Space Hulk Modeling Thread


Recommended Posts

I've got a laundry list of things to do both in the hobby and the real world. I'm tempted to finish up my FT Terminator Squad though. What's the deadline?

 

I think we see so many BA players because everyone loves the models but don't love the BA rules with them. This is a chance to be free of the sting while enjoying the models, for the first time for some I'm sure.

The Angels of the Lion are technically a DA based Termie Co (the AotL being an X founding via the Dark Angels) ;)

 

 

As for me, dang OMG, give me more incentive to sign up by putting my name in ;) :tu:

 

I'll definitely give it some thought (at this stage I think im glad my OOP termies arent painted). Ill keep you informed (not to mention I should really read the background and rules for this ;)).

Sorry, I forgot to mention where my Termies hail from.

 

Ultramarines.

 

I plan to do a Space Hulk setup involving Ultramarines vs Tyranid Hormagaunts and warriors.

 

I know it is not traditional, but I like the way the slashy-slashy Hormagaunts look. The Genestealers are too cartoonish.

Well IF I agree to sign my name away on the dotted line, My terminators will be following the lead of ==M'Lord== and thus, Angels of the Lion all the way :P

 

 

Just a bit of house keeping, since this isnt strictly a competition, I assume (from what Ive seen thus far) allowed to post WIP shots of our termies as they progress along? And when is our scheduled dead line to complete them? (Im sure ill have to cross check with Refuse about weapon options to make sure they are within the rules of the SH AoD).

 

 

And, since Oblit has done it, it is ok that bases dont match up with the map right? As ill be wanting to try and keep my Termies within my army base theme which will be a bit of a forrest like scene.

 

Still debating whether to recycle old termies or give in and buy a box..... :devil:

Ba libby with familar will give a stealer a run for its money in HTH!!

 

Ordered my termies today, already have chaplin primed. Also ordered some rare earth magnets for interchangable arms!!

 

So much money being spent. . . . . . .

 

Why did you start this topic OMG!? :unsure:

 

Cheers,

 

AR

5 OOP Termies to be completed by mid-june.. This.. could.. get... interesting.. :unsure:

 

 

 

Thank goodness the main scheme is black.. but.. DANG! Guess ill have to re-double my efforts now since SOMEONE *glances at a particular mod that isnt Oblit this time around* forged my signature on the dotted line :)

 

 

Man.. first it was Oblit bopping me over the head with a bolter, now its OMG bopping me over the head with a storm bolter... Ok.. so whose the next mod that will bop me over the head with a HEAVY BOLTER to get something done?!?!?! ;)

OMG:: count my Blood Drinkers successor chapter in raising the BA sub-forum up by 1.

 

I'm still confused as to how the squads are to be arranged as I don't see a reason why everyone wouldn't want an IC in a squad of 5. As it stands, I'm going to make a Sanguinary High Priest termie armed w/ reductor/narthecium, power axe, and grimnar styled storm bolter. In a pinch he can simply be a vet sarge leading a squad of termies (1 fixed ac, 1 magnetized h. flamer).

 

Personally, I think it'd be cool to see the BA and successors on a space crusade whoopin' ass on the same hulk.

Great.. X B&Cers vs One Refuse... It cant be all that bad can it? :D

 

 

At this point in time, dare i ask is it a compulsory choice for a HQ choice? Or will 5 terminators be sufficient? (I somewhat havent made ANY plans for a HQ choice at all).

Darn you CRasterImage, darn you to heck. Saw your magno-termines and it lit the fire under my butt.

 

So I was already going to use a termie command sqaud with my Laconia Legion deep strike/drop pod army, just need something to get me going on the paiting. So between Refuse and CRasterImage, the fire is a burning.

 

So my commander is Agamemnon, for the AOD he'll be a seargent - Storm Bolter and Power Sword.

For the rest of the squad, 3 power fists and a chain fist for up close, an assault cannon, heavy flamer and 2 storm bolters for ranged.

 

Now this load out is different from my 40K command squad, that has 2 assault cannons, a sergant with storm bolter and power sword and a tropper with storm bolter and chain fist. So what do I do?, why magents ahoy :angry:

 

So here we have the base 4 termies:

Each are set up with magnets in the shoulders

This will allow me to swap out weapons as needed. But I hear you already, what about the outer shoulder-pad?? Well fear not, for I have magnetized them as well.

So here we have my Sgt

But with a quick flip, we remove the shoulder pad

Or just replace the arm

So all four of the command squad can swap out their weapons as needed, looks like I might have to pick up a close assualt sprue in the future :blink:

Count my brothers in for this scrap.

 

I've already started a space wolves wolf guard pack with lightning claws, i think that using guns is for panzies. My quote when they go into combat (i actually stole it from an Eldar player) is "They slice, they dice, they even make french fries".

I'll post my pics as soon as i can get the time away from school to put them on their bases.
