KBA Posted March 20, 2016 Author Share Posted March 20, 2016 Whipped up a conversion on the BaC termie character. I wasn't feeling the cape on the model, and one thing led to another: http://s28.postimg.org/sfal1vnz1/image.jpg While I like that helmet, I thought I'd try a MK III for fun, and now I'm not sure: http://s28.postimg.org/l0l99i23h/image.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pearson73 Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 Nice conversion, I'd go for the first helmet myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GhostMalone Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 Dude love it! I'd go for number 1 personally but no 2 has an interesting take for a SoH. Gotta love your stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olis Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 You have good taste, brother. A little bit of choom never hurt anyone... behind the muzzle. Cool conversion brother. :tu: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fenbain Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 Love the conversion! While I prefer helmet one, I don't think either of the options are sitting right in the armour. You might need to some more cutting inside the armour to allow room or shave away part of the helmet to let it sit more naturally :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KBA Posted March 21, 2016 Author Share Posted March 21, 2016 Thanks for the comments, brothers :). Fenbain, I definitely see what you're saying. Little tinkering should do the trick. I ended up building some of his friends: http://s22.postimg.org/8r09ev2nl/image.jpg http://s22.postimg.org/odris8gfl/image.jpg http://s22.postimg.org/epe2p3lm9/image.jpg http://s22.postimg.org/68eke6gxd/image.jpg http://s22.postimg.org/cjjruli5t/image.jpg The Cataphractii plastic kit is nice, but I found it pretty limiting overall, pose-wise. Got to factor in gravity with the pteruges. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brother Pheidias Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 *snip* The Cataphractii plastic kit is nice, but I found it pretty limiting overall, pose-wise. Got to factor in gravity with the pteruges. But it does add to the feeling of heaviness of the suit, so there's a tiny silver lining there. Nice part-usage too.

KBA Posted March 27, 2016 Author Share Posted March 27, 2016 Snuck in some bitzing time today, and got a good head start on my Rogue Trader Militant Khodessa. Very early WIP: http://s24.postimg.org/6v8vppw39/image.jpg http://s24.postimg.org/6jrfcyfn9/image.jpg Having fun with this one :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Commissar Molotov Posted March 27, 2016 Share Posted March 27, 2016 Wow, very cool. I really like the execution of this model. Would also work very well for an Inquisitor. I'll be filing this away for reference! (And following closely, of course!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KBA Posted March 27, 2016 Author Share Posted March 27, 2016 Khodessa has some friends: emissaries of the Mechanicum and Navigator Houses. I also went with a WFB vampire countess, as her costume fits with Khodessa's quite well. I was going to use a dark elder slave, but I always found those to be overly gratuitous. Now, to pull out that shiny new GS cable maker :) http://s21.postimg.org/wdw9ak6rb/image.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olis Posted March 27, 2016 Share Posted March 27, 2016 Will you be altering the collar at all? I find the tall Navy collars from 40k useful in conveying who the person is supposed to be. Epaulettes might be a good idea, too. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dagoth Ur Posted March 27, 2016 Share Posted March 27, 2016 Wow, now that looks quite promising KBA! Astounding stuff all around in this thread, but Khodessa & Co. take the cake! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Epaulettes might be a good idea, too. :) Ive thought of it. As is, it does look a little too vampire countish. I'll have a look in the bitz box! Put the cable maker to good use. I'm using the German brand Bee's putty. Fun to work with! I went to work on a crazy/silly idea that I've had in my head on how this Dias presents Khodessa's Warrent of Trade, his token of Emperor-given power. Some of you may have noticed the Dias is actually positioned backwards. I needed a spot for my cuckoo to pop out of the clock: http://s16.postimg.org/9kt9g588l/image.jpg http://s16.postimg.org/3rj7fkwl1/image.jpg http://s16.postimg.org/fn0w6mwol/image.jpg http://s16.postimg.org/pf85q0wz9/image.jpg http://s16.postimg.org/wjldlbeut/image.jpg http://s16.postimg.org/enalaxhit/image.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KBA Posted March 29, 2016 Author Share Posted March 29, 2016 Threw some guns on the dais! I feel it also really helped balance the platform out: http://s16.postimg.org/ljta6zrh1/image.jpg http://s16.postimg.org/pwwvmj6j9/image.jpg http://s16.postimg.org/bb0t163f9/image.jpg http://s16.postimg.org/ot7pdgfkl/image.jpg http://s16.postimg.org/q1vkz37it/image.jpg I was going to put a pistol in Khodessa's hand, but liked his unarmed, seated pose better. Still, I felt he should have something close by. http://s16.postimg.org/v1t171d5h/image.jpg http://s16.postimg.org/c1yl42c45/image.jpg http://s16.postimg.org/wi4jp6g2d/image.jpg And the mini-chooms are there for Olis.

Daemon2027 Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 I like how the rogue trader is shaping up, the platform is very well armed. What head are you going to use for the rogue trader? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What head are you going to use for the rogue trader?Khodessa heads come in two tempting flavors: http://s21.postimg.org/k1ln32q13/image.jpg http://s21.postimg.org/6i4sxdc1z/image.jpg I really like aspects of both, but am leaning towards the Dark Elf head. It's got that eccentric feel to it that really meshes with the concept of a Rogue Trader in my head. And it plays off the Vampire countess quite well. Speaking of which, I've begun to alter her a little more: http://s21.postimg.org/cx3tu1irr/image.jpg She'll be getting a little more work done, and maybe something done to that face :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
