Wow, really coming along well Psycho smile.png Have you got any plans for putting him in some kind of diorama with one of your Imperial Fists?

I thought about it. I don't think so, honestly. After doing a few mock-ups, I'm not really interested in doing a diorama with him right now. Maybe someday, but not now.

Okay I have to ask, what is the model you used? Because that looks awesome. Looks like at least partially a Cataphractii terminator (has those epaulet shouldrepads).

He's mostly just a Cataphractii Terminator, but to the best of my memory the parts break down something like this:

Torso, arms, legs: plastic Cataphractii Terminators. Torso has the tab on which the head normally rests carved out so that the head can fit in. Left arm is the power sword arm with the hand carved away. The grenade harness from that kit was also used, first assembled normally and then cut in half, each section glued to the arm.

Head: Sternguard Veterans (?) with the nub at the bottom slightly shaved down.

Right hand (thunder hammer): Vanguard Veterans

Left hand: Sanguinary Guard

Trophy rack: Chaos Vehicle Upgrade Kit - you know those little "fences" you get in that? The spikes were each individually cut and then reglued onto the Cataphractii back. The extra skull is from one of the new base sets that GW released. I got a few of them from a friend.

Grenades and pouches: Bitz box. Just normal grenades and pouches, the type you get in a Tactical squad or the MKIV kit or a dozen other places.

That is some awesome Iron Works on display here!

I humbly would like to further the glory of the Sons of Perturabo and place a non competitive vow ( which sneakily coincidences with my CoC vow):

I, Xin Ceithan, vow on the honour of the IVth Legion to fully paint at least one terminator-armored Sorcerer with Combiflamer and Force Axe by Saturday 3rd December 2016. I promise to provide at least one "start" picture and a final "vow completed" picture in that time. I vow to bring honour to Perturabo and the Iron Warriors by completing my vow and not failing my brothers-in-arms.

IRON WITHOUT!

Edit:

Here is the very early and beginning asssembly pic. I am a bit undecided on the Head option, so I have included two on the flip sided base. And I have a bare headed third option (not shown). Thoughts?

Could i add another castellax to my vow? Due to the kindness of Augustus b'Raass i managed to finish another one:

Since you haven't started painting and you had already mentioned it when vowing, I'll allow it.

 

However, I'd rather people not make any changes from now on :)

In other news, I've received my decals brass etch, Iron Warrior Heads (I really thought I'd put the pads in the cart too... Oh well, must have been waiting for Burning of Prospero)

 

Oh, and my new baby - an Achilles-Alpha :devil:

Didn't have a chance to paint last night, and possibly not tonight either, but I'll try to have my Warsmith done by the weekend.

 

Y'know, I am really enjoying painting up this Iron Warrior. I think this will likely turn into an army project: probably slow, but it will. I'm considering stripping down the Night Lords Predator Infernus I never finished painting and adding it to this force. Hmmm...

Vow complete!

 

Iron Warrior Lord

 

And with the extra 10% for a trophy (helmet under his boot) It brings his total to 139 pts. rounding down. I may make another vow, but I will have to find something that leaps out at me as Iron Warriors appropriate.

Teetengee i'm definitely stealing that leg idea. Have you read Daemon world by by Ben Counter? Has a semi mechanical Khornate daemon prince in it and all it's minions are part machine too. 

 

great work everyone, I really must take time to visit the chaos area of the forum more often.
