Mard Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 Hi GuysAvatar and allegiance changed! So I've decided to wade back into regular 40k with my long time love the sisters of battle.Now I used to have these ladies back in my 2nd ed teenage days and after a trip to my folks I've found the shoebox they used to live in. After a wonderful Dettol bath and scrub they are ready for a new paintjob and a step into the modern game world.Can you imagine this used to be 1500pts?http://i1316.photobucket.com/albums/t613/John_Hammond/SoB40k/20151217_092735_zpscg37mb0p.jpgIs this still a legal Canoness? The new(ish?) ones seem pretty different.http://i1316.photobucket.com/albums/t613/John_Hammond/SoB40k/20151217_092749_zpswcqt3kwe.jpgI'll be jumping on ebay hunting for Rhinos to match/Immolators as well as more troops. Going to be a complete noob for a while rebuilding this army into something modern, so please forgive me for many, many questions I'll be asking while building this project.Also my main system is still epic, which is going through a resurgence in Australia at the moment, so I'll be re-creating the force in both Epic scale with some dalliances into BFG as well.First test scheme and 40k mini for scalehttp://i1316.photobucket.com/albums/t613/John_Hammond/SOB/20151217_080002_zpszszuinp8.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/317248-mards-sob-journey/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warsmith Aznable Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 I think that Canoness is OOP now. The range has been slowly shrinking over the years, unfortunately. I have that model for a Dominion Superior, but the big Ecclesiarchy symbol is missing (was a rescue fig.) Welcome back to the faithful!

*Furyou Miko Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 The Canoness is out of production, but still perfectly legal - WYSIWYG, I'd say Power Maul and Combi-Flamer, which isn't the worst wargear set up for a Canoness.

MrFlutterPie Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 The old school Canoness makes a great sister superior with a combi-flamer which is both legal and useful on the table top.

Mard Posted December 17, 2015 Author Share Posted December 17, 2015 So it was pouring rain yesterday so I wasn't able to go outside and undercoat anything major, so while watching Netflix I managed to work on a few small epic things.Objective markers in Epic play a major role and though a token can suffice I always like to do something in theme with the army.So here are two out of my three objectives, both still a WIPThe first one is the remains of a shrine to some forgotten imperial saint, I still need to source some kind of tiny green tufts for this one, or i may have some sisters or Inquisitor in need of aid.http://i1316.photobucket.com/albums/t613/John_Hammond/SOB/received_10153819627098421_zpsubeggnaq.jpegThe second is a Death watch retrieval team in need of extraction, I'm still working on the doors for the rhino so currently they are missing.http://i1316.photobucket.com/albums/t613/John_Hammond/SOB/received_10153820014778421_zpshiq6qrcb.jpeg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/317248-mards-sob-journey/#findComment-4255243 Share on other sites More sharing options...

WarriorFish Posted December 20, 2015 Share Posted December 20, 2015 The Epic stuff is, well, epic! :D When do we get to see some 40k sized models painted up, I'm assuming in the same colour scheme?

Mard Posted December 20, 2015 Author Share Posted December 20, 2015 I'm hoping to slap some paint on my 40k gals this week, time permitting, and definitely the same paint scheme.Just sourced another old school Immolator from a friend, now to keep hunting more gals and maybe an exorcist or two.

WarriorFish Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Very nice work, the highlights on the armour give the black some depth and topped off with a well painted face. An army like this would look great on the table :tu: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/317248-mards-sob-journey/#findComment-4276911 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eddie Orlock Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 I think she needs more gold trim and a red bolter to better match your Avatar. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/317248-mards-sob-journey/#findComment-4277185 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aqui Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Looks good! However, that picture of the Sister next to the EPIC scale models just made me think of what films might be shown in the 41st Millenium. Attack of the 60 foot Sororitas!, perhaps?
