+ Sons of Dorn Challenge the 1st +

[Slips]

I might have something to show by tonight!

 

I've got 4+ hours of podcasts (again) so that means Zen Painting Mode will be engaged!

[Stercus]

Evening all. Here is my contribution to a truly excellent thread. Hope it passes muster.

I give you: Harpus Goethe, first commander of the Gatekeepers chapter, dutiful successors of the Imperial Fists.

I need to do something with the base and there's probably a few odds and ends that I could tidy up, but overall I'm pretty pleased with him. So much so i fact, that he now resides as my profile pic.

[deathspectersgt7]

Smashing Stercus.

[Stercus]

Cheers mate. Much appreciated.

[Bob Hunk]

Excellent work Stercus, I especially love the shield. Keep 'em coming guys!

I really need to get a move on now. *looks impatiently at curing rubber moulds on desk*

[Lachdannan]

Looking good Stercus, big fan of the heraldry on that shield. A very nice touch.

[Slips]

So, not really bad news but, yesterday I was supposed to paint up a Mini for this.

 

Well, a Migraine decided to rear its ugly head so no painting was had. So far today I'm feeling ok so I might get it done soon.

[Lachdannan]

Never give up Slipstreams! Though there is still plenty of time left to paint. Just make sure you leave yourself some room for the ETL to paint up some Fists for the 30k sub-forum ;)

[Stercus]

Cheers Lachdannan, glad you like it. The yellow on the shield is about was much as I can cope with, thus explaining why I've plumped for a successor chapter.

@slipstream, sorry to hear about a migraine attack, I used to be battered by them too. Hope It clears out quickly.

[deathspectersgt7]

Should have mine done tonite,Been dragging my feet on all my projects lately.

[nortran11]

DONE!!!!....I am REALLY liking the way Vorn Hagen turned out.

 

First up is Sergeant Garadon.....

 

 

Garadon is wielding Spartean in his left hand. In game, he will most likely just be used as a standard squad sergeant.

 

Next up is Chapter Master Vorn Hagen

 

 

The Chapter Master came together from bashing a finecast Pedro Kantor and the Space Marines Commander box. I am really happy with the results. He is armed with a heavy bolter and power fist.

 

And finally.....

A group shot

Very nice going. Those are a couple of nice additions to your force. The poses are very good and fluid as well.

[Stercus]

Nice work nortran. Some good looking models there.

[Machine God]

@Dosjetka - Have you challenged the Crimson Fists and the Black Templars?

 

Are they not Sons of Dorn also?

[deathspectersgt7]

Finally finished Arluin.

I like him. Where's that helmet from?

[deathspectersgt7]

Phalanx Warder kit (FW)

[Stercus]

Very nice.

[Bernard The slayer]

These all look so cool! Should have my Garadon finished soon.

[Bernard The slayer]

Done! Ive noticed that almost every Garadon I've seen has that exact same 'pointy' powerfist. Interesting. Anyway, heres My take on him

And here's my  custom fists symbol and squad markings, since the Imperial Fist symbol is my second least favorite legion symbol.

Really need to step up my game here. Been thinking about a good story to write. Think I'll go with an exploration in just how my Imperial Fists successor enforces and perpetuates a worldwide state of war on their home world.

 

Through scout exercises. :)

[Lachdannan]

@Bernard The slayer: Very nice Garadon. I really like the face you have got there. He looks like he means business!

 

@BattleBrotherJohn: What an excellent model. Very smooth paint job, really well done. For some reason I am really taken with that backpack, the old 2nd Ed one. Did that come with the model? Or is that an additional modification? Great work anyways!

 

Less than a day left for everyone else who is yet to finish! Best of luck!

[Gresiloth]

This guy is my offering, sadly not finished in time for the 1st May deadline (if that still stands) but I'll post an update when finished.
