Watch Master Conversions (Show Them Off People)


Recommended Posts

I just finished painting up my watch master conversion and got to thinking, due to their buffs they may be an auto include but as the highest authority in the ranks of any DW force they are a focal point for attention.

That said I want to see what cool ideas people have come up with for their watch masters, show off their work and help provide suggestions, tips and explain how they create what they do for people who are trying to create something special for their forces but are not as confident with conversion work

 

Still thinking of a name for this fellow but let me know what you think:

really love the positioning of the weapon, I had a hard time trying to figure out what to do with the left arm of mines. Ended up breaking the clavis a bit cause it wouldnt fit with his hand open. So glad to see yours in tact. Havent painted mine yet, and I had to wing it since i destroyed my primaris librarian model with a sigmarine style concept.

It was a pain to get his arm right but pinning helped, also moving the backpack cameras to face the direction of the WM helps as well, I try to do it on all my DW.

I love the use of the Cypher model for your Watch Master!

It's such a good model to work off of, if I ever get another one I'll definitely keep your concept in mind. Nice touch with the camera facing, the best changes are the ones that make sense.

 

Personally, I've got a few Watch Masters kicking around, but none are quite so ambitious (and only one is finished).

 

This one's just a little more spooky...

 
... and the Master in the middle is a little more action oriented.

 Love the double blade on the Gaurdian Spear, and i see you are throwing trophies on your guys (im doing the same thing / Yaujta Kill Team Thread) Im thinking of redoing my Watch Master, like I like him, but after doing more Vets he became more .... bleh....

Thanks, though if I did him again I'd just use Xenophase blades instead of clipped down Grey Knight Halberds... I never realized how many extras I'd have kicking around.

Yeah, I'm a big fan of the xenos skulls after picking up one of those citadel box-o-skulls, although not nearly as adventurous as I've seen you using trophies! ;)

 

Your Watchmaster looks great, it's got a very (appropriately) gothic look (partly due to the Stormcast legs)... I think a very John Blanche painting style (gritty and grimy) would suit him perfectly.

yea, i have a plethora of lychguard blades that i use for any HQ blades so I may throw it on there. And thanks man i appreciate that, I need to order some more xeno stuff as im catching ideas on pinterest deathwatch artwork. I may go with him but the with the new concept, Im thinking of switching it up, Like you will definitely be able to tell tween the young bloods and elites of the Yaujta. Going to try some concepts soon, have two models coming in ( Dark Vengeance Dark Angels Space Marines Chaplain model & Chaos Crimson Slaughter Lord Krannon The Relentless )So we will see in a week or so (UK shipping)
