Olis Posted April 7, 2017 Author Share Posted April 7, 2017 That thing is going to have to do some seriously low passes to get those bad boys in range. ;) Quiet 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aeternus Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 That thing is going to have to do some seriously low passes to get those bad boys in range. With a longer range than HB and Reapers, now you can fry your enemies in style and safety! Vokite always has your back (or rear armour) :P Just wish you could keep them firing in one continuous beam and swoop along the ground, scythe style :D Reyner and bluntblade 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

STC Logisengine Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 Imagine the Landraider Crusader - now Exchange the boltguns in the sponsons for Calivers, 6 per sponson, and the assaultcannons for a pair of Culverins.. and the multimelta for a Culverin..

Forward Assist Posted April 9, 2017 Share Posted April 9, 2017 Slightly random musing. The plasma cannon is rumoured to be returning to it 2nd edition roots with the old 'low' and 'high' power settings, which was tremendously fun back in the day. Do you think we could see Volkite culverins getting a similar treatment? Perhaps 'low' would be the fusillade of shots we have at the moment whilst 'high' would be a beam weapon?

Would it's strength change? Beam can be quite nasty. Multiply that by 10 and the dice bucket that's already full could potentially overflow with the right lines of fire Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forward Assist Posted April 9, 2017 Share Posted April 9, 2017 Dunno, in two minds. Maybe higher strength but less range or same range lower strength? Can see the pros and cons of both sides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loquille Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 Just finished Mr Volkite. Lovely model, even if I did ruin one of the cables. http://i757.photobucket.com/albums/xx212/loquile/IMAG0888_zpsf00e6ye2.jpg http://i757.photobucket.com/albums/xx212/loquile/IMAG0884_zpsour34tlo.jpg http://i757.photobucket.com/albums/xx212/loquile/IMAG0886_zps32qgl7c5.jpg And I know the rules state I have to have a dead Night Lord to go with a Dark Angel, but you can have a WiP NL Volkite guy instead. http://i757.photobucket.com/albums/xx212/loquile/IMAG0887_zpssdbmwrze.jpg Forward Assist, Bob Hunk, Olis and 5 others 8 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aeternus Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 Had a brief attempt at making volkite-in-action, but I have to say not entirely happy with how it came out. Can't think of any proper way to show the central 'white' beam, and the large 'red' glow around it, in a 3d manner. Had a try at the rings as well (the only way I could think of) so all together it kinda looks passable, from a distance. Still need to drill a socket in the neck for it to slot into. http://i1072.photobucket.com/albums/w376/Aeternas/Mobile%20Uploads/IMG_20170414_000505_zpsprf4c8tq.jpg?1492164105458&1492164106394&1492164112060&1492164120805http://i1072.photobucket.com/albums/w376/Aeternas/Mobile%20Uploads/IMG_20170414_000751_zpseblkydxw.jpg?1492164105458&1492164106393&1492164112059&1492164120802 marine7312000, Forward Assist, Ramell and 2 others 5 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlo Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 So I finally enter the club brothers and sisters: It may be a model from 10,000 years later technically, but here is my Arch Magos Dominus: Luther Ionsight http://i1380.photobucket.com/albums/ah177/nevscorner/IMG_20170424_232309_zpsgclddp6a.jpg bluntblade and Olis 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doctor Perils Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 @Aeternas: I love the effect you've done - while I agree it would be difficult to show an inner white beam surrounded by red, perhaps you could paint some variations in intensity of the red/white along the length of the beam? Alternatively, you could try an irridescent medium, though I'm not sure quite how well that would work... @Charlo: Archmagos Ironsight looks pretty good :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arendious Posted April 26, 2017 Share Posted April 26, 2017 @ Aeternas - Maybe use red-tinted transparency sheets cut into a series of decreasing circles? I used to use something similar for spinning props on model aircraft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
