Mango Polo Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 It's quite old, from back when Prospero was intended as the third book. When prompted, at one of the 2013 FW events, a sculptor showed this WIP/test sculpt. That's also when - I think - we first heard about them sketching out Ahriman's model. More recently though (July FW event), a B&C poster mentioned that Alan was pretty affirmative that we'd see the TS upgrade kits "some time in September". Obviously that didn't quite pan out, but it's just a question of time. I imagine they'll be present at February's event.

Athrawes Posted November 28, 2015 Share Posted November 28, 2015 If you want to go the forgeworld route of thousand sons, it's pretty strait forward to convert the Betrayal at Calth marines to that style. If you get started, this is an easy way to have a core for your army ready by the time the upgrade packs, and specific unit get released alongside Inferno (hopefully) next year. Here are mine from BaC with some minor green stuff work: http://i1088.photobucket.com/albums/i327/nickfayette1/07c5bcaf-9e60-4c6f-b22f-abc1f708d6c2.jpg http://i1088.photobucket.com/albums/i327/nickfayette1/fb91b6b5-610f-4345-a271-bc71d31799a4.jpg http://i1088.photobucket.com/albums/i327/nickfayette1/55d968ff-6ed9-48bb-82c0-9e2fdf6b81db.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/315462-thousand-sons/page/2/#findComment-4237947 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Excessus Posted November 29, 2015 Share Posted November 29, 2015 Yup, that's my exact plan with the BaC box. Athrawes, how did you do the small holes on the shoulders? I've been thinking about how to do those most effectively, just starting out with mine now. Just a drill and GS or?

Athrawes Posted November 29, 2015 Share Posted November 29, 2015 Its just sanding and greenstuff no drilling required, I can put up a tutorial If that would help.

Excessus Posted November 29, 2015 Share Posted November 29, 2015 Sanding and greenstuff? Well I knew GS was involved somehow, but sanding? Now I'm intrigued, a tutorial would be lovely! :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/315462-thousand-sons/page/2/#findComment-4238404 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mango Polo Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 Interesting that they didn't go for the filigree/indented corners like on the prototype; beautiful nonetheless and finally, finally I no longer have an excuse for not doing infantry.

depthcharge12 Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 I'm planning to make all my sorcerers fancy and blinged out. I feel that they should have a sort of ambience or visual draw to them that marks them out from their non psychic or latent brethren. Humor me for this incredibly silly notion, but if I were a sorcerer, I'd be incredibly ambitious and use my sect/cult/chapter to whatever ends I wish. I'd make sure they know who dang well I am. I'd likely still care for my "lesser" brethren, but they'd be tools in my arsenal. I'm a real "A" type black knight personality :P I'd make for a dang good sorcerer or ambitious WB chaplain.

Excessus Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 I think there is a difference in personalities there between them. The captain that i can't remember the name of, that was the leader of the raptora pyrae(the guy that "drove" the titan in the battle for prospero)...I could imagine him with a very archaic armour and "blinged out" generally. Though I can't imagine Ignis from the Ahriman series having a very flamboyant armour set back in the heresy... I'd say it's all up to their characters and how big their egos are... [Edit]: How tired was I when I wrote this post? Several spelling errors and I even got the cult name wrong!

Memento Of Prospero Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 They would definitely have some, as just about all legions have egotistic characters. Now if your chapter was called the pimp brigade, they it would warrant power canes and purple feathered tactical combat hats.

depthcharge12 Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 I was going to include fluff with one of my TS characters that the older cult member swears that the younger, ambitious sorcerer would have been slotted for the IIIrd legion had that member not witnessed the sorcerers birth on Prosperous, automatically making him a Thousand Son :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/315462-thousand-sons/page/2/#findComment-4240930 Share on other sites More sharing options...
