SalvationOfReason Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 So one of the Scimitars won't have the fins at the front? Or are you replacing it with something else, say, perhaps, fins made with the wings off a Sanguinary Guard jump-pack? (hint hint)Also, will Seraph be getting some reinforcements based off the new BA tact squad or Sanguinary Priest? Even I want that Priest, although with some...modifications...

Nomus Sardauk Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 Also, will Seraph be getting some reinforcements based off the new BA tact squad or Sanguinary Priest? Even I want that Priest, although with some...modifications... Hmm, that's an interesting point, if nothing else I'll probably be gettin that Sanguinary Priest for that glorious beast of a Chainsword. :drool: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/294696-the-fall-of-seraph-histories-of-the-ixth/page/9/#findComment-3881019 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Argent aquila Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 Your updates never fail to entertain my mind. the only thing i could conceive as wonky is the fact that you have a blunt axe, but that's just my OCD for sharp weapons kicking in...... love the helmet on him, need to find a way to get some.... they are those jumping phosphex lads, are they not? or despoiler maybe? can't remember anywho, your flying wangs look very nice, solid work. EDIT:: also, i just now noticed the borders on the pics.............. how long have i been oblivious to those?

JackDaw Posted December 10, 2014 Author Share Posted December 10, 2014 Afternoon chaps and chappesses  Good news - the last 5 Assault Astartes are assembled and just await a smidge of greenstuff before being undercoated. They flew together quite quickly to be fair. Still a bit more to do though, 7 more Breachers, 5 more Vets, 3 more Scimitars and maybe something else.  Replies!  Brother Dallo - 4 out of this 5 are dynamic, so with the one running chap from the painted lot, thats 5 dynamic and 5 steady. Nice mix I think. One of the bikers does indeed have a Templar helm, its one of the Red Scorpion ones with 90% of the Scorpion stuff shaved off. And thanks very much :)  SalvationOfReason - hah, yeah his fins kinda fell off and I kinda didnt notice until after the pic. Ah well. He's the sergeant so has some special fins - not the wings, I did try those but they looked a bit large and too Angely for my more subtle taste. And no, no extra bits from the BA release for me - I've got all the Tactical bits I need, and all the Angel bits, plus that San Priest is just terrible.  SanguiniusReborn - gonna have to disagree there brother, the Priest is awful and that chainsword is...well, its the best of a bad model. Sorry.  Argent Aquila - glad you're enjoying them :) Leave his blunt axe alone, he's been hitting Eaters. Plus, that piece is years old ;) I am using the Destroyers yeah, great little models and the reinforced MkIV is lovely. And thanks for noticing my solid wangs......  Marshal2Crusaders - just be glad I didn't put the plasma cannon on. Wang overload.  Hyaenidae - there will be moar, oh yes.  Right, just gotta sort out the little blurb for the Assault chaps and they will be up in a day or two. Good times. Also gotta start on my BL submission, even if it is predictable Deathwatch.  Cheers all  Jack Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/294696-the-fall-of-seraph-histories-of-the-ixth/page/9/#findComment-3885623 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Dallo Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 A black library submission? Intriguing. Will you be sharing it with us, or will it be for their eyes only? Best of luck to you sir. Be sure to remember us little people when you're a famous best selling author. I look forwards to seeing the next batch of marines. How much longer do you plan to say with the IXth? Once you've finished the Breachers, Vets, Scimitars and the ever mysterious "something else", will you keep adding models till you have a certain points limit, or will you drop them in favour of a new project?

