NightHunters Posted May 14, 2011 Author Share Posted May 14, 2011 Evening all, Just a quick update, still beavering away at the 1st Razorback squad. Finished priming the FellBlade also, remarkable how much black primer it takes to get full coverage! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sgt. Blank Posted May 15, 2011 Share Posted May 15, 2011 Hands up who recognisees that guy in the middle and remembers wen he was on general release? Very nice conversions. If memory serves, the model in the middle is one of the very first marine librarians, although his rather weedy old sword has been replaced with Mephiston's (right?) and you've done a brilliant job of lengthening the legs so he stands eye to eye with contemporary plastics. I think they were phasing that model out around the early to mid 90s; I remember it from the production catalogs. I've got some of the rank and file guys from the same era and they don't get used much due to the sizing issue - great solution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NightHunters Posted May 16, 2011 Author Share Posted May 16, 2011 Guten Abend all! Generating Random Names: You Sir, are obviously a man of great taste, thank you very much indeed! Sgt. Blank: Aah so close,correct on the sword front but not the Librarian, so the cookie is still up for grabs but thanks for the kind words, been holding on to him and a couple like him since, as you point out, the mid Nineties, scared of ruining them with a shoddy paint job so had to figure how to make them fit in with the new plastics, and copied Brother Dan The Deamons extensions (thanks for that!) so that he no longer looks too runty! mromeo1987: Thanks brother, always nice to be complemented in song! And a quick update on the RB squad: And because the Seargents head didn't come out so well: Thanks all FTE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NightHunters Posted May 17, 2011 Author Share Posted May 17, 2011 (edited) And some more progress: Still to come: Final highlights on the green, gold, bone, purple and armour plates and turns out I missed some mould lines on the Boltpistol........bugger.

NightHunters Posted May 19, 2011 Author Share Posted May 19, 2011 Evening all, Right, after all this talk about a Razorback squad, figured it would be best if I showed a Razorback. So thus: Just basecoated, barley, but more progress as and when. Ta all FTE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ephrael Posted May 24, 2011 Share Posted May 24, 2011 I believe that the old model you have lovingly converted was originally a lieutenant commander if my memory serves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NightHunters Posted May 30, 2011 Author Share Posted May 30, 2011 Got a little tired painting hexagons so decided work on my counts as Grey Hunters. Have always armed them with Dark Elf spears in the past but the new Grey Knight halberds are just too good. Both have been biggerized a little bit as well. C&C always welcome FTE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NightHunters Posted May 30, 2011 Author Share Posted May 30, 2011 Still needs to be blinged up with assorted tabards, purity seals, etc but we get the basic idea. Thanks for looking! FTE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NightHunters Posted May 31, 2011 Author Share Posted May 31, 2011 Right, memo to self, never build when aggressively hungover. So now greatly improved, with a combi flamer to turn the Sons of Vulkan green with envy (has to be a pun in there somewhere) and one for fun Thanks all!

Hyaenidae Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 Brother, consider your game raised, lol. That is an outstanding conversion, man. Can't wait to see some paint on him! DaBoiKyknos 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NightHunters Posted June 1, 2011 Author Share Posted June 1, 2011 Heathens: That is high praise indeed, thanks man! Have to admit, am quite happy with him as well and will be sure to get some paint on him soon. But First: This Wee Laddy may take me some time!

Rafen_2 Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 Just pure awesomeness. What gave you the idea to do hexagons? That is actually the reason why I watch your guys grow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doghouse Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 Very nice stuff! Seriously wouldn't want to be on the receiving end of the super heavy though. :) Great theme for the army though and some really nice conversion work going on. The hexagonal paint scheme really makes the army stand out. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
