Anime Inspired Deathwing Project


Recommended Posts

So taking a break from a few armies in my collection. Started on taking on the Deathwing Assault Box that was gifted for the holidays and then some. Started the Black Primer and painting them in Pre Horus Hersey Era colors.

Finished up my anime/manga inspired Lion El’Johnson. So I’m going to use this as the scheme for the rest of my Deathwing.

 

Started work on Belial and my Ancient. Still Waiting on the Librarian in Terminator Armor. I’ll see about making that Libby more Deathwing and hope I still have enough bits to make it.

I'm not into anime and Manga, what makes this an anime?  I love the red robes,  and how nice the Lion turned out.  Good work. 


its the painting style and some of the effects. I was inspired by some of the art style of Goblin Slayer and Berserk, but thanks none the less, I appreciate it.
 

side note: I changed my Chaplain to the new sculpt. built it slight different from the box art and even got myself a leviathan Librarian.

I also started working on the Ancient as well as Belial. Being a busy bee.

Made some more progress on that Ancient.

The Ancient was built from the bones of the new Terminator Captain using hits from the Dark Angels Knights kit, the new Dark Angels upgrade sprue, and the Inner Circle Box sets. I was going to make it complicated, trying to make the old parts work but this works outs.

WIP Deathwing Terminator Sergeants, Librarian, New Terminator Chaplain, and Belial. I replaced Tarentus and converted him back to his original model because well since the army has new sculpts, let’s be consistent.

added 30k Banners because I was feeling Nostalgia with 2nd Ed Banners.

I finally settled on the blue for the Libby but still trying to make it look like Deathwing.

 

More Progress to follow.

As I was continuing the project, my wife pointed out that I apparently painted the houses of Hogwarts. Now I can’t unsee it and now I’m on full send lol. She recommended the two schools from Goblet of Fire.

Update: I changed my list to incorporate a full 10 man Squad of Deathwing Terminators led by the Librarian in Terminator Armor. I kept the two Plasma Cannons in that squad. IMG_3104.thumb.jpeg.d2a7dc3105bead025fe905aac640f268.jpeg

I’ll call a spade a spade;  this list isn’t that great. However, man does it look cool. Played a game last night as a first outing and it was against Grey Knights. I lost by 10 points 67-57. All he had left on the board was a Dread Knight.  We ended it on turn 4. We talked it over on points and I would have killed the dread knight by the last turn. 
 

We talked it out on the last turn and yeah I would have killed that dread knight since it was down to the last few wounds. 

My mvps were the Brutalis Dreadnought, Lion, Squad Ravenclaw( blue/white Deathwing Knights), and the 10 man blob of Deathwing Terminators lead by the Librarian

I haven’t played enough 10th Ed leviathan to remember that Tactical gave you the option to skip your secondaries for 1 CP. I played it out with just fixed objectives.

 

 

Here are some of the highlights, but only took two pictures. Lol.

Ha, looks like an “Oh Sh*t” moment for the GK as the Lion is Walking towards you in anime fashion.

The whole thing gave my opponent to pause and rethink on what to do. Squad Gryffindor, Belial, and the Ancient holding their ground as the Brutalis Dreadnought is coming up the Field.

I felt things were missing; so I added details.

 

IMG_3194.thumb.jpeg.ba088acca54f98174ac7de9cf7273f3b.jpeg

 

I updated and detailed the bases.

 

IMG_3196.thumb.jpeg.7da51e4b8ace0d1aea09444231c1f0ea.jpeg

 

I went old school and applied Warboss Green on the bases just because I was feeling nostalgic with Goblin Green bases.

Goblin Green Bases sometimes just hits just right for Nostalgic vibes.

Played against world eaters the other day and I was amazed on how the knights stood their ground against Angron. I felt like man did I waste 1 CP on Duty unto Death? Lol. Khârn is brutal, he killed two Deathwing Terminators by himself.

The more I look at the anime eye flare using wire, the more I am hating it. So I used Woodland Scenics Water Effect and thinned out contrast red. I used that water effect because it dries clear.
