Firedrake Cordova Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 Nice to see a Mantis Warrior - you don't see them very often. The weathering is nicely done, and I like the base Part of me wonders if a little weathering powder around the base of their boots might be an idea?

Magos Takatus Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 I'm curious about this project. I like how you've taken an often very prim and proper looking livery like the Howling Griffons and made them really battle-worn, perfectly suited to the depictions of the Badab War. I hope to see more. Also, That Mantis Warrior looks fantastic. The old Raptor pack gives him a very peculiar and unique appearance. bloodhound23, Dr_Ruminahui, Mazer Rackham and 2 others 4 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doghouse Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 These look fantastic mate, really love the weathering on the Howling Griffons. You've done a great job of making each unique but unified as a whole. bloodhound23, WrathOfTheLion, sarabando and 1 other 1 3 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WrathOfTheLion Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 (edited) They are all looking fantastic, love the project! The Mantis Warrior and Howling Griffons look great. If you're doing some from all the Badab chapters, can't wait to see some Lamenters and Star Phantoms :). They're my favorite of them.

Halandaar Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 Err excuse me, if you're going to basically do the same Badab project as me can you at least do it worse so I don't feel bad?! In all seriousness, everything looks great and that 3E-Raptor style jump pack really suits the Mantis Warrior guy. I've got a couple of boxes of the Heresy Assault Marines waiting for me to decide which chapters suit those MKVI packs best, looks like Mantis Warriors might well be one of them! sarabando, Firedrake Cordova and LameBeard 1 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subject Kappa: Subject Adeptus Astartes force "Sons of Medusa" see sub fille Theta X - 111/Iron_Hands_LA_X/ Pict record shows special mission force "Asteraon" members of 1st company elite, livery present on armour indicates terminator honours. The mission was led by Codicer Sharrdak Bol, a junior member of the Librarium, one i can find scarce record of. I have cross-referenced the reports from the chapter scribes, Asteraon was an infiltration mission on the world of Kaz'ular. A hive city with an exceptionally resistant void shield array. the local militarum bombardment had caused atmospheric disterbences due to the sheer volume of fire, monsoon rains had turned much of the continent into little more that a sucking quagmire of mud and water. Asteraons mission is classified, i have requested additional information but the chapter scribes refuse my orders despite my station.

MoriyaSchism Posted February 5 Share Posted February 5 I quite like the Codicier. He reminds me of the 4th Edition model without the psychic hood and the Lexicanium 2nd Edition models. Really nice work on the Sons of Medusa and everything else. sarabando and Firedrake Cordova 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
