StratoKhan Posted May 27, 2006 Share Posted May 27, 2006 Nice, are all the troops going to have wings? It was a nice idea to keep the backpack. Can't wait to see the whole unit. I don't know if it might be better to base the units on larger 40mm bases, like Termis, as I'd see their wings getting in each other's way with smaller bases. *twitch*...pegusi...*twitch* :huh: 'Pegasi'.

Ardante Posted May 27, 2006 Share Posted May 27, 2006 Thats really amazing. Did you have to weight the base down though or is it a stable model?

Caroline Posted May 27, 2006 Author Share Posted May 27, 2006 Ardante: No weight is needed, the whole model is done in plastic and its weight is insignificant. Right now it is only blue-taced to keep it upright :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/88045-updated-spacemarine-angel/page/2/#findComment-1016302 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aciid_Daemon Posted May 28, 2006 Share Posted May 28, 2006 I'm liking that model a lot. It looks really good although I would add something to the top of the backpack. Maybe I could offer you an alternative colour scheme to what you were think of, white armor, brown wings and red robes. I like the terminator broken wing idea. Can't wait to see this model finished let alone an entire squad.

Principality Posted June 3, 2006 Share Posted June 3, 2006 That looks awesome! Can you post the complete bits list, I have so much problems finding left-handed swords. The only thing different I would do is use a Brettonian knight errant head instead of the helmet. Anyways, congrats!

Legacy40k Posted June 3, 2006 Share Posted June 3, 2006 Looks good, but I'm afraid I am going to have to report this to the inquisition, mutations and such, sign of chaos. -Legacy40k That looks awesome! Can you post the complete bits list, I have so much problems finding left-handed swords. The only thing different I would do is use a Brettonian knight errant head instead of the helmet. Anyways, congrats! I'm pretty sure the marine is all bits from the Black Templars squad box, and the wings are from a Bretonnian Pegasus Knight.

Belchuil Posted June 3, 2006 Share Posted June 3, 2006 Lol yeah i expect the Inquisition to come calling as well (of course, no one would expect it :) ...) The Inquisitor would come along and cook some chicken wings. Unfortuneatly it wouldn't be chicken :P Smells of Tzeentch to me :wink: Ah well, Sanguinius had wings, no complaining from me a BA player.

Night-Stalker Posted June 3, 2006 Share Posted June 3, 2006 ...I have so much problems finding left-handed swords. In the Space Marine Commander box you get a left handed sword.

Chronophague Posted June 3, 2006 Share Posted June 3, 2006 First off, don't make gold colored swords, make gold colored hilts. Gold, is not a strong metal, and shouldn't be used for blades. Other than that I think it looks good, tho I find myself wondering that your squads will be pretty widely dispersed because of the wings, and jamming them into cover close to each other might prove a problem. Tho, I would be pretty sure, that such small game mechanical issues are not really that much of a concern. In my opinion, it would be nice, to see the wings in white, and the spacemarine in some form of perhaps creamy coloured armor, with the wings in a blueish hue of white, to get that angelic feel to them. Perhaps have shoulder trims in gold as well. :lol: All in all some intresting stuff, they just have to be some form of kindred spirits to my own Angels. ;) With bigger wings tho. http://usera.imagecave.com/kronork/Angel_Guard/captel0.jpg Cheers Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/88045-updated-spacemarine-angel/page/2/#findComment-1022564 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Principality Posted June 3, 2006 Share Posted June 3, 2006 A gold-colored blade does not mean that it is made out of gold. It could be polished bronze.

Chronophague Posted June 3, 2006 Share Posted June 3, 2006 A gold-colored blade does not mean that it is made out of gold. It could be polished bronze. It could be tons of different metals, but people will think gold. And to boot, gold swords look weird.

Hertz Posted June 3, 2006 Share Posted June 3, 2006 Legacy 40k: do you the Inquistion would mind a chapter that mirrors the image of one of the Emperors primarchs? hmm..... and NMM gold would be ... different. but it might work out, I believe, especially considering the fact that everything else are will be some kind of white, apparently :D Pure and Angelic ;) and considering tha ammount of blades that are black, blue, and green... :P a full Assault squad like that will be impressive!

Freebooter Posted June 3, 2006 Share Posted June 3, 2006 I had some ideas for how you could have an army like this. Use the trait that lets you take Assault squads as elites, this'll give you heaps of these awesome dudes. I had a thought for your troop choices as well. If the wings are actually part of the marine you could say fluff wise that they are still developing and use scouts with small wings or big stumps to show that they are the young ones. For the Tac marines you could give them stumps and say that they are the cast off from the assault squads and in training to join the terminator squads. If they are part of the armour you don't need to do anything special and just come up with a reason for why they arn't in the air with their brothers. On colour scheme, I think a white would make these guys look REALLY sweet. You could then paint the wings to look like eagle's wings. So several brown tones and the white armour. Alternitavely you could paint the armour black and give them either whit or black wings. Just my opinion. Feel free to bite back, what do i know about angels? I'm just a wolf.

Legacy40k Posted June 4, 2006 Share Posted June 4, 2006 Legacy 40k: do you the Inquistion would mind a chapter that mirrors the image of one of the Emperors primarchs? hmm..... Well, yes... This is the inquisition after all. If they were around during the time of Sanguinius, I'm sure they'd have had something to say about it. As it is, they arent big fans of the bloodangels because of the whole rage thing. -Legacy40k Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/88045-updated-spacemarine-angel/page/2/#findComment-1022749 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blood Angel IV Posted June 4, 2006 Share Posted June 4, 2006 Tis lovely. Hmm...Maybe I should do something like this. Hang on... (Does some maths working out the cost of a five man squad). SWEET!

Chronophague Posted June 4, 2006 Share Posted June 4, 2006 @hertz Aha, ok, I very seldom go to the GW shop. And some months after chapter master, I got completely bored of 40K and FB, so I took a break. Never saw any posters :devil: Cheers Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/88045-updated-spacemarine-angel/page/2/#findComment-1023322 Share on other sites More sharing options...
