Sororita Katya Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 I have seen a lot of people asking for alternate models, and as our range is limited in what it can take from GW, I thought it would be good to pin a post for all models that could be used as "counts as" for those of us who can't mould or redesign metal (such as myself) and for those that don't want to change their original models. Mainly for stuff that you can't buy from GW anymore, but anything that would suit the theme of our Sororitas please post Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/321451-alternative-sisters/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
*Furyou Miko Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 Tentatively approved, although the pin may be dropped pending a reply from the Adeptus Terra. Edit: OK, that was fast. This topic will be Pinned for the next two weeks, after which point the pin will be removed and a link to it placed in the Resources thread here. Usual thread necromancy rules will not be applied to this topic if and only if the new post has a new alternate model suggestion.

DanPesci Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 Found this on BOLS whilst searching for alt sisters models: The eisenkern valkir models combined with female headsets seem to work pretty nicely (the bolters look oversized on them compared to on a marine, which i like): http://cdn.bols.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/2015_02_11_19_13_43_by_yorknecromancer-d8hlbxb.jpg Orignal Post: http://www.belloflostsouls.net/2015/02/plastic-sisters-wait.html Eisenkern models: http://dreamforge-games.com/products/eisenkern-valkir-assault-trooper-redo http://dreamforge-games.com/products/eisenkern-valkir-heavy-troopers-redo http://dreamforge-games.com/products/eisenkern-valkir-support-troopers-redo Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/321451-alternative-sisters/#findComment-4243142 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nomus Sardauk Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 Oh wow, those Valkir Sisters look great, no more nonsensical, counterproductive boobplate for a start! I always thought Power Armour should look at least a little bulky or oversized on non-enhanced humans, and this does that perfectly. :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/321451-alternative-sisters/#findComment-4243176 Share on other sites More sharing options...

*Furyou Miko Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 Yes, those are standard Marine bolters. Incidentally, You read it here first. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/321451-alternative-sisters/#findComment-4243601 Share on other sites More sharing options...

The extra money the actual GW models cost is worth it. Me neither. They could be used as a Death Cult Assassain, given enough work (the bare flesh painted or make to look like a body glove or syn skin, if that's still a thing) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/321451-alternative-sisters/#findComment-4315331 Share on other sites More sharing options...
*Furyou Miko Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 Every time I see someone bring up the Raging Hormones stuff, my immediate assumption is: This is either person who knows nothing about Sisters and wants to be helpful, or a person who just wants to taunt us and be a troll.

Knight of the Raven Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 Guess Raging Heroes is pandering to slaaneshi sisters fans.Because these sure look more its handmaidens than the plastic daemonettes do.

Blagon Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 I've made a bunch of sisters with the Valkir + female heads combo. They are pretty awesome. The armor looks a bit bulky, but the Valkir models are great to build so it's worth it. They come with some longer "heavy rifles" that I use as meltaguns. I've picked up bits of flamethrowers, combi-meltas, and other stuff to fill in the gaps. One annoying thing is making some with heavy bolters. I don't like how the weapons of the Valkir heavies look. I tried to stitch together a heavy bolter from a devastator squad, but I gave up. http://i.imgur.com/ku4VkkU.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/321451-alternative-sisters/#findComment-4316317 Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheFinisher4Ever Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 Meh, I actually like both the Raging Heroes and the GW sisters. I think the RH counts-as Seraphim are wonderful. As are their standard battle sisters. I plan on getting a bunch to sprinkle in to my sisters force.

DanPesci Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 Think the raging heroes one are OK as you say, when sprinkled about. I much prefer their models when they havent gone totally over the top with the proportions and puttings nuns in catsuits etc, but some of the models are downright daft. Saying that, the daemonette range they seem to be doing does look excelle......***PURGED*** Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/321451-alternative-sisters/#findComment-4317076 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blagon Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 In the TGG2 range, most of the unique characters have sexualized poses (flaired out hips, etc). Some of the squads look pretty good though and have more of an action type pose.

Some of the basic troopers and !Seraphim look OK, but any goodwill or openmindedness I might have had was quashed by the hyper stupid character sculpts combined with what seems like the entire internet telling me how great they are. It's too late; I hate them. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/321451-alternative-sisters/#findComment-4318362 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knight of the Raven Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 This picture reminds me of a post of Veteran Sergent's. "Lefthandedness is tantamount to heresy.

The other four that come with the kit are: • A weird dual-wield machine gun thing • A grenade launcher with a rotary clip • A laser cannon looking thing, which would be cool for space marines but Sisters use HEAT RAYS because heretics need to be burned • A thing that kind of looks like a heavy support weapon but without the boxiness or bulk of a 40K heavy bolter.
