Slave to Darkness Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 One thing that bugs me about the Cypher mini, the supposed lion sword will look like a penknife compared to a primarch now (and the Wolf helm of Russ would be like a skullcap).

Jarl Kjaran Coldheart Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 maybe it was broken, like the Dark Angels honor...

MaveriK Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 Maverik. I am relishing being able to see what you have up your sleeve! my submission... I'm gonna give him original black armour with subtle green highlights, gold trims on the decor, white/ivory on the robe...

Captain Semper Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 Looking great - especially that he has no robes... After 10k years they'd be rags anyway... Let's see him painted! :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/321584-pre-etl-fun-who-is-cypher-build-comp-winner-announced/page/2/#findComment-4370232 Share on other sites More sharing options...
RikuEru Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 Does it have to be sheathed in a proper sheath? Or can it be wrapped in ward-rune wrapped bindings with seals or so, aswell?

Rand Winters Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 I am thinking about using Zameon Gydrael from the Deatwatch set, but converting him a bit. The blade and the plamsa gun, the cowl covering half his face, the robes, and the DA iconography. He really won't need much conversion overall i think. Would that be a valid mini to use for pledging Cypher?

alakinsky Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 Now I may be half dazed from Amon Amarth yesterday... I get to see them May 17th in Seattle! It'll be my second time seeing them, I'm so pumped! And Maverik, stellar work as always! That is looking very good!

Would that be a valid mini to use for pledging Cypher? I'm not sure if you mean for the ETL but as long as it is readily recognizable as Cypher (i.e. a DA with a bolt pistol, a plasma pistol and a large sheathed sword) it's fine for ETL purposes.:) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/321584-pre-etl-fun-who-is-cypher-build-comp-winner-announced/page/2/#findComment-4370312 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to get too far off topic (Im a mod and all, Im supposed to be well behaved) it was my second time seeing them as well. Enjoy the show, I actually enjoyed it more than the Deceiver show I went to back in 2014 Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/321584-pre-etl-fun-who-is-cypher-build-comp-winner-announced/page/2/#findComment-4370354 Share on other sites More sharing options...
SW1 Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 Well I've converted mine. Used the chaplain from B@C, a hooded SM head, sliced the arm off a bloodclaw holding a bolt pistol and the sword is the one from the B@C kit with the hand replaced by the end of a stave from a PA Grey Knight kit.

Dantay VI Posted April 21, 2016 Author Share Posted April 21, 2016 I have an idea in mind, but not sure when I will get the chance to order the bits :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/321584-pre-etl-fun-who-is-cypher-build-comp-winner-announced/page/2/#findComment-4371394 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dantay VI Posted April 21, 2016 Author Share Posted April 21, 2016 RikuEru, as long as the blade as some kind of covering, so rune wrappings should be fine. You want to sketch the idea on paper and post it up?

codyrstuart Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 Here is my Cypher so far. Still need to make a scabbard for the Lion Sword, but it should be ready for paint after that.http://i1376.photobucket.com/albums/ah7/codyrstuart/Mobile%20Uploads/20160420_215315_zpsqxqcjfio.jpg I think the statue under his foot is a nice touch for our dress wearing brethren.

codyrstuart Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 How are you making the scabbard Cody? I've got a grey knight sword that I'm gonna cut the blade off of, then cut some styrene to fit.
