Freakshow668 Posted June 19, 2020 Share Posted June 19, 2020 (edited) Still toying with the idea of using one ven dread panel with lettering instead of the other one with the BA iconogrophy, but I guess I have to carve that off. That's exactly what I did with mine, it was very straight forward, just make sure you use a very thin, very sharp blade and take your time Edited June 19, 2020 by Brother Lunkhead Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/363830-halls-of-titan-wips-and-contemplations/page/4/#findComment-5545075 Share on other sites More sharing options...
casb1965 Posted June 19, 2020 Share Posted June 19, 2020 Thanks for the advice! Hopefully 9th comes soon, because all this uncertainty is killing me.. what has everyone been up to though? Also, how would you do a psycannon arm on a dreadnought, out of curiousity? Can a dreadnought have a psycannon?

Valerian Posted June 20, 2020 Share Posted June 20, 2020 @casb1965, it is a discontinued model, I believe. You can usually find them on eBay, though.

Skywrath Posted June 20, 2020 Author Share Posted June 20, 2020 (edited) @Valerian, On the Australian eBay store, I am having a really hard time finding those discontinued models. Perhaps it would be easier on the US eBay store, but the moment I see a FW GK dreadnought, then I buy it - in fact I could use one for a shooty dreadnought. @casb1965, You'd best do that BA librarian dreadnought into a GK - the only thing you realistically need to cut/change is the helmet (which is simply glued in place), and that BA logo on the chest-piece. Then it's a matter of leadbelching/stormhost silvering to color the dread. @Freakshow666, I'll probably just go for the default shoulderpads, but I'll add some GK iconogrophy from the paladin/strike boxes to make up for it. The other Ven Dreadnought will have those though. Side-note: To those people that would probably think that I am ignoring their advice towards the Vortimer Dread - I have taken into consideration what you said, this is just for the challenge.

Captain Coolpants Posted June 22, 2020 Share Posted June 22, 2020 (edited) My first time trying to make something from modeling putty/milliput. The tabard absolutely leaves a lot to be desired, and will no doubt be taken off. But thought I'd share anyways. Also, what do you guys think about the removal of his mechanical arm thingies?

The tabard absolutely leaves a lot to be desired, and will no doubt be taken off. But thought I'd share anyways. Also, what do you guys think about the removal of his mechanical arm thingies? Much better without. I use them slightly differently which I think gives a better overall shape to the model.

Dread Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 The new loin cloth looks really good. The use of the arm mechanicals to mount a weapon is really cool on top of the paint job is fantastic.

Captain Coolpants Posted June 28, 2020 Share Posted June 28, 2020 Wondering if you guys could help me out? Im breaking out the milliput again, so thought I'd try something super simple for my bases because evidently, I'm a terrible modeler. But my main assistance needed is figuring out a colour combo for the tentacle/goo combo. Here's a few I've done so far. All my models need re-basing to 32mm anyway so these are just testers.

Freakshow668 Posted June 29, 2020 Share Posted June 29, 2020 I vote for the green goo/purple tentacle combo, gives a better contrast to the model.

Captain Coolpants Posted June 29, 2020 Share Posted June 29, 2020 (edited) Thanks guys! Seems people prefer the purple. Its just the colours I'm looking for though. Green goo with purple tentacle or purple goo with pink tentacle. Or if you guys could think of maybe something that'll go better with the dark grey knights? I'll still play around with the bases themselves though. But will probably look very much be a combo of the middle and left one, scenery wise.

Captain Coolpants Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 So as suggested. I did a green goo with pink tentacle. Thoughts? And thanks again all for helping. Remember the basses are rough at the moment, it's just the colours I'm trying to get right first.

Skywrath Posted July 7, 2020 Author Share Posted July 7, 2020 (edited) Thinking about building a proper brother captain using this model. https://www.games-workshop.com/en-WW/deathwatch-watch-master Just replace one shoulder with the GK one, replace helmet with a GK one, and magnetize his wrist. Paint his color silver, do the I's in red.. Think that would be a legal conversion, despite not having terminator armor? Realistically his glaive has his storm bolter, and his armor is GK-like. Thoughts?

Thoughts? Definitely double! Links below aren't mine. Just have to be careful with the heads. Seems both people used a terminator head and it just looks, wrong. So he might look a tad too skinny next to actual terminators. https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.reddit.com/r/Warhammer40k/comments/5g63ew/i_spent_all_day_painting_up_a_deathwatch_watch/ https://m.imgur.com/gallery/mcEpC Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/363830-halls-of-titan-wips-and-contemplations/page/4/#findComment-5556803 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skywrath Posted July 7, 2020 Author Share Posted July 7, 2020 Seen both of those links already. But my question is whether it's legal enough to use on the table-top? Sheet-wise, a BC has to have terminator armor for teleport strike and for the crux terminatus. While I can argue my way out of a crux terminatus for an iron halo, the artificer armor is iffy. The rest I'm fairly certain should be fine, but I'm not convinced?

Captain Coolpants Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 How do you mean legal? You can use any model as anything as long as the sizes and proportions are similar enough. Unless you mean, you want to use the actual rules for the watch master instead of a brother captain?
