Riot Earp Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 Do you use the Nephelim Fighters as a Proxy or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cain Tiberius Kondrad Posted October 23, 2015 Author Share Posted October 23, 2015 Thank you for the kind comments guys, very much appreciated. :) I actually get very little oportunity to actually play these days. But that is kind of redundant anyway as there isn't anything in the BA codex that they could be proxied as. I prefer to build/paint more for cool than for rule. So my bikes, speeders and these fighters are following along the lines of the Ravenwing. The Termies will be also be able to proxy Deathwing. While I intend my forces heart to be Blood Angel, I'll be able to field it (when I do get the chance to play) from the DA Codex or Vanila Codex as well as our own BA Codex.

RenderDead Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 Im in the same boat as you, too much work and school right now. Â I go about my hobbying just like you! Â I always go for cool and the off-meta units. Â I should restart my WiP since I have been doing some painting recently finally completed a rhino, some tactical marines, some assault marines, and about finished with Mephiston! Â I was really afraid I would mess him up, but I really like his result. Â I will post soon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cain Tiberius Kondrad Posted December 29, 2015 Author Share Posted December 29, 2015 Hi guys and gals. Hope everyone had a good X-mas. And I hope the Emperor was good to all ;)  Been using the time off to finally get my latest 2 units finished off. So may I present for your viewing pleasure, Brothers Usiell and Jagara.  http://www.ageofstrife.com/gallery2/gallery/d/62865-2/image_013.jpeghttp://www.ageofstrife.com/gallery2/gallery/d/62868-2/image_014.jpeg  http://www.ageofstrife.com/gallery2/gallery/d/62871-2/image_015.jpeghttp://www.ageofstrife.com/gallery2/gallery/d/62874-2/image_016.jpeg http://www.ageofstrife.com/gallery2/gallery/d/62877-2/image_017.jpeg  A friend of mine who is getting out of the hobby gave me these two Contemptors. So I placed his armies chapter symbol on the knee caps of both as a thank you to him. The banners and sculpted bases are hand made by myself though as normal.  Coments and Crits are welcome as always.  CTK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cain Tiberius Kondrad Posted January 6, 2016 Author Share Posted January 6, 2016 Thank you for the kind comments guys I just thought I'd share something I'm working on. I was going to post this in my WiP log, but that sems to have been archived Anywho. I started off with a StormTalon and a Dreadknight. http://www.ageofstrife.com/gallery2/gallery/d/62968-2/image_001.jpeg http://www.ageofstrife.com/gallery2/gallery/d/62974-2/image_003.jpeg http://www.ageofstrife.com/gallery2/gallery/d/62971-2/image_002.jpeg Comments, Critisms and thoughts, related or otherwise always welcome CTK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedemptionNL Posted January 6, 2016 Share Posted January 6, 2016 Ah yes, I've seen similar conversions, I love the concept. What are you going to count it as when you field it? Or is it just going to be a display model? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cain Tiberius Kondrad Posted January 10, 2016 Author Share Posted January 10, 2016 Howdy howdy. After some feeedback on another thread, I looked again at the link between the 2 models, and have moved the upper chassis back by 5mm. I think it impreves the over all balance of the model. In the 1st 2 pics of this post, you will also notice I altered the direction of the steps on the base. When the ankles poped in to the feet sockets, it just seemed better going down the stair case than up. It should be noted at that point, the legs were pinned to the body, but not glued. And there is NO pinning or glue to the base. So it is balancing on its own. Also the intention was always to bulk the legs up a little. At the point I took the above pics, all I was bothered about was getting the basic leg geometry. In the pics below I have added a bit of armour and a couple extra details to help with that. On the last couple pics, I have added the armour and detail to tthe legs. I've also added the missle pods (with some slight modification) from the Missle Defense Platform from ForgeWorld. As for what it is.. Just something I fancied doing. With the weapons I've gven it, the base size its mounted on and its hight off the table, it could still be passable as a Storm Talon. http://www.ageofstrife.com/gallery2/gallery/d/62993-2/image_004.jpeg http://www.ageofstrife.com/gallery2/gallery/d/62996-2/image_005.jpeg http://www.ageofstrife.com/gallery2/gallery/d/62999-2/image_006.jpeg http://www.ageofstrife.com/gallery2/gallery/d/63002-2/image_007.jpeg C&C always welcome :) CTK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rune_Priest_Rhapsody Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 Great looking models, CTK!! I especially like the red on those Contemptors.  This conversion piece is very intriguing, I'm looking forward to seeing the progress on it!! End of Line Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The StormBloodDreadTalonBloodKnightWalkerBloodThing... is finished Fixed Lol, I think it needs more Blood Nice Conversion. Reminds me a litte bit of this Model. http://puppetswar.eu/img/p/322-1182-thickbox.jpg Remove this Heresy most foul..... Oooooh Shiny I really like it!!Also i'd love to know how you painted those windows if you care to share!! Cheers Bud :tu: Yeah, its pretty simple actually. From a black undercoat I painted a single coat of Red Gore (not sure what the new one is). I only did a fairly thin coat so that is looks a lil uneven. When that is dry, I used Troll Slayer Orange to paint on the strokes/shapes you can see using a detail brush. On the side and front windows, I do a few thin streaks nearer the top, and the reflection of cliffs/buildings/fire towards the lower parts. On the top windows I just do the thin streaks. Then to finish it off, I give them a single wash of Gryphon Sepia. I've had constructive critisism about the red on red before. But I like to imagine my BA are on a world similar to Baal. Red skies and a tortured dry lanscape. Hence the bases and the Red windscreens. Hope this helps. CTK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
