Inquisitor!


Recommended Posts

alot of =][= popping up lately, so i figured id throw in my own as well.

 

Inquisitor Devlin Perr'o of the Ordos Xenos.

 

this particular mini went through a few different models before i finally stuck with the one i liked most.

 

version I:

Nid hunter mode. i liked it back then, but then someone had remarked that, "so he can kill rippers, he's like the greatest hero in Imperial History..." this hit a bit close to home for me, so i decided to change him.

 

version II:

still in a nid hunting theme here, changed the head for a cadian respirator head, and one of the shoulder pads.

 

version III:

changed the position of the war scythe, and also painted the rod red. at this point, i started questioning the necessity for the marine backpack, it just didnt seem to fit right and seemed rather redundant.

 

final version:

removed the rod from the warscythe, it was confusing people. some kids just cant get their heads around the concept of "counts as"... changed the shoulder pads to something a little more imperial, i quite like how they turned out. removed the backpack and gave him a replacement. loads of knick knacks, and an autogun, perfect for an inquisitor.

 

so, penny for your thoughts?

I'm glad you changed it from the first one. Looked a bit on the 'radical' side, or maybe too much like a mutation... The final product is much better.

Nah, that's just a slew of new people making useless posts the Mods have to melta. It's part of a normal cycle around here... :lol:

the first draft did look a lil' mutated (and we all know how the inquisition feel about that!) i liked the last model. very orginal i thought.

would love to see some pics when you get finished painting.

 

P.S:any ideas on what you might use for a retinue?

 

ahahaha... i don't get things painted ;) for me, its one conversion project after another, there is no time to get things painted.

 

as for the retinue, the current setup im planning on is:

warrior with hellgun

warrior with shotgun

The shotgun veteran and acolyte are incredibly good. Do you get any of these things painted? At all? Or do you have a friend who drools over the opportunity?

 

in the 12 years ive spent in the hobby, i have only one painted army, and most of it was painted already when i bought it.

 

my sister however, isnt really into the gaming aspect of the hobby, and does enjoy painting, so i usually dump all my mini's on her table when i need stuff painted ;) but she has to work alot of the time now, so i dont get much painted at all now.

 

me? i love gaming and converting!

I am likeing the Inquisitor a lot, very original and gives a good impresion of using technology not available to most worriors of the imperium. I would love to see him painted when your sister gets him done :P . Also i have to say the woriors are very cool, I am likeing facemask on the hellgun warrior a lot. With just a little bit of GS you could make it really good, i just think you need some pipes and stuff.

 

Good work and keep it up!

He looks great!

 

Love the furry warrior

 

as Aquila has noticed, the hellgun warrior isnt human (sharp eye there Aquila), so the mask isnt really there to assist in breathing, but actually to just hide his face. cant be seen openly employing xenos now can i? :P

very nice models, always good to see inquisitors with equipment that stands out as non standard issue

 

What did you paint the rod with to get such a crisp red?

 

its an acrylic paint thats used for painting the lights on model cars.

 

Tamiya color. Clear red: X-27

The Necron staff thing is just too different to work with the military retinue, same with the Tyranid bits. Drop them both, as neither really complements the look of the Inquistor. Find a smaller bolt pistol, that thing is way too big. A ornate chainsword would make a really nice alternative, or just some kind of nice sword thing.

 

I love what you've done with the Warriors and Acolytes, but the Gun Servitor has a few too many Tau bits on it. Come on, the Ordo Xenos only use alien weapons when faced with no alternative. :P

 

Really though, great work so far. But that Gun Servitor is way too Tau.

the orignal concept was to make him look as xenos influenced as possible while still retaining the resemblance to the inquisition, and as a radical, ill use what i like when i like -_-

the tyranid bits have been dropped already, the finalized version has no nid' parts on him at all. the "warscythe" has also been modified to look less like a warscythe and more like a glaive.

Okay I'll admit, I knew about the fur already, first from FurAffinity then from warseer

 

heh, yeh, old pics. they certainly get around though :wacko:

 

they look pretty good.

question though, where dis the legs etc for the acolyte come from?

cheers

millest

 

the lower torso and legs are from Lt varass from the Macragge set, while the boots are from a kasrkin mini.

brilliant stuff! love to see those radical ]['s :lol: to bad you left the green transparent necron rod out. otherwise everythings really neat and nice. like esecially the tau bitz on theh ellgun and of course the plasma canon "servitor" although i admit, that i expected a normalservitor with a tau plasmagut from a combat suit. i definiately need to think about adding some stuff on my vakyrie. but from which xeno to take it? i'll have to order bits anway i think.