JackDaw Posted December 10, 2014 Author Share Posted December 10, 2014 Brother Dallo - I'll probably have to keep it under wraps until after the window and selection is done, but once that's out of the way I'll pop it up here somewhere :) Hopefully it'll go well - it'd be nice to be published again. The original plan was to do a 1500pt army, but I've kinda sacked that idea and are just doing the units I want.  The project as a whole will be done once the last bits I listed have been done - I'm not a huge 30k gaming fan, endless clang-offs of Astartes on Astartes gets real dull after a while, and GW has pretty much knocked large scale gaming on the head for me overall. Instead, I'll be doing some smaller skirmish style stuff, mainly Necromunda, Kill-Team and =][=28.  My next immediate projects after Seraph are a Cognitae and Mercenary Rogue Trader crew for =][=28, then a Cawdor Necromunda gang using the DV cultists. After that, I want to do a Kill-Team of Heresy era Night Lords based off the characters I introduced in Flint's lovely Shadow of Korriana Forge thread.  That's the plan at least. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/294696-the-fall-of-seraph-histories-of-the-ixth/page/9/#findComment-3886079 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flint13 Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 ... It upsets me how perfectly that destroyer helm works with a giant axe and jump pack.

Brother Dallo Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 Fair enough. I've dabbled in Necromunda, and what I've experienced was good fun. Are you active over at Yakromunda? I'm not sure, is talk about Necromunda allowed here at BnC? I'd assume so, due to be multitude of topics about cultists and Guard,must don't recall seeing any topics for it. Â Nice job with be assault marines. Kalen is my favourite, though that may be due to the similarities in posing to one of my own marines.

Tian Shan Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 This is such a stylish endeavour JackDaw.

JackDaw Posted December 19, 2014 Author Share Posted December 19, 2014 Evening everyone :)  Small progress is being made on the Assault Marines, the base coat of the red is almost almost done. I've had a busy few days with various xmas stuff for the wee man, as well as interviewing for a new job, which I got. Yay me. Also working on my BL submission, which is going slowly. So slowly. But I will get there dammit.  Aside from the Assault chaps, I've been sorting out a new head for my Consul - he needs some GS hair, but it's looking pretty sweet. I'll sort a pic out once the hair is in place.  Commissar Molotov - Yeah Matias does look a bit off in that pic, think its the angle though as he looks better IRL. The =][=28 stuff has already kinda started, there were a few bits in the Three Hives Rebellion thread and I did start a proper thread for them on Warseer - I really should get The Currency Of Lies up to date and over here. And a project you say? I am all ears.  Flint13 - I am loving two handed axes on Astartes at the moment. The Destroyer helms are my new favourite mk4 helm as well. Get some.  BrotherDallo - I was on Yakromunda briefly, but only to record a gang roster for a campaign we in the Warbastards did. Thanks for the support on the sub, fingers crossed here too :)  Tian Jun - Thanks very much fella, very kind of you to say so. Looking forward to seeing what you come up with yourself.  DexC - Ah thanks man, much appreciated. I think Three Hives was where I really found my feet in terms of how I do a log and project - Seraph benefits from all that experience. Honestly, the idea and theme for Seraph came from not wanting to do anything 30k related - when I finally caved, this was very much a 'well, if I'm going to have to do 30k, I'm going to kill all my own Astartes. So there.' Once I get that basic hook, everything else just kinda falls into place.  That's it for tonight all, more to come as soon as I get a spare moment to breath :)  Jack    Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/294696-the-fall-of-seraph-histories-of-the-ixth/page/9/#findComment-3895477 Share on other sites More sharing options...

JackDaw Posted December 23, 2014 Author Share Posted December 23, 2014 Evening everyone :) Â Just time for a few quick replies before I leave you all with a small festive treat. Â TerraZero20 - very kind of you to say fella, thanks :) There's still a bit to go with the Angels of Seraph, but it wont be a huge army. As for action on the battlefield, there may be something in the future. Â Hushrong - thanks man, glad you like them. The red did come out nicely, been a whlie since I painted something that vibrant on that scale. Suprisingly quick to do as well. Â Flint13 - hey, we've gotta look good while smiting traitors right? Besides, the Third are the pretty-boys, we in the Ninth are just hauntingly good-looking. And good things come to those who wait. Â Righty, better post up something a bit more special then, eh?
