Violent Gods: 3rd return to the hobby's the charm? (Updated 05/14/2024)

[bloodhound23]

Head? Chosen.

Belt? Adorned.
 

Finished! Got some painting done as well, but I’ll save that for next time. 
 

Hopefully the GS work will even out after some paint. I guess it can go bad? Oh well.

Looks good to me

That looks good, I like the chain and skull from the belt. Adds something.. And is unique? Cool pose and heroic with the plasma pistol and bolt gun.

Thank you! All very thoughtful and much appreciated. The skull on the chain is from the WFB Flagellants kit, and I think it helps tie in with the background of my faction as largely ex-Silver Skulls, who are headtakers.

Teaser from the knees up since I haven’t finished bases yet, but other than that and some Ardcoat on the lenses this is one of the 5 from my original post that I have redone in the new and improved scheme. 

[bloodhound23]

The 5 models that are posted at the very beginning of this thread have probably been built for 7ish years?

 

Halfway painted once, and then repainted. Between this and the Kill Team, that puts me at 11 models this year, plus a few terrain pieces from last year.

 

I really never thought I'd do it! Cheers to everyone doing the challenges and posting their progress.

 

Finally finished!

 

 

Thanks for looking!

[Firedrake Cordova]

Good to see they finally got their paint  

[bloodhound23]

A little freehand WIP for this one off that I did in parallel with the last batch of models. Need to make it white now that the shape is roughly correct. 
 

Lots of points if you can guess the chapter from the symbol alone!

[Firedrake Cordova]

Very nice  No idea on the chapter!

Ooh is it inceptors? 

[Rusted Boltgun]

That barrel is particularly nice. That's been HOT!

Nailed it! 
 

[bloodhound23]

There’s more that could be done, but it’s a test model and I’m ready to move on.

 

I’d still like to try to do some transfers on the other shoulder to test out doing it on some containers as well. 
 

Looks fine at a distance, and I’m certainly guilty of putting way too much effort into rank and file, or so I’m learning. 
 

Inceptor test Marine done!

[bloodhound23]

Maybe the last of the command squad/lieutenant cadre. 
 

I like to think this is what became of the once-loyal Captain Kehan from my Index Traitoris from Iron Gauntlet 2017 in my bio.

 

A duelist, perhaps treating these paired blades as lightning claws. I scuffed up the combat knife a bit to give it more of an Anathema look. 
 

Need to fill out the belt as usual, but I’m happy with the pose and the feel. 

[bloodhound23]

P.S.

 

Forgot to show off the pommel that was carefully modified from an eagle into a snake head.

 

[Firedrake Cordova]

Nicely posed - very imposing  

[Pearson73]

Love the layered pauldrons, he looks really brutish and imposing. Really nice touch with the knife pommel too!

You continue to deliver, absolutely top-tier level of kitbashing.
