sockwithaticket Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 Don't know if he'll drop by to post here, but Lorenzen's just started some Lamenters and even in it's early WIP stages his Malakim Phoros is looking special. Thread's up in the WIP section, well worth a look.

MephistonTheLordOfDeath Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 I'm working on Dante next. Here are a few I like: http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l266/jah-minis/forum%20pics/frontdantesm_zps7245f4a0.jpg This is actually my mini. :) I bought it off the artist last year. I have since magnetized the wings so I can take them off and put them on depending upon my mood.

It was really easy, and I can tell you I picked out the smallest magnets I could get. But like I said I will post specifics tomorrow.

sockwithaticket Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 He posts on here under that name, too. Fairly-regularly updates a thread in the WIP section with both new work and throwback Thursday models. Well worth a look.I love this thread, but it's making it very hard to stay focused on getting my half finished existing stuff to the finish line when all I want to do is kitbash HQs.

MephistonTheLordOfDeath Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 How do you magnetise the wings. I would be extremely happy if you could tel me size of magnets used etc.. As promised here are the tools and magnet size I used: http://i176.photobucket.com/albums/w173/Oversoul11/imagejpg1.jpg I snipped a small part of the wing off and carefully glued a magnet to it: http://i176.photobucket.com/albums/w173/Oversoul11/imagejpg4.jpg Here is where I bored a small hole and glued the magnets to the model (I have to touch up the model still): http://i176.photobucket.com/albums/w173/Oversoul11/imagejpg5.jpg Here he is with and without the wings (excuse the lighting and focus): http://i176.photobucket.com/albums/w173/Oversoul11/imagejpg2.jpg http://i176.photobucket.com/albums/w173/Oversoul11/imagejpg3.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/300271-post-blood-angel-special-character-conversions/page/2/#findComment-3902743 Share on other sites More sharing options...
girot Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 That's pretty slick. I wish I'd thought of that when I modeled my Not-Dante! I hate having to reattach his wings every once in awhile.

Jønke Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 Thank god theres not paint on my dante so i dont have to feel ashamed :P http://i158.photobucket.com/albums/t94/jesperplougmann/IMG_0853.jpg It was important to me that he had a reguler jump pack and a normal inferno pistol from the dc box so he looked as much like the original as possible.

Tame Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 Not a big conversion, but I gave the Sanguinary Priest a Jump Pack, and magnetized him, giving him a yellowish power sword (to represent Valour's Edge) and a Bolt Pistol as an alternate set of wargear: http://i.imgur.com/hk84CcM.jpg http://i.imgur.com/s7FYPzO.jpg http://i.imgur.com/YiUbxTp.jpg http://i.imgur.com/9VDNomg.jpg Complete album: https://imgur.com/a/bH43r Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/300271-post-blood-angel-special-character-conversions/page/2/#findComment-3910130 Share on other sites More sharing options...
LutherMax Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 You beat me to it - I'm doing something very similar with mine :) What size magnet did you use for the right wrist, 2mm x 1mm?

Tame Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 Yeah, I usually magnetize the arms with 2x2mm on both sides, but on the wrists it was too risky - I didn't want to destroy the whole wrist - and I used a 2x1. It works fine, although I wouldn't pick up the model by the calice/sword...

appiah4 Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 2mmx1mm works like a charm on wrists, I use them all the time. If you mind the rotation though, you may want to go for some kind of a locking mechanism or stronger magnets. They kind of tend to swivel.

Finn Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 Nothing fancy, just another Dante constructed from Sanguinary Guard bits. http://i921.photobucket.com/albums/ad53/bkubera/DSC_0648_zpse99c34af.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/300271-post-blood-angel-special-character-conversions/page/2/#findComment-3911584 Share on other sites More sharing options...
