chaplain mortis Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Ohhhhh...2 contemptors! Both the "iron warriors" ones? Makes sure you get some pre paint pics up of the angles forgeworld haven't covered of them...brutal looking models... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire Golem Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 I've not seen much positive reactions to the FW IW contemptor but I think it looks awesome, can't wait to see yours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Captain Lucian Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 I find that it matches the IW legion, but they shouldn't have added the sculpted hazard stripes. And the pipe could possibly have been replaced by some heavier armour. It is a bit silly to have a weak spot like that in the sarcophagus of the dread. But no matter, I think it's a awesome model. And yep, Chaplin Mortis, its two of the IW variants.I also find that it is a bit of a shame, that FW don't have a painted variant up for show.

Fire Golem Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Well with the pipes i like to think it was patched up mod siege with the best stuff they had to hand, but yeah the hazard stripes are a little silly. Can be filed off/filled in if it's really that big a deal though? :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Captain Lucian Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 I don't think its such a problem, as I would have painted hazard stripes there anyway. Gotta break up the metal colour.But it's just extra work if you don't want to have it. And there is no real reason to have them sculpted on. But, as I said - I like the model a lot, especially the helmet design. Sculpted hazard stripes and pipes be damned, ill make it look like it walked through hell and back :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lokkorex Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 When i eventually get the iw contemptor i'll just use the head and the knee with the iw icon on it. The rest i Will take from the iron hands contemptor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daemon2027 Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Up late as baby won't sleep, so thought I would throw up these guys. Clan Champion, and a bolter marine. Think I need to tweak the Champions base so he isn't falling backwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rest i Will take from the iron hands contemptor. 100% this. I'm grabbing those IW conteptors only for the head and then throwing onto the bits from others.

grand_master85 Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 I tend to do my minis in batches so am taking a while longer to get things done. Anyhoo, here's my Imperial Fists Templar Brethren Chalter Champion. Just a mk III guy with one of the IF torsos and veterans helmets. Really like the quality of the Imperial Fists upgrades, absolutely lovely bits of kit. Now the hard decision is how to paint him up. Going to have the Templar Cross on the right shoulder pad and the IF Legion symbol on he left. Guessing a combination of the black and yellow in the armour, maybe all black bar the chest and vambraces or such Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chaplain mortis Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Nice templar! Also nice to see the imp fist helmet at a slightly different angle to the forgeworld website... Have you thought about going for a marines malevolent type scheme for your templars? I:e black backpack and torso and yellow on the rest? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grand_master85 Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Well I was thinking more yellow on the chest, only because I've got a fair few of the IF torsos in the Templar Brethren squad. Otherwise, they'd end up having black chests and black Legion symbols! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaplain mortis Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Fair enough...I didnt think that through enough...could always paint the fist icons in gold? Failing that, any variation of yellow and black would work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
depthcharge12 Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Well I'll be getting back to my terminators as soon as I'm done visiting my girlfriend for the weekend. However, upon reaching her apartment, she built a tower worthy of Dorn in my honor: http://i911.photobucket.com/albums/ac316/treacyjohn2/caeacd02b7e577cb38c35a725981ffad_zps3d36e681.jpg Edit: for those of you who were wondering... It's armor value 14 all around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daemon2027 Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 I would have good fun destroying that tower. Just to say, I once tried doing gold on yellow, its tricky to get the right tone but it can look good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
