Heresy character Conversion ideas? Sanakht & Phosis T'Kar

[Lord Commander Eidolon]

Well, as I can't paint anything until the onset of the ETL here is the start of another historic Thousand Son... who could it be.....

A bit rough around the edges, needed to prime it so I could better see what needs tidying, the crest needs little more filing and possibly a jewel on the forks

Who knows? Maybe there's a clue around here somewhere... :P Looks good, nice bit of flair on the front should help him stand out without having to do so more literally :tu:

Very nice touch on that head. I can't wait to see it painted.... if it indeed does get painted!

Ooh, that sounds like a challenge...

[Lord Commander Eidolon]

And yet more of the Rehati make an appearance!

 

Couldn't resist building more characters from the novel A Thousand Sons! I've got a wee bit obsessed with the Heresy Legions Card Game which has re-kindled my abortive Sons army and my love of recreating the classic heresy CCG artwork.

Can you guess who he is?!

I don't know the Cardgame, but I love the conversion! Who is it? Mind giving a hint?

I think it'll be in the Visions of Heresy book, but I was thinking of the Heresy CCG, which is kind of replicated by the Horus Heresy Legions game app.

 

As for a hint: Magnus certainly did something wrong by him....

 

Well, my Rehati conclave continues! Sadly I'm kind of running low on the classic sabretooth card game art to emulate with regards to characters! I'm still planning on doing a few homages of units and the Land Speeder!

 

This guy should be much more recognisable- missing the collar but I've got one and it fits well, so that's all good! I'd like the helmet to look a bit closer to the art but I've not seen anything come closer.

I've been posting a lot of my stuff on Instagram as I'm generally pretty lazy and it's an efffort to upload stuff to a hosting site. However, here's a copy of the post as no one here managed to guess the character, so here is the answer.... I'm also aware not everyone knows the Art that I'm referring to, so here it is.....

 

Behold the coming of the Rehati! Belaq Uthizzar, Captain of the Fifth Fellowship, Magister Templii of the Athaneans. My project to build characters from the Heresy novels / classic heresy art continues.#magnusdidnothingwrong

Think I've covered off the majority of the details so he should be recognisable, although the picture isn't as well known as others. He also features in the Heresy Legions app game, which is what prompted me to make him! I'm going to attempt to do all the Fellowship Captains at some point!

Here is a little more comparison - this guy is one of my favourite characters in the series! The helmet is the best approximation I've managed to come across, however if anyone else has suggestions I'm happy to hear them. I'll add the wiszards collar after painting the Metallic red, so I'm not adding needless layers!

To be honest, I can't really see the models as being representations of the artwork - but that said, I don't think it matters.  Your models are awesome, even if I can't tell by seeing them alongside the artwork that said artwork inspired that particular model.

Each to their own I guess, they were approximations based on the art, rather than carbon copies! Still I'm glad you like them.... let's hope I get around to painting them....

 

Well, as I'd already posted a sort of comparison with the helmet I've left this one until last, but here's my interpretation of Phosis T'Kar

And my latest Sorcerer.... I've unfortunately run out of Visions of Heresy art....

My interpretation of Izzakar Orr from The Thirteen Wolf! My buddy Jackalwolf has been building some damn impressive Space Wolves, so naturally I had to build an opposing force for his 13th Company. I'm a little late, as he finished his Ashes of Prospero diorama sometime ago. I was inspired by his inclusion as a legendary card in the Heresy Legions game. I would have made him closer to the art from the Thirteenth Wolf cover but I'm not convinced it's a sorcerer!

So progress has been slow; not helped by the insane amount of trim on the rubrics. I really need to figure another way to make my marines ‘taller’. Not sure if I can pull off the Death Watch legs?! That DG plastics would need a lot of work, and I’m despite having initially got the new CSMs to covert to TS I found it would be too much effort, any suggestions appreciated

 

But there is progress

And one of my characters is pretty much done
