[Charlo]

My quick WIP of Captain Corvo.

As a note I'm going to use cotton to smoke up and hide the spru holding him up.

Here is the inspiration for it

I'm also working on another Captain for my next vow, using the Conversion World sword.

 

This is its inspiration:

Entire thread is amazing but this guy is sweeeet!

[Joe]

Ah, to hell with it. I'll throw one in. Just waiting on a bits order to come in. I'll roll with some Heresy era stuff, having already sussed out what the equivalent is in 40k.

 

I, Isinfier, Remembrancer of the IX Legion, rise to the challenge of The Great Baalite Bake Off and vow to kit bash one Captain equipped with Artificer Armour, Angel's Wing and Power Weapon on or before April 3rd, 2017. Success will bring honour to the IX Legion, whilst failure is not an option...

 

EDIT; I made an error. I don't suppose it's possible to take x2 CQWs/chainswords as opposed to a Power Weapon?

For flame effects, rather than cotton wool I recommend clump foliage superglued in progressive layers to a paperclip.

I did this for a flamer-wielding jump packer here:

Kierdale that's awesome!

 

Out of interest is the kitbash challenge going to be an annual event? I'm interested in joining a future one. Don't think my current bits box gives me much scope for this and I certainly don't have time to do it justice.

I do have plans for acquiring some box sets later this year when budget allows, to convert existing squads and maybe get some practice for next time round.

Always a fan of events like these, and there are truly impressive conversions throughout the thread!  For me, I pledge the following:

Welcome aboard! Just find a counts-as iron halo and you're good to go! As for the weapons, I'm only logging the Datasheet entry (I.e. that it's a Captain) so it's fine so long as it's a legal choice from Codex Blood Angels.

EDIT: copy&paste typo

I'm like 99% done. Still missing the Iron Halo and i'm not sure whether I should paint the Knights of Blood emblem on his half-covered shoulderpad....he already looks pretty knight-ish, no?

I also have to fill the gaps in the jump pack but that shouldn't be too hard.

I'm sorry for the rather bad pic quality. I wrecked my mobile last weekend (first time it happened to me >_>) and this is just a cheap replacement. The lighting wasn't optimal either obviously so that didn't exactly help I guess.

[Jolemai]

 

We've hit 199 comments. Not enough likes to go around. I'm really quite excited to see how everyone ends up with their models. I'm still waiting on some pieces to get here. I wish I could pick up one of the forge world heavy chainswords instead of the regular eviscerator. In the mean time, any ideas on how to make it fancy?

Add some wings? Perhaps you could put two together (like the upgraded reaper chainsword on the Freeblade game)...

[Jolemai]

This event runs until the 3rd April so there's loads of time to knock something together for it and grab an exclusive banner for your signature regardless of how well you do. There's also every chance you can rustle up a great entry so don't sell yourself short.

 

With regards to a future event, given how much interest this one has had it will certainly be on the cards again. However, I may run something different next year as it looks like everyone has made lots of HQs already and they won't need any next year!

Sword and board! He is looking good pretty great and finding an iron halo (or counts-as) to complete it shouldn't be too hard, no?

[Dosjetka]

Next year, we need Sergeants. And then I'll consider joining. ;)

[Panzer]

The halo should already be on its way to me so I just have to be patient and not give in to the Red Thirst...luckily i have more selfcontrol than my chapter of choice.

Why not vehicles? Sounds like a pretty interesting theme for conversions as well. ;)

Thread updated to here - should add that it's half term this week so updates may be slow.

 

Should add that I'm looking at getting some stats up soon (we're two weeks in now) which I'll aim to do weekly and I'll be adding a completion page to track the completions easier.

Maybe you should keep an eye on the forum next month... :whistle:

Hmm. Intriguing. Any chance you could PM me if you don't see me pop up during the first week of whatever it is you're organising? :teehee:

Hm, he should theoretically be limited to one CQC weapon, although Battlescribe doesn't seem to have an issue with two so long as there isn't anything else. Either way, I could easily run it as a bolt pistol + CQC weapon and model two. I'll throw in an Iron Halo as well; although as far as I can tell from the unit profile it's in there by default?.

 

I, Isinfier, Remembrancer of the IX Legion, rise to the challenge of The Great Baalite Bake Off and vow to kit bash one Captain equipped with Artificer Armour, Angel's Wing, Iron Halo and a pair of chainswords/close combat weapons (or chainsword and a bolt pistol) on or before April 3rd, 2017.

[Vindictavio]

Just a query before I embarrass myself and my chapter if that's OK?

 

I'm putting together a force of metal minis but using parts from assault sprues, sanguinary guard, death company and tactical squad bits. I'm using classic metal chapter shoulder pads and 2 types of classic metal jump packs.

 

However, and this is if I read the rules correctly, I couldn't vow on these as I'm using legs, torso and head of the metal mini.....or am I wrong?

 

Cheers

[Dont-Be-Haten]

Here's some WIPs.

 

First order of business. Do we need a name change, I like Adrian but I wouldn't hate changing it.

 

Secondly: I can't decide what I want to do for the right shoulder pad. This Carmine Blade's shoulder will be switched for a fancy one when they come in. I'm just testing the waters.

 

Right then! I've shaved down the fancy Tactical BA pistol holster; this is all pre fitting etc. the last shows where the pistol will be positioned. My philosophy on kitbashes are always keep it simple, and make it somehow show the aggression of how I view my successor Chapter.

 

Thoughts and C&C welcome. It's very simple in his design, but I really feel his unleashing fury. It isn't as amazing as some of you lot, but I am open to suggestions.

 

Side notes; I couldn't get the Black shield's cape to work properly, part of me wants the left shoulder to be one of the fancy BA shoulders from the upgrade kit to represent pre-heresy armor that was handed down to this chapter master from Dante, as they were revealed to be of Sanguinius line. Ideas on that as well. I hope you guys enjoy him.
