Targetlock Posted October 16, 2016 Share Posted October 16, 2016 Hi all, yesterday i took part in the Armies on Parade at my local store with Iron Wardens Space Marines, so i thought it would be a perfect opportunity to showcase my army and allies The Iron Wardens The Iron Wardens are a successor of the Iron Hands created during the cursed founding. a relatively stable founding, they have a strange anomaly in their gene seed that causes their skin to slowly turn metallic. Almost my entire force on display in Armies on Parade i don't know how i did except i didn't place but got a nice badge for taking place. missing is two biker squads and a dreadnought. Here is a close up of some of the commanders of my force since taking that photo i now have about 5 captains, 3 librarians and 2 techmarines. For my Legion of the Damned allies i came up with The Spectral Guard, my converted count-as unit. Deathwatch My as yet un-named Deathwatch fortress is situated close to the Iron Wardens homeworld and has close ties to them. my deathwatch force was inspired by various action movies and as such each of the units has been inspired by my fave sci-fi movies. The first unit inspired by predator and including a bow-wielding Dutch and Blain and his Minigun. My second unit inspired by Aliens with each marine named after one of the marines a couple of liberties taken such as making Vasquez male and there only being the one heavy weapon. And last but not least my corvus blackstar, this was the inspiration for my deathwatch as it reminds me of the drop ship out of Aliens. hope you like my stuff. comments welcome!

gaurdian31 Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 I see a lot of really nice conversion work in there. Love the Deathwatch marine with a bow. A lot of the pics are a bit blurry so really hard to give good feedback on them. I really want to see your HQ choices because it looks like you might have done some neat OSL on the terminator captain. I also like your idea for the Legion of the Damned, they look good. The Deathwatch Corvus looks good too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My captains, included is one of the web exclusive captains and the limited edition praetor model and a variety of conversions. My converted librarius conclave, mostly using grey knight parts and the terminator captain from the start collecting box. My 3 biker squads, 1 is a melta squad, 1 is a grav squad and the third is a plasma squad. My dreadnoughts :) i do like my dreads also hoping to build a deredeo, an ironclad and a leviathan. at the moment working on vanguard and the limted edition herlad that came out today.

Targetlock Posted October 24, 2016 Author Share Posted October 24, 2016 The new pics really help. I like your hqs. The captain with storm shield, where does his spear come from?

gaurdian31 Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 Here I was thinking it was a Grey Knights halberd with a Tomb Kings sword or,something. Great use of bits. Also the storm shield,looks great, didn't even realize it was plasticard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Draakur Posted November 1, 2016 Share Posted November 1, 2016 I think I like what I'm seeing, and I appreciate your second round of photos... but again, I feel like we're just not close enough here and not seeing enough angles to get a good idea of what you've accomplished. I dig what I can see of the paint scheme and the conversion work (and I like what little you've written about them fluff-wise) but yeh... the photos, dude.

Sadly i can only work with what I've got, guess i need a better camera rather than my crappy phone one :/ but thanks for the feedback. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draakur Posted November 3, 2016 Share Posted November 3, 2016 I think even if you just get slightly closer (maybe only photographing 1-2 marines at a time) and go for a few different angles, things will improve dramatically :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
