Brother Abdiel Posted April 6, 2006 Share Posted April 6, 2006 hi there, during the time b&c was down i took my time to start recycling my old plastic termis. since i always wanted to start a deathwing-army, this was my chance to put these oldies to some use... i used the back the tda together with the sergeants mk. 8 torso (thanks to brother sinear from www.repent.be for the inspiration). both arms came from logan grimnar but i thought a sword would fit my GM nuch better (it is from the old termi-captain). i used plasticsheets to make him taller and broader (he Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/84480-grandmaster-of-the-deathwing-wip/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
philbrad Posted April 6, 2006 Share Posted April 6, 2006 Wow ^_^ Love the 'stretched' robes over the top of the Termi armour. Very dynamic pose. Like this guy lots. :ph34r: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/84480-grandmaster-of-the-deathwing-wip/#findComment-976724 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaplain Desmodus Posted April 6, 2006 Share Posted April 6, 2006 Very nice GS work, can we see a pic of the back? How about a black robe with bone trim? Then you could keep the little DA Icons red and green.

==Me== Posted April 7, 2006 Share Posted April 7, 2006 Wow! :cry: That looks great, I like the GK parts, they look great without the horrible GK terminator body attached ^_^ As for the robes, I think black would look quite nice, or at least a darker brown.

Grimdarkness Posted April 7, 2006 Share Posted April 7, 2006 Purple or a dark royal blue for the cloak maybe looks good so far Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/84480-grandmaster-of-the-deathwing-wip/#findComment-977981 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Callas Posted April 7, 2006 Share Posted April 7, 2006 Dang! You wait a few months for the BnC to come back for inspiration and then this comes up - seeing as I've got the Grimnar model for the charging Termi legs I had the axe arm free. Thanks to you, now I know exactly what to do with it. Blatant ideas-nicking will now begin....

Sandalphon Posted April 8, 2006 Share Posted April 8, 2006 Thats looking like a really sweet conversion, nice gs work and a dynamic pose - lets hope the paintjob will do it justice! I painted my deathwing captains robe white with a black and white checkered pattern (like the old rt guys) arouns the border, the scrawled some text in the middle (sry dont have a pic) while its still pretty close to the bone armor is has enough definition to read as a seperate part. Otherwise i would say go with your standard DA green robes, its common for a reason :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/84480-grandmaster-of-the-deathwing-wip/#findComment-978283 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cypher441 Posted April 8, 2006 Share Posted April 8, 2006 Love that GS work, great use of seperate models too for the conversion. My hat goes off to you. If you intend to use the standard Bleach Bone armour, then I think the robe would be best in a DA green, however I have seen some good miniatures that have lightish brown robes that can look quite good if they're done properly. It can help emphasise the monk look that associates with DAs. Throw some tears into the robe and frayed ends and you're onto a winner. :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/84480-grandmaster-of-the-deathwing-wip/#findComment-978286 Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Angelus Sanctus Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 Nice work on the robes, looking good :P Definitely a better attempt than the robes ive tried making on a basic marine, although i was happy in the fact it didnt look really bad. Plus, making robes over legs is a pain in any case :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/84480-grandmaster-of-the-deathwing-wip/#findComment-991766 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZAChos Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 I'd paint the armour green or black, and the robes bone. thats what the special characters have, even though they aren't in termie armour.

I shall tear your flesh Posted September 10, 2006 Share Posted September 10, 2006 Looks very nice, but matte varnish it to dull the shine. Shiney capes look strange. But brilliant sculpt!
