Panzer Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 Nice re-creation, but it looks like he has a red backpack and golden bolter case in the artwork. :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/347246-captain-erasmus-tycho-91-vintage-for-the-alien-wars/#findComment-5080889 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Venerable Jazzman Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 Nice re-creation, but it looks like he has a red backpack and golden bolter case in the artwork. And hazard stripes on his cloak Love it, nice work Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/347246-captain-erasmus-tycho-91-vintage-for-the-alien-wars/#findComment-5080952 Share on other sites More sharing options...
apologist Posted May 14, 2018 Author Share Posted May 14, 2018 Thanks all. There's some further notes in my Alien Wars blog here, where I go into some of the reasoning behind the differences.

Bjorn Firewalker Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 That's Capt. Tycho? I thought he was Cmdr. Dante, minus the jump pack.

apologist Posted May 14, 2018 Author Share Posted May 14, 2018 At the time, he was just a generic Blood Angels Captain/Commander. I’m doing an homage to the WD139 studio Blood Angels army, and that was led by a Captain called Tycho - from whom the later special character was developed.

dread05 Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 It's kinda both. "The front cover this time depicts the Blood Angels, lead by a ridiculously shiny gold armoured Captain, who would go on to be the inspiration for the special characters Commander Dante and Captain Tycho."

BluejayJunior Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 That is a nice looking model. For the head, did you just use a bare helmetless head and paint it all gold?
