chaos lord baal-aph Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 hi i recently stumbled upon a box of new termies and was considering converting them all to the forces of chaos, when i remebered, wait i field abaddon, maybe i should convert him... so i am about to embark on this conversion and it hit me, i have no good pose for him. i have the index astartes 4 and obviously the chaos codex, but was wondering if there are any more pictures of the warmaster, before i start the modeling. then i was going to ask for a vote for which would be the most intimidating pose and model it from there. i will still be using the lighting claw, head, and sword from the orginal model. thanks for the help in advanced Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/89604-converting-abaddon/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr_lee_ Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 The only one I can currently think of is that you can make it look like he's goading the enemy to come and get him with his claw and make his sword look like its ready to strike. Its in the bakc of the Chaos Codex. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/89604-converting-abaddon/#findComment-1030494 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commander Trask Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 i will still be using the lighting claw, head, and sword from the orginal model. i'd try for a different head, there are lots of ecellent plastic heads roaming the kits these days, marine and chaos bare heads (khorne berzerker head or some from the new command squad/captain set spring to mind. the original head (well the one as we know it) wasn't supposed to be.. it only ended up thatway cos some nerk dropped the original resin master and broke it (official word from GW dudes when i was at Conflict Scotland cos i asked about a new abaddon fig.) but if you feel handy with GS then make a good head using a bare plastic and gs. but its your model your choice. I hope it turns out a goodie! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/89604-converting-abaddon/#findComment-1030686 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurgan the Lurker Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 You can always bulk him up with some quick conversion work. This is an old Black Legion Sorceror I did in Terminator armor named Sanamar but the conversion (Archeon's body and Sauron's arm) would work just as well for Abaddon: http://www.duckblindminiatures.com/images/bleg/sanamar1.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/89604-converting-abaddon/#findComment-1030707 Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Q- Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 Wow that's awesome Kurgan. That Sauron's Arm is so perfect. I've been struggling to find a good right hand for my Terminator.

TheDarkApostle Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 I must add that the pic of the Warmaster on the front of Codex Eye of Terror really is good. Dwang it would be cool if someone could make a model of that :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/89604-converting-abaddon/#findComment-1030719 Share on other sites More sharing options...
