dice4thedicegod Posted March 14, 2021 Share Posted March 14, 2021 Got the first awakenings of a new dynasty! He-Guilliman may have the power of Greyshields but the galaxy belongs to the Skeletoran!

Xenith Posted March 15, 2021 Share Posted March 15, 2021 I thought this might be you initially. I like your scheme more, it's more subtle.

dice4thedicegod Posted March 16, 2021 Author Share Posted March 16, 2021 A couple more warriors and a “Trapjaw” inspired royal warden. I considered going more extreme on the warden, maybe adding an ork lower jaw, but decided to stay pure necron and just use color palette to suggest the theme. Though I may add a couple of ‘horns’ to the overlords staff of light.

Kristoff Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 It's too bad there is no Flayer King to do Beastman with. Triclops could be done by one of the Crypteks, I think, unless you want to head swap a Destroyer. Evil-lyn should definitely be a Cryptek with a staff.

dice4thedicegod Posted March 20, 2021 Author Share Posted March 20, 2021 I just ordered a model that I’ll use as an evil-lyn cryptek. Almost got a 25PL crusade force (8 more warriors to go - all part painted!)

dice4thedicegod Posted March 21, 2021 Author Share Posted March 21, 2021 Playing around with a transcendent c’tan... trying to go heavy on the lightning (I see a lot of warp lightning contrast and moot green in this guy’s future) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/369510-skelatoran-dynasty/#findComment-5681323 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mandragola Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 Yeah I like the C’tan a lot. I’m planning to get those endless spells myself actually, to add lightning to stuff.

dice4thedicegod Posted March 22, 2021 Author Share Posted March 22, 2021 A bit more chopping and some paint on the c’tan... still not sure if I’m happy with the pose or if I should get a different figure (necron warrior?) to be between the stones?

Mandragola Posted March 22, 2021 Share Posted March 22, 2021 I think maybe a different figure could work better. That skeleton just seems kind of small. It could look like just some victim of whatever is happening there, rather than the protagonist. I’d consider looking at the night haunt range. Something like the banshee women or the mortarch of grief, maybe. Or else maybe something non-corporeal like a big floating skull on its own. dice4thedicegod 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/369510-skelatoran-dynasty/#findComment-5681782 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xenith Posted March 22, 2021 Share Posted March 22, 2021 Why even have the skeleton? Two weird crystals floating about would also work as the physical manifestation of a star god?

dice4thedicegod Posted March 22, 2021 Author Share Posted March 22, 2021 (edited) Why even have the skeleton? Two weird crystals floating about would also work as the physical manifestation of a star god? Ha ha - it could, but the. I’d feel like I was just proxying instead of having a conversion! I think maybe a different figure could work better. That skeleton just seems kind of small. It could look like just some victim of whatever is happening there, rather than the protagonist. I’d consider looking at the night haunt range. Something like the banshee women or the mortarch of grief, maybe. Or else maybe something non-corporeal like a big floating skull on its own. Ah man, now I’m thinking about the giant skull and whether I could paint it yellow to go with the dynasty vibe. If I end up ripping the head off a toy Skelator and sticking it on here, it’s down to you!
