Tichinde Posted November 25, 2018 Share Posted November 25, 2018 Well, deicided to make a start on my cultists inspired by these new releases from weekender (in between working on the forces of Prospero, new and old). back in another life I had a lot of the old metal hybrids and have always had a soft spot for Genestealers since Space Crusade. so first up: Cult leadership, inspired by a classic :-) : Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/351444-tichindes-cult-of-the-distant-star-with-added-deathwatch/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Dallo Posted November 25, 2018 Share Posted November 25, 2018 That's a damn fine looking chair, and the navigator conversion's spot on too. Keep up the good work.

Kraad Belak Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 By The Four Armed Emperor, I am loving these. The magos and fella with the heroic pose (and heavy stick to beat the truth into non believers) are my favourites so far.

ranulf the revenant Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 so first up: Cult leadership, inspired by a classic :-) : May or may not be directly out of Alien?

Tichinde Posted February 13, 2019 Author Share Posted February 13, 2019 Inspired by the old Rogue trader era "sitting" Patriarch, I'll dig out a pic later :-) this guy: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/351444-tichindes-cult-of-the-distant-star-with-added-deathwatch/#findComment-5255587 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gederas Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 Loving these guys, the paint job is especially nice. But I gotta know: How'd you make the Patriarch's chair?

Tichinde Posted February 14, 2019 Author Share Posted February 14, 2019 sure, the Chair is basically this: cut up with some of the bits replaced with Purestrain heads/skulls. stuck on a suitable base and a pile of skulls mostly from the skulls box with liberal sprinkling of space marine helmets. the Purestrain on the back I had originally envisioned as a statue/part of the chair but I might end up painting him as a real "live" one. Typically they just released this: which would work a lot better I reckon, but I like how it turned out.

Gederas Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 Why thank you. Consider this idea stolen. My Deathwatch needed a "final boss" to fight when I finish that Narrative campaign :lol: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/351444-tichindes-cult-of-the-distant-star-with-added-deathwatch/#findComment-5256607 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tichinde Posted February 14, 2019 Author Share Posted February 14, 2019 No probs!, the Patriarch itself is a combination of the broodlord and patriarch from the broodcoven (I can't remember what bits though, possibly 1 leg and the claws where swapped about to get him "sitting". his tail was chopped off and is curling out from behind him on the chair.) will get some more pics up soon.

brettfp Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 Very nice! I was actually just thinking the other week that if I were to start a Genestealer army I would make a version of that old Patriarch . Great minds think alike? :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/351444-tichindes-cult-of-the-distant-star-with-added-deathwatch/#findComment-5259234 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tichinde Posted February 18, 2019 Author Share Posted February 18, 2019 cheers! yeah, I wasn't sold on the various broodlords/patriarchs "hunched over standing on a thing" pose they all seem to have.

Tichinde Posted March 14, 2019 Author Share Posted March 14, 2019 as I mentioned in my other thread I now have a permanent painting area setup, so without further ado some wip: Lady Magus: objective marker!: Grand Idol of the Distant Star: (very) loosely based on this: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/351444-tichindes-cult-of-the-distant-star-with-added-deathwatch/#findComment-5276647 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bjorn Firewalker Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 Even unpainted, the objective marker looks AWESOME. I hope to see it completed soon. Don't forget to add a pool of blood under the Marine's corpse.

Tichinde Posted May 16, 2019 Author Share Posted May 16, 2019 No Limos yet :-), but got a couple of rock grinders and a wheeled Taurox on the "to do" list.

El_Dicko Posted May 17, 2019 Share Posted May 17, 2019 The Patriarch turned out fantastic. And the Magi(?) had to google that... now want to see a nativity scene with three Magi bringing gifts to a baby purestrain... I digress. They also look great!

Tichinde Posted May 17, 2019 Author Share Posted May 17, 2019 As it happens there will be three Magi, I picked up the regular version too. Also managed to find my 3 metal familiars from 1st/2nd edition who do look like babies so it could happen :-) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/351444-tichindes-cult-of-the-distant-star-with-added-deathwatch/#findComment-5315803 Share on other sites More sharing options...
