Thoridon Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 Vow Complete: 2x units of 3 Company Veterans As mentioned before these were put together from a mix of BA Tactical Squad and Death Company sprues, with some hunting around other boxes/sprues to find all the necessary storm bolters etc. Both sergeants have a power fist and I removed the hands from two chainsword hilts to 'mag-clip' them to the back of two of their packs while their hands are busy changing magazines on the storm bolters. All their left shoulder pads have the BA chapter symbol to save me painting it on manually. I cut one of the chainsword arms at the wrist to re-position it for a better angle.

Thoridon Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 While I'm at it... I Thoridon rise to the Elites challenge of Blood & Zeal and make a new vow to build 1x unit of 5 Company Vets for a combined total of 8 on or before 2359 UTC March 12th, 2018. As I have 5 sets of legs left across the sprues I think it's a good time to build a bodyguard unit for Gabriel Seth. They'll also be on foot to run with him, and being Flesh Tearers I'm thinking double chainswords.

He also got special stand as befitting his status.The Contemptor has been dissected and put back together having his right leg sheard off and repositioned. I also cut him at the waist and put magnets inside him. Now he can rotate on the waist axis as well as move arms and switch from Kheres to multimelta if needed.The head is from a Sanguinary guard and halo sorrounding it from the BA upgrade sprue (from the helmet).The armor has been adorned with blood drop from Primaris upgrade sprue and wings from the DA captain to create chapter/legion icon. He aslo got a winged blood drop on the leg and some purity seals from the venerable dreadnought sprue (these are bigger than standard ones). Another touch is a skull-adorned plate from the Furioso sprue that landed on the Kheres canon, a baner and Terminator Honors from the Venerable Dreadnought kit that are attached to both arms, laurel on the knee-pad and dangling tubes (from somewhere ). I also dug out some nice resin base (can't remember from where I got it).

Majkhel Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 The Emperor's Champion is a badass model! Got one too at some point too but it's already glued and primed. I thought I'd make a darker, heavier Sanguinor of him, but then I found Sanguinor somewhere and project got postponed.EDIT: Outside of the B&Z as I have already announced completion of this project, but look what came to me today:- MOOOORE CHAINSWORDS!!!Actually I forgot, I planned to add this piece all along Will be adding some power-feeding cables to it once I find something appropriate.

Thoridon Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 Update: 2nd vow of Company Vets built. Luckily I had plenty of chainswords available from multiple Death Company sprues. I gave the Sergeant a power fist instead of a 2nd chainsword so he can help Seth against any tough targets they run into. Again, used a mix of Death Company and BA Tactical Squad bits. This group were easier not having to find storm bolters, as I'm almost out of those now. I avoided the big BA shoulderpads so I can paint the FT icon on the left pads.

I have no other doable spare model for the other categories There is a LR Crusader planned but I want to paint the interior before gluing it together, not to mention its huge size which will take a lot of my time... It's been fun so far, onwards to victory brothers! As my signature says, our Roll of Honour is second to none!

Jolemai Posted March 9, 2018 Author Share Posted March 9, 2018 Just remembered I still have a Primaris Ancient to build which wouldn't disrupt my schedule too much. So here goes nothing! I sfPanzer rise to the Elites challenge of Blood & Zeal and vow to build 1 Primaris Ancient for a combined total of 5PL on or before 2359 UTC March 12th, 2018. Success will bring honour to the Blood Angels and the Knights of Baal, whilst failure is not an option... Knew you couldn't resist Is that a SG banner you're switching in? Does it fit easily? Guilty. Yeah it's the SG banner. Unfortunately it doesn't fit as easily as I thought and I don't have the time to make it fit currently so I'm just using the regular Primaris banner this time. Maybe for my next Ancient if I ever make one. ^^ So ... Vow completed! Pretty basic with just a headswap. Blue-tac (well actually pattex ) on the feet because I really don't want to paint those bases after gluing a model on them and he didn't want to stand properly for the picture without it. Nicely done and pity about the SG banner. Is the head GKPA or GKTDA?

He aslo got a winged blood drop on the leg and some purity seals from the venerable dreadnought sprue (these are bigger than standard ones).
