nurgling6688 Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 Something is coming to Mengel Miniatures and this forum topic soon... "We were the Emperor's Retribution. Hurtled half the galaxy away to bring his wayward son to justice... ...but none of us were prepared for the truth of the matter. None of us were prepared for Phall." - Unknown Sergeant Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/315717-the-viith-legion-the-emperors-retribution-termi-done/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrotherCaptainArkhan Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 I normally despise threads that start without pictures of miniatures, but that's an awesome teaser so this is the exception. Be lying if I said I wasn't keen to see what comes next :) May I ask how you got the 40k-style font?

nurgling6688 Posted November 7, 2015 Author Share Posted November 7, 2015 Now that it's the 7th I'm allowed to talk about this. GW was kind enough to send me an advance review copy of the new Heresy game to review for my site. I'll have content up all next week and probably the week after too. Here's a small teaser of what I've been doing with it for the couple of days I've had it. http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i317/tylerrox6688/Mobile%20Uploads/image_zpsaqzsycof.jpg I'll post more soon!

nurgling6688 Posted November 8, 2015 Author Share Posted November 8, 2015 Thanks! Here are some quick shots of one of the Cataphracti I put together. I gave him lightning claws because they just look so darn cool, not sure if they were the best choice game wise. http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i317/tylerrox6688/Mobile%20Uploads/image_zps4ll4bnw0.jpg http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i317/tylerrox6688/Mobile%20Uploads/image_zps4ll4bnw0.jpg http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i317/tylerrox6688/Mobile%20Uploads/image_zpsoa1x5weh.jpg http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i317/tylerrox6688/Mobile%20Uploads/image_zpsiir9ycww.jpg I really like how my deck plate bases for Phall are coming out. I'll go over how I made them in my tutorial.

hushrong Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 Cataphractii with lightning claws always look cool. He'll look even cooler when you paint him!

Urauloth Posted November 16, 2015 Share Posted November 16, 2015 Incredible work. Love the bases, too. (also, lightning claws on that terminator were definitely the right call.) I've been wondering about getting another BaC set to Phall-theme at some point, and seeing this is not helping me make the sensible decision. ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/315717-the-viith-legion-the-emperors-retribution-termi-done/#findComment-4226684 Share on other sites More sharing options...

nurgling6688 Posted November 17, 2015 Author Share Posted November 17, 2015 Now that the cats out of the bag I can share some of my current progress pics with you guys. He's still very WIP. Still working on gold and the red is only shaded. http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i317/tylerrox6688/Mobile%20Uploads/image_zpspd4e59w4.jpg http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i317/tylerrox6688/Mobile%20Uploads/image_zpsjxju95ud.jpg http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i317/tylerrox6688/Mobile%20Uploads/image_zpsri04wzvl.jpg Turns out finding a good shade of gold to go on top of yellow is tricky. Went through a lot of trial and error on the gold so far.
