Xanthier Posted July 5, 2019 Author Share Posted July 5, 2019 Cheers guys. Yeah, without the knight fist it could look a bit out of place. As for rules? No idea. Probably just use it as a sunfury or a quake cannon for the quake effect. Another evening, another WIP! Not a fully completed titan this time, as it's a Warlord... I'm not that fast at painting, regrettably. Shoulderplates, weapons and base left to go, once basing stuff arrives in the post. Not too bad at least! The back foot had all 4 toes and the 2 rear little plates sliced off, trimmed and repositioned to get a nice hefty walking pose. Pretty pleased with that.

Mendi Warrior Posted July 5, 2019 Share Posted July 5, 2019 Very nice! I like the backfoot repositioning work in particular. You can actually bend the toes without having to slice them off, it takes a few iterations applying measured pressure each time. The first time I did it, I went a bit too far and eventually broke the toe free from the foot, it broke cleanly around the ball joint.

Xanthier Posted July 6, 2019 Author Share Posted July 6, 2019 Yeah, I could have just bent them, but I wanted a sharper angle really, so had to remove material. Cheers!

Fajita Fan Posted July 6, 2019 Share Posted July 6, 2019 Crap I actually need to paint the back of my plates with leadbelcher, I should have done that first after priming white.

Xanthier Posted July 12, 2019 Author Share Posted July 12, 2019 Cheers! It seems pretty well received overall. I finally had weapons arrive, so I gave Intonat Adsensor a facelift with a new head and a retrofit with a new melta. Since his head was now spare, that went on Ostiarius and I finally got round to painting the ankle plates too. Next up will likely be a fun project, though it may take a while.

Xanthier Posted July 12, 2019 Author Share Posted July 12, 2019 Here's the next big project for Legio Gloriam, the Imperator Cedere Nescio - "I know not how to yield", which I frankly think is a very apt name! The design was flagrantly copied from another on the FB AT18 group, though as I had a different layout of tiles I chopped and changed around which pieces I used where. All the armour plates, towers and building bits are tacked together so they can be painted separately, and the entire top building part is actually magnetized for easy removal and so I can also use it as terrain! All I have left to do is finishing up the shin pads and sourcing some more cable greebling for the underside of the buildings, but overall I'd say the basic build is done! Essentially just detailing left. bluntblade, Chaeron, noigrim and 8 others 11 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/356359-legio-gloriam-the-honour-bound/page/3/#findComment-5346284 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fajita Fan Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 A lot of people had the same idea including even cladding the legs in terrain pieces, don't feel like you're copying. Also I'd love to see a painter of your skill knock out a knight household...

RipOffProductions Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 yeah, I think most people seeking to biuld an AT Imperator think of using the Dominus Class Knight as a base from which to build. of course, this choice will stick out like a sore thumb if the Dominus class ever get an AT scale release.

Xanthier Posted July 19, 2019 Author Share Posted July 19, 2019 Cheers guys! I've made more progress on Cedere Nescio. The front and both sides of the current upper structure is now edge highlighted, so I just have the back to go... then the central building and 4 towers to paint.... Main core torso is done, and in 4 more armour plates the torso will be entirely finished, leaving weapon arms and legs which isn't too bad! Overall the absolutely longest process so far has been edge highlighting all that green on the buildings, and I'm almost halfway there... the damned artificer, noigrim and Dark Bjoern 3 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/356359-legio-gloriam-the-honour-bound/page/3/#findComment-5349885 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kilofix Posted July 20, 2019 Share Posted July 20, 2019 What part is that inverted curved support on either side of the head / center torso?

Mendi Warrior Posted July 20, 2019 Share Posted July 20, 2019 What part is that inverted curved support on either side of the head / center torso? It is from the Sector Imperialis sets, same as the row of skulls. I would guess they are from the Sanctum set, like the statues. As an alternative to the row of skulls I have seen one guy use Versatile Terrain name plates (flat rectangular ones) to decorate the edge of the platform with pseudo-latin text. I also recognise bits from the old Imperator, Cities of Death, and old Epic tank turrets, Ork ones if not mistaken? @Xanthier, it is a very nice use of all these bits, I love your conversion and the painting is top as usual!
