XIth: Wardens of Light - Destined to be forgotten

[Athrawes]

These look superb Mikhal. It's a shame we live so far away, I'd love to be able to get some pictures of your Wardens and my Lightning Bearers fighting over some ruins, so that I could play with the picture in photoshop.

 

Again, great work.

Thx mate. Yeah. Really sad. The closest frater is AO.

But for the battle pics, we could photoshop them nontheless ;)

[MikhalLeNoir]

Yes. Battle of Calth hit my floor. Now I will built some neat marines ;)

[Thousand Eyes]

You need to get some army shots as they look really good grouped together. 

Lets you take in the full effect.

[MikhalLeNoir]

:) thx mate. I will make some more for you. Although the army consists of many unpainted midels and only 1 fully assembled squad;)

By the way. Just working on this right now

Some of the pictures are a little blurry on the Tacticals but from what I can make out they look really good.

[MikhalLeNoir]

Thx. The blur is there to hide the errors:)

 

Naa. I just need a new objective so that i can zoom better with my cam. Noe it focus mist of the time in the front marine and the others are lost to the blur.

[MikhalLeNoir]

Well more WiP-Pics from my BoC - Terminators. I think of adding cloth to their arms or a cloak to the boss. What do you think? Belts are not fully finished.

The fight between the two brothers reaches its peak. The Wolf King on his knees, the avatar of light above him. Prepare for the unevitable conclusion.

 

Thx to Aituarmanas for this piece. Really like the whole atmosphere. If you want to see more of his work or want to comission something, hen look here http://aituarmanas.deviantart.com/

Hey ho, added an extra drawback to the wardens but the rules are not overworked yet.

 

"Terminators can only be taken if a terran marine is leader of the army. Never if the leader is from caerbannog and a pariah. If the army leader is the primarch himself, Gwalchavad, then this rule is not active, as a primarch wouldn't limit himself."

 

 

 

And altough not for the broverse I have here the next ic for the canonverse where Russ fights against Gwalchavad

Saaaweeeeeeet!

[MikhalLeNoir]

So, as it is actually to cold and rainy to prime my figures at hand, I need to just built new ones until there there is the right time (should try out my damn airbrush, but I have no Idea. Got it at a super market sale....)

 

Well enough complaining. I thought I built a veteran squad next and here is the veteran seargent.

C&C is always welcome.

Question for the veterans: cloae combat beasts with dual tonfas or infantery hunter with 2 heavy bolter/ plasma gun? Not sure atm.

Edited November 25, 2015 by MikhalLeNoir

[AlphariusOmegon108]

What kind of backpack will that beast of a model have?

 

And.. Plasma.. Bring the light to the enemy, with superheated mini-suns ;)

[Thousand Eyes]

I always love how you draw your pieces from all over the place to make a completed model look just right,

[Jehan-Reznor]

Ah those Calth miniatures will increase your army nicely, i am using them all for mine, just changing the color of the bases so i can still use them with the boardgame.

The only annoying thing is that you can outfit your terminators with close combat weapons or ranged weapons but not enough but only enough pauldrons  for one choice.

 

Those legs are those from a confrontation figure?

[MikhalLeNoir]

Thx guys for the likings^^

 

@AO: Yeah, we will use the power of the sun^^. And his backpack depends on the veteran squad, if I give them Jumppacks, so will he get one^^

 

@Thousand Eyes: Thx mate, I try my best to mix parts together. To many unused bits lying arround.

 

@Jehan-Reznor: Yap, Calth let my Legion explode...now I just need time and a dry moment outside, so that I can prime some of my minis. The legs are from Kabuki. They have those praetorians which are simply custodes.

 

 

And here I present you the next mini as I had today time to build one and had no Idea for my veterans :.)

 

Le Moritat Mac Bethad mac Findlàich:

 

I am in blood

Stepp'd in so far that, should I wade no more,

Returning were as tedious as go o'er.

Strange things I have in head, that will to hand;

Which must be acted ere they may be scann'd.

Sorry for the poor pics. had only my smartphone cam at hand.

He is not quite finished.Shoulderpads and His scarf are missing, will do it, when I do all of the missing scarf for my recent models.

 

What do you say? C&C always welcome. (His skirt is a sunskirt and therefore fireresistant. Rule of cool beats physics)

Edited November 27, 2015 by MikhalLeNoir

[Sigismund229]

Very cool looking model, in keeping with the Wardens of Blings attitude(rule of cool beats all)

[MikhalLeNoir]

Yeah, my secret goal: Bring a whole legion with rule of cool on the table.

[MikhalLeNoir]

And here we go again, actually I am building the veteran squad belonging to that nice veteran seargent. The base is built, belts, arms, and weapons are missing. Still haven't decided on the weapns yet. One question on this occassion: why do they have as standard a bolter, boltgun and a chainsword, but if i give them powersweapon, the bollter will be removed....makes no sense (rulewise okay, but wielding wise?)

 

And for the later painting part i want to have your suggestion: as they are veterans, I want them to stand out a bit. I thought I exchange their colors a bit. blue belt and red skirt, facemask and shoulderpads. so the base colors stay the same, but would that be okay? alternaite would be maybe white belt or white skirt. cause white is the color Gwalchavad wears. So what do you think?

 

ah....here the pics.

So I hope you have some hints for the path which lays before me.

 

Over and out^^

[Skalpynock]

White skirts would look ace.

 

Now, how the hell am I suppose to out-bling the Wardens, with cloaks and little pauldron-shield, and 75% less gold?

I try white, if there are no other suggestions. But I am veeeeeery bad at painting white. Any suggestions?

 

And as no one can rival the masters of bling when it comes to bling, there is room enough for other traiths like "shiny" "glowy" "omg my eyes are burning". Just add up the gold parts or spray acid in the eyes of every viewer ;)

Tis a vile thing to die, my gracious lord,

When men are unprepared and look not for it.

 

When beggars die, there are no comets seen;

The heavens themselves blaze forth the death of princes.

Well thx to the fast work of aituarmanas, you can see the death of Gwalchavad, before my stories have reached the point. But I didn't want to hold that pic back so...

 

Hope you like it

amazing. Simply breath taking

Even better and more dramatic than I imagined it.

There goes the son who wanted nothing more than to bring peace into a galaxy of war.

Rest in peperonis. :(
