AJB2K3 Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Q1, I have a few noise marines with the old Kakophoni Backpacks (ones with speakers in them).I want to finish the squad up to 10 men but don't see the parts on ebay. I haven't got the skill or equipment to make my own packs and was wondering where I could find some? Q2, How does one go about painting these things? I'm at a loss for paint schemes. Q3, I also need 3 more weapons. apart from the standard blaster/blastmaster FC weapons, what others are easy to make?

Forté Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 Q1. Good luck. Those are really Noise Marine backpacks as only Forge World have made Kakophoni models. But those backpacks rarely come up. Q2. My personal favourite subject. For me a Slaanesh army wouldn't be held by the usual army painting rules of find a scheme and repeat to death. And Noise Marines even more so. The only colours I'd avoid are dull shades and browns. Everything else is in. And in any combination you can think up. If people post that your models make their eyes bleed then you're doing it right. Q3. You need to decide the roll of the squad. If it has a blastmaster then keep it as a small squad with bolters and maybe a power weapon on the champ. Big squad with a Doom Siren champion, throw in some close combat weapons.

Kierdale Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 Recently I've been wracking my brains over a colour scheme for my NM and I think Forte has finally covinced me to just go wild. The temptation to 'find a scheme' -after years of loyalist marines and IG- is difficult to shrug. When you say 'old kakophani' you mean old 'in universe' (i.e. The FW Kakophani) or the old metal Noise Marines? I only ask as they too had speakers atop their backpacks.

incinerator950 Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 I'm planning on either Beasts of Anniahilation or Violators, so mine won't be proper bold.

Forté Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 The FW Kakophoni only have standard MkV backpacks so it's the old GW metals I'm guessing. Unless it's the one with loads of pipes with faces on? That's a Doom Siren ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/296094-noise-marine-kakophoni-bands/#findComment-3797600 Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJB2K3 Posted September 3, 2014 Author Share Posted September 3, 2014 Yup sorry the old metal ones. Yup my champ has a power claw and face speaker.Should I be getting the doom siren orgen pack to replace the metal speaker on my champ.Also what shoulder pads should I use?

Forté Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 Use any pads you like. I can recommend the ones from the plastic Chaos Raptors set. There are 5 detailed ones in the set.

Kierdale Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 Another idea for the shoulder pads is to cut the vents off some spare PA backpacks (who doesn't have some spare?) and stick them into the shoulder pads. Carefully cut the vent part off from the ball. Just the vent and ring. Can always add some wire snaking across the pads too.
