Brother Dallo Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 One should rather die than be betrayed. There is no deceit in death. It delivers precisely what it has promised. Betrayal though... betrayal is the willful slaughter of hope. http://i.imgur.com/jyeEr8Ol.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikhalLeNoir Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 Is this a two headed eagle on the powerfist or might this be a winged 2? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Dallo Posted September 29, 2015 Author Share Posted September 29, 2015 Dolchiate Remembrancer: Now that would be telling. You'll just have to wait and see. There are a few clues, if you are willing to look. MikhalLeNoir: Sorry to disappoint, it's a double headed eagle, so no 2nd legion stuff, at least for the meantime.

Brother Dallo Posted October 20, 2015 Author Share Posted October 20, 2015 Sorry it's been a while. Real life has been a bit hectic. Just a very early PIP shot. Apologies for the photo quality. It's just silver basecoat washed with Nuln Oil at the moment. http://i.imgur.com/HkpcChtl.jpg Can you guess their legion yet? Dallo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brother Dallo Posted October 21, 2015 Author Share Posted October 21, 2015 No, that would be too obvious. Feel free to try again. Dallo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ty_Tyrant89 Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 I'm going Iron Hands?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Dallo Posted October 21, 2015 Author Share Posted October 21, 2015 Not Iron Hands either Ty_Tyrant89. Like I said, it's early painting in progress, so they won't be silver once they are done. The next PIP picture will give it away, but until then, feel free to keep guessing guys. Dallo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brother Dallo Posted October 21, 2015 Author Share Posted October 21, 2015 Barabbas Sogalon got it right. This log is going to focus on the illustrious IIIrd Legion at Isstvan III. Stay tuned for more PIP pictures. Dallo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Dallo Posted November 21, 2015 Author Share Posted November 21, 2015 I was able to get a break from work to spend some time modelling today. Here is my Palatine Prefector. He's the first member of a squad of Palatine Blades I intend to build. The plan is to have a mix of phoenix spears, power weapons and charnabal sabres, where every member has a unique weapon. I'll probably end up magnetizing their backpacks. I'd like some help with the posing. Option 1 http://i.imgur.com/8yN1akhl.jpg?1 Or Option 2? http://i.imgur.com/sF6EC4Ll.jpg?1 http://i.imgur.com/fzEzS7zl.jpg?1 Feel free to suggest a 3rd pose. His left arm, head and right hand are unglued. C&C welcome. Dallo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrBear Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 Hard to say really, but the first option looks a little better to me. There is just something about that pose that I like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kastor Krieg Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 2nd pose, just place something in his palm. I used the same for one of my Templar Vets, placed the Orb of Antioch in his palm, obviously :v Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dizzyeye01 Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 Any way you could position the spear to look like he is driving it into a fallen enemy. Or you could change the empty hand to be a pointing one like he is pointing out an officer or something and challenging them to a duel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Dallo Posted November 21, 2015 Author Share Posted November 21, 2015 For pose 2 I was trying to achieve a duality to the model, where he could either be reaching out an outstretched hand to someone who needs his help, or he could be beckoning an enemy forward to fight him. I'm not sure if the model achieves this in its current incarnation. Any suggestions as to what he should be holding? Cheers. Dallo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ovidius Incertus Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 That spear is really cool. Is it the cross piece just the one from a normal GK halberd with the blade removed and two combat blades attached? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Dallo Posted November 23, 2015 Author Share Posted November 23, 2015 It is indeed. Glad you like it. I was going for a trident-ish vibe, but found that three blades was a bit clunky. The perfectionist in me wants to redo it, as one blade is a mm or so higher than the other, but it should suffice for tabletop. Like I said, he's the first of my Palatine Blades, and I want them to all be individual with unique weapons, whether they be trophy weapons won from other legions, or otherwise.
