Ciler Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 The photos are really dark, it's quite difficult to make out the details. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

airinhere Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 Prior to the recent ETL I was nearing completion on a series of DeathWatch teams and command section.  Now that the ETL is ending, I am looking to return to these warriors and apply some finishing touches.  Watch Captain, Librarian and Techmarine are ready for shading and highlinght colors.  I tried inking the librarians banner, but the results were poor.  http://i1065.photobucket.com/albums/u395/aaron_hunt3/Deathwatch%20009_zpso74el1vy.jpg  Tactical team with a Multi Melta heavy weapon.  A Storm Shield provides cover if these brothers recieve direct fire. http://i1065.photobucket.com/albums/u395/aaron_hunt3/cd42bd9a-c991-44a4-855d-332d646d1a8b_zps3od5ma7q.jpg  A second tactical team with Multi Melta.  http://i1065.photobucket.com/albums/u395/aaron_hunt3/Deathwatch%20004_zps1ts2qruw.jpg  Close combat team with a mixture of Thunder Hammers and Power fists.  http://i1065.photobucket.com/albums/u395/aaron_hunt3/Deathwatch%20005_zpsy6wdpwto.jpg  Chaplain leading a team of Jump pack troops armed with a mix of close combat and ranged weapons.   http://i1065.photobucket.com/albums/u395/aaron_hunt3/Deathwatch%20006_zpskt7w6tob.jpg  I am excited for all the new Deathwatch material being released.  The new sprues available look great and I want to use the more detailed shoulder pads to indicate team leaders and venerated commanders.  I also ordered a set of Terminator shoulderpads from Pop goes the Monkey on shapeways.  So much Deathwatch goodness!   I also hope the mods here setup a Deathwatch subforum soon.  That would make me very happy.

BadOmen Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 One half of my ETL V First Vow.  A 5-man Kill Team.  Consisting of a Novamarine, Death Eagle, Hawk Lord, Mortifactor and Storm Warden.     http://i1208.photobucket.com/albums/cc370/LGF84/20160718_025512_zpsc2ahz5ub.jpg  http://i1208.photobucket.com/albums/cc370/LGF84/20160718_025634_zps6uzrbpbq.jpg  http://i1208.photobucket.com/albums/cc370/LGF84/20160718_025752_001_zpsutpsjryd.jpg    Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Sigmund Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 Some inspiring examples of Deathwatch here!  Since it was a nice day yesterday, I thought I'd grab my camera and take a few photos of my DW.  I came up with these well before I knew about the recent DW releases (although I have since added the Chaplain from DW:Overkill), just intending to use them as an allied marine detachment for my main chapter.  The fluff for them is that they are all Blackshields assigned to a mysterious remote Watch Station at the behest of a sinister Ordo Xenos Inquisitor:  http://i1160.photobucket.com/albums/q491/MaxSigmund/Space%20Marines/100_5755_zpsd7qrgzcm.jpg  http://i1160.photobucket.com/albums/q491/MaxSigmund/Space%20Marines/100_5757_zpsazbf37cf.jpg  http://i1160.photobucket.com/albums/q491/MaxSigmund/Space%20Marines/100_5754_zpsatuv1xmp.jpg  http://i1160.photobucket.com/albums/q491/MaxSigmund/Space%20Marines/100_5750_zpsy6mjsqyn.jpg  http://i1160.photobucket.com/albums/q491/MaxSigmund/Space%20Marines/100_5786_zpsa546dtxk.jpg  ...and here's the WIP librarian from DW:O, with some minor conversion work:  http://i1160.photobucket.com/albums/q491/MaxSigmund/Space%20Marines/100_5766_zps60hpaorf.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nomus Sardauk Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 @Max Sigmund: Pardon me brother, but how hard was it to fit that helmeted head on the Overkill Librarian? I've been considering a similiar conversion myself but don't want to start hacking out the bare head only to find my replacement won't fit, ya'know?

I've been considering a similiar conversion myself but don't want to start hacking out the bare head only to find my replacement won't fit, ya'know?  @SanguiniusReborn: It was a little tricky, I had to carve off the base of the helmet, particularly around the back and the raised bits on the side (I think you can see on the photo).  I'm reasonably happy with how it looks, although he seems to have a rather short neck.  Best approach would be to shave a helmet to fit then use putty to repair any visible damage.  Hope that helps!

Â Hope that helps! Â This is something I did on my DW:OK Librarian as well, although I shaved the vent/crest off the top so it would sit a little higher from the chest. Needed to trim off a fair bit from the back and the bits on the sides, as Max mentioned. All in all it's straightforward, just a little fiddly.

Nomus Sardauk Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 My thanks for the advice brothers, I'm wondering now if I could potentially heat up the hood and gently bend it up a bit to give the helmeted head more room, does anybody have experience with this method?

MagicMan Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 Some great looking DW in this thread!!

MagicMan Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 The beard on that Scar... Hah, you like it? Or too Wolfy? I thought it made a decent Scar head. And figured a Scar would be a good squad leader, with all the ritual hunts they perform against enemies of the Imperium. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackrat Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 I decided to paint this little guy as Deathwatch. Images are rather grainy, thanks to my ipad, but the mini turned out quite nice: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
