Si Vis Pacis Para Bellum. Something Big (sorta clickbait) :D

Thanks Bjorn, you make a valid point. I'll go ahead and put some gore on the pfist...then it'll look like he transitioned from rifle to pistol in the midst of CC

[Shovellovin]

Great work, as usual. I’m envious of your skill using green stuff. All of the work you do on your models really makes them unique. 

[Monstra Sumus]

Milius is 100% bad ass. I disagree (respectfully) on the bolter logic because sometimes a dynamic pose is the best option and Milo oozes dynamic.

 

Is that Argento & Scarto I see on the chariot? ;)

[space wolf]

mmmmmm, you both make valid points...I will have a think on this.  As for the chariot bike, why yes, that is Argento and Scarto....are you not entertained?

 

So aside from mounting a base on this (which I'm working on, simply for consistency's sake, drilling out a few bolters and an Ultramarine logo on a pauldron, converting this bad boy is done.  I based their helmets off of the pre heresy Ultras helmets and historical roman cavalry helms, suggested by grailkeeper. Any thoughts?

Does the attack bike's gun shield depict two stallions fighting, e.g., over a mate? Or is it simply of two horses rampant, as on a coat-of-arms?

[space wolf]

Just two wild stallions Like a coat d'arms

[space wolf]

Finished it up, what do you guys think?

 

 

 

 

[MadGreek]

That's some good work there!

[Bjorn Firewalker]

Excellent work.

[Monstra Sumus]

Big fat seal of approval.

[space wolf]

Thanks for the kind comments guys, I'm pretty happy with it.

 

Now for a semi larger update.  Most of this stuff I've been working on for a while, a little here...move on to the next thing, a little there, so it seems like I've been really churning things out, but I've really been working on this stuff all at the same time.

 

First, the next member of Intercessor Squad Hasta...

 

Brother Severus

 

 

Second in command to Brother Milo, Severus is known for being a crack shot, with just about weapon he picks up.  Not having the temperament or patience for infiltration/sniper work, Severus is happy utilizing his skills providing accurate fire support and backing up his fellow battle brothers.

 

“You’re all clear brothers, I’ll cover you.”

 

 

 

 

 

Let me know what you guys think.

 

Additionally, I've finished converting the last of the intercessors I bought on ebay.  They provided an interesting challenge, because they were already assembled (with plastic glue, which made taking them apart almost not an option) and primed...upon further inspection some of them were the monopose marines from the 8th ed starter.

C&C Welcome, thanks for stopping by!

Excellent work on Severus' model. Does his armor bear molecular bonding studs because it's an antique, or did he customize a relatively new suit of armor- specifically reinforcing it with additional layers, to be more appropriate for his duty providing suppressive fire?

[BLACK BLΠFLY]

Amazing as usual.

[space wolf]

Bjorn:  I like to think its an antique.  I like the look of the Space Marines in the artwork, where you can't quite tell what armor mk they are wearing, as if they started with one, and just over time embellished and replaced pieces as needed.

 

Black Blow Fly:  Aww shucks, you'll make a space wolf blush...and not from drunkeness ;)  Sincerely, thank you.

[Monstra Sumus]

Excellent job on Severus! I'm looking forward to the new squad all finished!

[space wolf]

Nomad:  Thank you sir!

 

next one done!

 

Brother Nerva

 

 

One might call Brother Nerva, stern.  But that is a misconception, he is simply efficient.  His brothers in Squad Hasta, may describe him as cold, but that doesn’t mean he lacks feeling.  In fact Nerva views all the members of his squad as family.  He simply believes that a warrior puts his enemies down quickly and effectively; and can often be seen on the battlefield putting an extra bolt through the enemy’s skull for good measure.

 

BANG! “It’s put down…”

 

 

 

 

 

C&C welcome, thanks for stopping by!

[Bjorn Firewalker]

Excellent work on Nerva's model. Is he posed firing a shot into a fallen foe's head, to make sure his enemies aren't playing dead and preparing to stab him in the back the moment he walks past them?

[space wolf]

Pretty much, I just imagine on any givin' battlefield there are times when they meet very little resistance, and they just casually walk through shooting. Every now and then one has to finish an enemy off.

[grailkeeper]

Love the cavalry helmet!

[space wolf]

Love the cavalry helmet!

Thought you might. ;) Thanks for the suggestion!

[space wolf]

More work done, I give you 

 

Brother Tacitus

 

 

 

 

 

 

C&C Welcome, thanks for stopping by!

[acrowsperch]

Big Du$ty (very dusty). I like it!

[Bjorn Firewalker]

Great job on Tacitus' model!

[Monstra Sumus]

Nerva & Tacitus are fine additions!
