Tubal Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 The custom sarcophagus makes a huge difference :lol: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/86804-vultures-of-nekhbet-aegyptus-astartes-painting-log/page/2/#findComment-1020545 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commander Flintlock Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 Sweet work, thunderball. Loving what you're doing with the Aegyptus, you've made a very cool concept into a cooler realisty. One thing: no sword? Awwww... :P But I have to agree with Tubal, the custom sarcophagus is the finishing touch on a great miniature. Looks great, man. And... two days? Gah... took me weeks, without conversion or anything... Pff. *slinks back to his prayer cell, armour's servos sounding suspiciously like a kicked puppy, glaring enviously over his shoulderpad* Â An idea just hit, not sure whether its anything good, but... The glaives are too big for HQ and sergeants Could you use ushabti parts for a terminator conversion? I'm seeing a mix of parts from the ushabti, Thousand Sons and the new terminator kit... Might make a sweet bodyguard/retinue for your commander... just an idea. Â Keep up the great work, thunder. Adversius Imperialis flagrare in ira ab Adeptus Astartes.

Kaldoth Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 Wow! Really really nice dreadie mate ^_^ Im dissappointed to see he doesnt have a sword, but I think Ill get over it...eventually... :P :D Anyway, Im sorry to say, but that vulture takes away from the entire model IMO. It looks really cartoony :P Other than that, I like it alot :D Â -Kaldoth Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/86804-vultures-of-nekhbet-aegyptus-astartes-painting-log/page/2/#findComment-1030262 Share on other sites More sharing options...
thunderball44 Posted June 25, 2006 Author Share Posted June 25, 2006 26/6/05 OK, No posts for a long time, but starting again.  I have procured the parts for afull devastator squad, and am beginning to work my way through the painting process. I am also working on the first of the scratch-build droppods, which hopefully I will have completedand photographed by wednesday.  The squad contains three missile launchers and a heavy bolter, which will laterbe replaced with a fourth missile launcher.  Other than that, thanks for the replies and support.  Commander Flintlock- Unfortunately, there will be no terminators in this army. The three main guidelines for the army are:  1) No terminators 2) No vehicles except droppods, dreadnoughts and landspeeders 3) All tactical squads/ command squads must take a droppod  Restricts me, but I like the restritions. As to the no sword issue, that's only temporary until I find a cheap ushabti, or manage to make the blade myself.  -Kaldoth, The one on the plaque or the one on his shoulder?  Last thing, does anyone have any ideas on making a missile launcher more aegyptian?  Until later, thunderball44 Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/86804-vultures-of-nekhbet-aegyptus-astartes-painting-log/page/2/#findComment-1039363 Share on other sites More sharing options...
thunderball44 Posted June 26, 2006 Author Share Posted June 26, 2006 This is an old model, but I thought I'd put it up. It's my commander.

Chaplain Desmodus Posted June 26, 2006 Share Posted June 26, 2006 Very cool conversion, the blade and shield really work well.

Tubal Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 He's dynamic, that's for sure :blush: Is that shield standard or did you add the motif?
