Soldier of Dorn Posted May 8, 2016 Share Posted May 8, 2016 That Ogryn with the heavy bolter looks awesome. It really does. Awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ch@oZ Posted May 8, 2016 Share Posted May 8, 2016 I'll admit, that Ogryn is one of the "just right" conversions, nicely done. Where did you get that belted heavy bolter, by the way? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KBA Posted May 8, 2016 Author Share Posted May 8, 2016 The heavy bolter is from the recently released Mars Pattern Heavy Bolter set from Forge World :). And thanks for the kudos, folks :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KBA Posted May 9, 2016 Author Share Posted May 9, 2016 Militia? You have my attention buddy as im doing them for etl Militia indeed :)  While most Rogue Traders would probably have the support of the SA, Rogue Trader Khodessa and his noble house have their militia along with Titan and Astartes legion support.  Speaking of which:  *******************************************  http://s32.postimg.org/5kv4ikdqd/image.jpg  http://s32.postimg.org/yamlsy745/image.jpg  http://s32.postimg.org/pi11riwlh/image.jpg  http://s32.postimg.org/kbpwghhtx/image.jpg  *******************************************  Eidolon's head still needs a little tweaking and setting into the body, and the knees need GS work, but this is coming along :). Huge thanks to the community for sticking me on the right path with the head suggestions, and binary, for suggesting Eidolon's perfect head. This one feels right. Another change: The metal navigator has been swapped out for a Titan Princeps. I figured since this force will have Titan support, a Princeps would be the better representative on the dais. Plus, it is a resin model and fits much better with the detailing of everybody else :)  As for the militia troops, Japs, I was going to go with modified Scions, but man are the genestealer hybrids (4th gen human-looking ones) a tempting alternative. I'll be using the Survivors of The Dark Age and Abhuman Helots provenances of war, so the odd facial structure of the hybrids might even work to my advantage. I'm unsure which way to go on this, so I'll probably pound out a test bash.  The current direction of the Militia:  http://s32.postimg.org/uuuhje9vp/image.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soldier of Dorn Posted May 9, 2016 Share Posted May 9, 2016 That Rogue Trader looks Rogue Trader-esque (1st ed, I mean, not a Rogue Trader, though that's not to say he doesn't look like a Rogue Trader, because he does, but rather that he looks like something from Rogue Trader. Am I making sense? Probably not.) Anyways, I like it a lot. :tu: Â Love the Militia, particularly the Brettonian heads. Hope you stocked up on them before they got squatted.

KBA Posted May 9, 2016 Author Share Posted May 9, 2016 Yes! Eidolon's head is absolutely perfect! I am really lookin forward to seeing that painted!! Â Me too! I may get this done for the ETL, probably as a zero points submission as I'd have zero clue what to count it as. Maybe something Mechanicum? But in all likelihood this will get done afterward. I'll be taking my Reaver Titan 100% seriously. Â Damn, that's quite the Rogue Trader KBA, nice job :tu: Â Thanks IHF :). If you ever feel like designing a Baneblade tank with some choom, I've a knight volkite weapon and some leviathan chargers sitting around begging to be used ;) Â Do you mind if I steal that idea completelyDo I mind if you are inspired to create a neato Rogue Trader borrowing elements from your friend, KBA? No, not one bit :PÂ That Rogue Trader looks Rogue Trader-esque (1st ed, I mean, not a Rogue Trader, though that's not to say he doesn't look like a Rogue Trader, because he does, but rather that he looks like something from Rogue Trader.

I think I get what you're putting down :). They're gone?! :O. That's scary. I'll have to take stock.. Hopefully I'll have enough for at least a couple grenadier squads.

I think I get what you're putting down . They're gone?! . That's scary. I'll have to take stock.. Hopefully I'll have enough for at least a couple grenadier squads. Yep, unfortunately. It was big news a month or so ago. If you're lucky you might still be able to find some on Ebay, but beyond that they're gone. I do love me some Rogue Trader style stuff, though. I like the modern clean look, but at the end of the day I'll pick the 80s goth-punk fatalistic humor over it any day of the week. Can't exactly say why, either.

oldschoolsavant Posted May 9, 2016 Share Posted May 9, 2016 Heh, I tried Scion heads on Bret bodies, and it seems your opposite method looks swish too. (head stash, check !) As for the RT, smashing. Absolutely spot on, but can you get paint on it by August, hmmm ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KrautScientist Posted May 9, 2016 Share Posted May 9, 2016 That Rogue Trader and his entourage are such a fantastic ensemble -- brilliant stuff! The head really sells the model -- I would never have come up with the idea of using Eidolon's head, but now it seems like using any other head would have been plain impossible :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daemon2027 Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 The rogue trader is great, the head fit perfectly, and his crew look good next to him. I would personally try and remove the vampires fangs if possible, but that's just me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
