TURBULENCE Posted October 30, 2016 Share Posted October 30, 2016 Three major reasons for the start of this probject should be addressed before we begin. 1. I'm horrible with seeing things through. I start with a lot of big ideas and momentum and it fades as soon as a new shiny is in hand. But this is a little different. I'm forced to start small due to the fact I won't build a list till the legion gets all their special rules and goodies. So right now this is all 'just for fun' and fun wins my attention every time. 2. I now have an airbrush. So I can do the metallic red that is oh so popular (and with good reason! ) + I've amassed so much painting supplies I have no excuse to drop the project at the painting step. 3. There's a quickly growing heresy community near me, and I need to catch up before I'm left in the dust by those with a head start. I'm a touch competitive about weird things so this more than anything will keep me focused. Now that we're up to speed, join me as I board the train with no breaks! Again, as we're in 'just for fun' phase, I've started with something I want to do regardless if it sees use. Starting with Thousand Sons aligned automata. The use of golems in the legion is a detail I'm quite fond of, and I love me some robots. Psych. No robots yet, but a praevian to lead them manifested last night in an insomnia haze. I owe some people here credit as I snagged some ideas right out of other logs, and I will credit them as soon as I sort out who it was again. But finally, the model: http://i65.tinypic.com/2a91pfp.jpg http://i67.tinypic.com/2qmhkyf.jpg http://i68.tinypic.com/2nlzhbl.jpg That's all for now till I get paid again and can afford some kastelans to convert into thousand son themed castellax Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/327388-xv-legion-a-world-burns-for-our-sins/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
TURBULENCE Posted November 3, 2016 Author Share Posted November 3, 2016 Small update, a WIP of a plasma support squad. Had fun with this one, heavily inspired by the visions art and with a loose theme of 'heresy conversions before fw30k' that being said, BAC got some heavy usage. One detail I do want to point out is the use of gw style mkiv heads. I prefer the fw look but the gw ones felt right here and match up with the Artbook illustrations very well.

TURBULENCE Posted November 8, 2016 Author Share Posted November 8, 2016 Another small update, a very WIP quad mortar rapier and crew. Happy with most of it, though the quad barrel may be to long and I may scrap that part altogether. Not sure what else to do that would be easily reproduced for the next two. But here's what I got: http://i65.tinypic.com/dxz403.jpg http://i66.tinypic.com/5buk3.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/327388-xv-legion-a-world-burns-for-our-sins/#findComment-4556748 Share on other sites More sharing options...
TURBULENCE Posted November 16, 2016 Author Share Posted November 16, 2016 So another small update for you. Waiting on BOP before this unit sees the light of day. But I had enough spare parts to build a proof of concept breacher marine. So here he is http://i64.tinypic.com/2b2vpc.jpghttp://i66.tinypic.com/11kcz08.jpghttp://i65.tinypic.com/2ch54sw.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/327388-xv-legion-a-world-burns-for-our-sins/#findComment-4563220 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Count Douclar Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 This looks great, can't wait to see more. Like what you did with the quad mortar.

Ovidius Incertus Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 Where did that sword in your first image come from? That's an awesome bit!

TURBULENCE Posted November 16, 2016 Author Share Posted November 16, 2016 This looks great, can't wait to see more. Like what you did with the quad mortar. Thank you. To be honest I'm not happy with the quad mortar. It needs a lot of work still. It's much to front heavy at the moment Where did that sword in your first image come from? That's an awesome bit! That idea was shamelessly stolen from these forums actually. It's the Kill team cassius 'scar biker's sword. Actually most of him is out of that box Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/327388-xv-legion-a-world-burns-for-our-sins/#findComment-4563706 Share on other sites More sharing options...
