Tzen Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 So I am starting my Word Bearers all over again. My old miniatures have pretty much been put into retirement. I have been waiting for a new Chaos Space Marine range for a long time, and my old Word Bearers had varying levels of painting quality. This time round I hope to try and have a consistent paint scheme and quality of painting. So, it is starting with the Master of Possessions. This is such a great miniature, and it’s whole role is extremely Word Bearer-like. http://www.golden-throne.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/Mop1.jpg http://www.golden-throne.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/mop2.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/354787-tzens-all-new-word-bearers-wip-thread/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ranulf Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 Best looking lower leg I've seen in ages. Will be watching Tzen! -Ran Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/354787-tzens-all-new-word-bearers-wip-thread/#findComment-5284100 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atia Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 Great start although I hate endings and tbh, your old Word Bearers were awesome already! Can't wait to see more though ^.^ Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/354787-tzens-all-new-word-bearers-wip-thread/#findComment-5284105 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tzen Posted March 25, 2019 Author Share Posted March 25, 2019 Thanks Ranulf and Atia! :D I just want this new lot to be a separate project. My old Word Bearers are really showing their age, and I am hoping to have a very daemon focused theme. Just waiting to see what the updated units and codex brings! :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/354787-tzens-all-new-word-bearers-wip-thread/#findComment-5284148 Share on other sites More sharing options...
KrautScientist Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 Well, your painting is top notch, as always, so this new project should be a treat to watch -- if anything, I only hope that you will be giving the new Word Bearers the same amount of customisation and originality that the old version of the army had, because that's always the coolest part of an army project to me. And while your painting is always a joy to behold, I couldn't help wishing you had done more on the conversion side of things with some of your last projects.

Tzen Posted March 25, 2019 Author Share Posted March 25, 2019 Thanks peeps, glad you like :D Well, your painting is top notch, as always, so this new project should be a treat to watch -- if anything, I only hope that you will be giving the new Word Bearers the same amount of customisation and originality that the old version of the army had, because that's always the coolest part of an army project to me. And while your painting is always a joy to behold, I couldn't help wishing you had done more on the conversion side of things with some of your last projects. I hear you, the conversion side is always fun for me too. A lot of the problem with conversions is time. Just easier to go straight from the box. :D I have got a few ideas for some conversion though, so hopefully I will be able to deliver! :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/354787-tzens-all-new-word-bearers-wip-thread/#findComment-5284423 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tzen Posted March 26, 2019 Author Share Posted March 26, 2019 I have done some more work on this guy. I spent most of the time deciding on colour compositions so it's been slow going. Hoping to get a chunk more done today though! http://www.golden-throne.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/mop2.3.jpg http://www.golden-throne.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/mop2.2.jpg http://www.golden-throne.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/mop2.4.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/354787-tzens-all-new-word-bearers-wip-thread/#findComment-5284699 Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJD Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 I’m not normally a fan of modelled on fire and smoke but I think you’ve made it look good. Obviously everything else is great.

Bjorn Firewalker Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 He looks intimidating as Hell- appropriate, as he summons foul spirits from the Warp, and binds them to mortal frames.

Martox Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 Tzen, can I get your red recipe please? I'm messing about with airbrushing on the Shadowspear Chaos and whilst I have a reasonable red, it's quite bright for Word Bearers.

hushrong Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 Very excited to see you do a refreshed Word Bearers army!

jester_prince Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 This is hands down one of the nicest paint jobs I have ever seen and I usually don't go in for the hard edge highlighting style. Possibly because I can't compete with the likes of this.
