VtrAxX Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 nice converting mate.. :D But whats with the injured cadian on the base??

Primarch16 Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 That chaplain looks awsome, the pose, the model; He looks ace... Damnit though, that cadian wrecks the whole think, I would seriously recomend slicing it of and burning it. The chaplain with LC doesnt really look like a chaplain though, more skulls and such would be nice. The biker is cool. And the termi armour guy looks kinda weird, sort of out of proportion.

Kyarl Deathaxe Posted June 19, 2006 Author Share Posted June 19, 2006 The reason for the injured Cadian being on the base is that when i first started this mini i was going to remove the Cadian's head & replace it with a plastic one so that it looked more like a marine scout, i actually liked how it turned out, that & the fact that alot of the people i go up against play Guard armies. Its also not forced to be painted in imperial loyalist colours, i thought about painting it as a traitor guardsman :lol: Nick :lol: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/89867-wip-chaplain-best-so-far/#findComment-1033897 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragoonman Posted June 19, 2006 Share Posted June 19, 2006 Nice job! Overall, a simple, unique conversion. I can't say that I'm a fan of the helmet, but I've never seen the attraction to skull helmets. :lol: I also love the base. I've been meaning to order some more of the old ruins kits for basing, I love them for simple scenic stuff! Also, where are those legs from? they're pretty nice!

Night Dragon Posted June 19, 2006 Share Posted June 19, 2006 The crozius (crozii? croziuses?) on them all are very nice, at least one I can tell is custom (on the termie armor). A few questions. Why is there an iron halo on the lightning claw chaplain? Chaplains don't really use those, I believe. Also, what is the arm on the terminator chaplain? Is it a storm bolter, combi melta, I can't tell. Last question: do you intend to use 4 chaplains? They're all very nice, so are you just planning on swapping them based on the list? I personally have one for each marine army. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/89867-wip-chaplain-best-so-far/#findComment-1033933 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rymeer Posted June 19, 2006 Share Posted June 19, 2006 I don't mind the Cadian on the base, but I do have to point out that the chaplain's loin cloth is not attached correctly. As modeled, it's connected to the flexible section between the leg plates and the lower torso plate, instead of the belt line as it should be. I would suggest snapping it off and re-positioning it higher so the studs on the ends of the loincloth line up with the belt. Other than that, I have no negative comments on the model. Get it painted. The concept looks good. Rymeer Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/89867-wip-chaplain-best-so-far/#findComment-1033964 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master_Aerethos Posted June 19, 2006 Share Posted June 19, 2006 Love the chappie. But here is my one and only question: Where are the legs from????? I pretty much love them to death, and don't recognize where they're from. Thanks!

I pretty much love them to death, and don't recognize where they're from. Thanks! I think thier shaved Chaos Marine legs, but they might be Shaved Khorne legs.

Moribund the Burgermeister Posted June 19, 2006 Share Posted June 19, 2006 The lags are Khorne Berzerker legs, not trimmed down at all (if I see correctly), and the head comes from the Chaos Undivided sprue. Nice Chaplains, I dig the wounded Cadian on the base! :devil: Cheers; Moribund!

Brother Caliban Posted June 19, 2006 Share Posted June 19, 2006 It's a solid piece. Constructvley and thus personally there is something a little 'chunky' about it, what I mean is that it's entire plasticness lacks detail in some key area. The Cruzious for example could do with being made of brass rod and attached to a metal detailed cruzious detial (I know it's a plain to drill metal), more intracacy will make it look alot better I think that's all. I don't rate entire plastic models much though but I am not saying it can't be done just don't limit your talents! :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/89867-wip-chaplain-best-so-far/#findComment-1034326 Share on other sites More sharing options...
TechnoMagi Posted June 19, 2006 Share Posted June 19, 2006 why does he have an iron halo if he has a rosarius for free? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/89867-wip-chaplain-best-so-far/#findComment-1034333 Share on other sites More sharing options...
