marine with nurgle-y horns.

[Luna707]

Mmmm love that antler!

[KrautScientist]

Really like where you are going with these! The antlers are indeed very fitting and rather disturbing.

[Iron Hands Fanatic]

Hot damn Atia, those Gal Vorbak conversions are ace! Big fan of  that kind of 'chaosification', any plans for something similar with a Mhara Gal contemptor?

[Atia]

Thanks guys, glad you like the antler dude

Very nice, you're really onto something with the combination of Gal Vorbak and AoS bits. I will never not like a Chaos marine with nurgle-y horns.

Yeah, most of the AoS chaos kits are great for conversion bits, and they have the right size for Gal Vorbaks (especially the nurgle stuff). Also, since everyone loves them, I may have to re-use nurgly-horns on some Nurgle Deathguard in the future xD

Thanks buddy - well, I just saw your AL Gal Vorbak and let's say ..... need to do them one day

For the Mhara Gal - I got a stock one for painting already. My list is basically done and I'm looking forward to start with my Raven Guard - but (!) I'll keep any ideas for future projects - may it be Alpha Legion or Nurgle Death Guard

I always love to see someone putting this much thought into their conversions - looking forward to seeing how these guys turn out :)

[Midnightmare]

Great work right there Atia, very original too :tu:

[Atia]

Thanks guys

Due to Legion I totally forgot to post my Tactical Squad here - so ... well, here they are:

Also I started to work on the mutated guys:

Edited September 4, 2016 by Atia

[Sigismund229]

The tactical squad looks awesome! I particularly like the silver faceplates, it's a nice contrast with the red 

[Midnightmare]

Excellent work as ever, very cool squad B)

 

Big beasty looking suitably, beasty :D
