Fajita Fan Posted April 9, 2020 Share Posted April 9, 2020 Y’all are doing a much better job at this psi-titan thing than I had planned. :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Bjoern Posted April 9, 2020 Author Share Posted April 9, 2020 Now i have to name it. At all 6 are known by name Occedentalis-Chirion Occedentalis-Damysus Occedentalis-Eurytus Occedentalis-Sabaktes Borealis-Thoon Polaris-Albedelach Mine will be from the Chamber Polaris. Albedelach sounds a bit gaelic/irish/scottish. So i started to research a bit. I found some names/terms that could fit. Fionnlagh (FION-lach) means bright/beautiful warrior Dorrell means the King´s Gatekeeper Lachlann (LACH-lahn) means combative Lailoken was a semi-legendary madman and prophet who lived in the Caledonian Forest in the late 6th century. Could fit for a psi-Titan. Rejects of Anvilus and Sandlemad 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fajita Fan Posted April 9, 2020 Share Posted April 9, 2020 Mine will be Borealis Phantasma (ghost or spirit representing the ghost in the machine), I love the name Polaris but I don't want a double P sound so Borealis works. I also don't love names that are a real mouthful. From your list I'd go with Lachlann. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sherrypie Posted April 9, 2020 Share Posted April 9, 2020 (edited) I'm in a bit of a pickle with the naming, as the four known chamber names obviously refer to the four classic directions of Earth but none of those tickle my fancy quite enough to not do one of my own. It has to keep the same punch with it, though, so to classic philosophy of nature we go. All of those four belong to the sublunary region, distinct from the translunary spheres of heaven, where man had to rise eventually. The Moon also had other canonical uses, so Lunaris, though cool and fittingly short, is out. "Aetheris" could work, indicating the practise of creating these abominations in the eternal unchanging cradle of stars where no light touches the horrors born in the cold embrace of the cosmic vacuum. Wouldn't tie them down into one place, either. "Astralis", "Firmamentis", "Eternis"... Something along those lines.

Dark Bjoern Posted April 9, 2020 Author Share Posted April 9, 2020 But most people forget, Big E ordered 25 Warlords organized into 4 Chambers with 5 Warlords each.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fajita Fan Posted April 9, 2020 Share Posted April 9, 2020 Maybe that’s the reference to the gold Warlords mentioned in “Thousands Sons” that I based my legio on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Bjoern Posted April 9, 2020 Author Share Posted April 9, 2020 (edited) I think there´s a fifth, much more secret chamber of the Ordo Sinister. And on Prospero it had been the Chamber Occedetalis. Edited April 9, 2020 by Dark Bjoern Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fajita Fan Posted April 9, 2020 Share Posted April 9, 2020 (edited) This was the Council of Nikea when the Emperor censured librarians and sorcery. I’m on mobile but I took a picture of the page, it’s in my gallery. Edited April 9, 2020 by Fajita Fan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schoon Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 Great work on the Titan! Especially the shoulders - they came out great with paint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bjorn Firewalker Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 Good job on the Titan. I'm surprised at the relatively featureless helmet, though. Why was that chosen? To make the Titan look like an M2-M3 motorcyclist or astronaut? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noigrim Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 (edited) I don't like occedentalis it should be occidentalis I guess to keep it in line with the eldar psi phantom (no tech heresy here proceed magos) Edited April 10, 2020 by noigrim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mandragola Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 There's an awesome guide today on how to paint the Ordo Sinister badge freehand. Copying it won't be simple, but it's inspiring stuff. https://www.warhammer-community.com/2020/04/23/freehand-lessons-from-a-master/ Dark Bjoern 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DuskRaider Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 Yeah, agree 100%. I don't know why they didn't do that in the first place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mandragola Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 Well, this may not be a good time to use freehand (I also prefer our various 3d attempts) but it's still useful in general I think. I've got a vague aspiration to do banners one day, for example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandlemad Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 Chap did an incredible job with the freehand - the step-by-step photos almost look like a nightmarish lion emerging from a black pit - but it does hammer home what an opportunity FW missed by not including small resin lion heads in the kit. Obviously there's some fantastic jobs in this thread alone but like, the Ordo Sinister heraldry is by no means an easy one to sketch in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fajita Fan Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 It looks like a wolf to me which makes me think a Witcher themed psi-titan might looks cool by using thunder wolf or Fenrisian wolf heads and having the power fist hold a sword...

splayedpaintbrush Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 (edited) and having the power fist hold a sword...Now that sounds awesome! I've had an order for some of the scibor lion stuff hanging for weeks now. Was actually placed before release of the Psi-Titan, but Covid hasn't helped me there I suppose.

Fajita Fan Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 Well I've got a fist holding an axe and another fist holding a crane but I need find or scratchbuild a sword. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Bjoern Posted April 24, 2020 Author Share Posted April 24, 2020 Well I've got a fist holding an axe and another fist holding a crane but I need find or scratchbuild a sword. Warlord size? i would look for a Nemesis Dreadknight sword. Should be the right size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously there's some fantastic jobs in this thread alone but like, the Ordo Sinister heraldry is by no means an easy one to sketch in. It's not free hand, though. That's literally a transfer, they just used CG to break it down into "steps". Look at the "glint" on the gold, it's the same as the other transfers.

Warlord size? i would look for a Nemesis Dreadknight sword. Should be the right size. Is it? It could end up looking way too big. Edit: You know I think that might be the right size but I can't find any on bits sites or eBay unless you all know someone with an extra sword they don't need.

Sword Brother Adelard Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 Trying to get hold of a Nemesis sword on bits sites or eBay is like trying to find the holy grail. They are incredibly sought after bits. I know, as I tried to get one to convert my BT Ben Dread. In the end, I gave up as it was too difficult, expensive and, I didn't actually like the look for a BT sword. So I had a friend 3D print one.
