de Selby Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 Hello all. I've been getting my existing HH collection in order before I add the new Mk6 marines. I put some pics in my gallery but not sure how to link in the images. Alpha legion officers Working on another squad of ten alpha legionnaires, then will do a few more Word Bearers allies/cannon fodder.

The deathwatch shotguns are a bit massive but at least you’ll be able to see who’s who. Theya are not massive - they are just right! Might have to extend my recon shotgun squad to include some Mk VI. Can't wait to see these painted. Mandragola 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WolfLogic Posted July 14, 2022 Share Posted July 14, 2022 I'm looking to create my own Primus Medicae in Cataphractii armor. I got the Cataphractii Praetor and Chaplain bundle to use the Praetor as a starting point, but I'm unsure how I should go about getting a Narthecium to add onto him and how to kit him out in a way that would look decent. Was hoping people here would have some suggestions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But you do also have the option of the Deathwing terminator Apothecary but that's a lot more work. Edit: looked up recent ebay prices and forgot about the Dark Angel Terminator bits.

Is there anything else in that kit that I could use for 30k?

Mandragola Posted July 14, 2022 Share Posted July 14, 2022 There’s lots of impressive work in this thread well done everyone I’ve started work on a sniper squad. Managed to do a few kneeling poses that I’m reasonably happy with (which need a lot of GS filling) and a sniper rifle based on the Phobos bolter and an intercessor magazine. The guy on the left might end up being Kaedes Nex. Chaeron, General Zodd, LameBeard and 3 others 6 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The swords and other melee weapons are cool and the flamer is nice. Heads are also nice as variants (quite knightly though). If you just want it for 30k though it's probably not worth it (I bought it for 40k and had the narthecium left over). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mandragola Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 I’ve built Kaedes Nex. Quite pleased with the overall effect, aiming for a classic gunfighter pose. I thought I’d make him a variant on a mkvi helmet with the lid missing and night vision gear instead, to represent his keen sight. The head is from an eliminator originally with the beak from a mkvi. tinpact, BadgersinHills, Pacific81 and 9 others 12 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SkimaskMohawk Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 Almost done the seekers/vets. At this point I just need to get rakarth flesh and do the bones, varnish, and blood effects to finish them off.

Dont-Be-Haten Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 So I think I want a big blob of despoilers for my Raven Guard, do I wait on Forgeworld to replenish their stocks, or do I just take my mountains of MK VII and use those arms and bolt pistols? Alternatively I have a feeling they will release new plastics...which FW is out of everything atm. :( Marshal Mittens 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mandragola Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 Whether to wait for melee weapons is a tough question and one many of us are facing. You’d think it would be quite simple to make despoilers (assault marines are a different question, probably requiring new bodies). If we knew they were coming we could wait, but for now it’s guesswork. Dont-Be-Haten 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshal Mittens Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 CSM kit has lots of pistol and sword arms that work as well, obviously better mostly for the traitors. Dont-Be-Haten 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

de Selby Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 Yeah that is super intimidating. I have a few mk3 hammers spare, seems like not many models can take them though. I added 10 beakies to my alpha legion and finished the transfers. This is about 2500 pts now I think.

General Zodd Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 I’ve converted up some Imperial Fist Huscarls, let me know what you think. I’ve got a range of different cloaks, as I wanted them not to be too uniform, but now I have to decide whether to try and model the damage from the first two cloaks onto the rest of them! And the backs, with the array of different cloaks I managed to cobble together!
