Chickenleg's Horus Heresy Log - Maraviglia Horror 23/11/2017

[Chickenleg]

So I went back to it and made some changes based on feedback!

I followed the FW scheme of blue side plates and buckle to bring some color to the area.

 

Additional chipping was applied to the blue parts.

 

More blood!

 

 

Alpha Legion Upgrade

 

Another Veteran is finished, bringing some color to the squad with a plasma gun.

 

 

 

C & C welcome.

Loving it! I may be copying this soon as I am going to make a chosen plasma gun unit for infiltrating.

The blue you have created for your alpha legion is how I have always pictured them. Awesome work can't wait to see a group shot of all the vets together.

[Chickenleg]

So I picked up Echoes Of Revelation to listen and damn! The Soul, Severed is such an awesome pool of inspiration for the Emperor's Children. Even tho it lasts less than 30mins it actually moves the story forward and gives juicy information on the corrupted third legion.

 

I always hated Eidolon when he was alive but yeah, his Soul Severed incarnation is pure badass.

 

Check this guy out next to Eidolon tho, Iron Maiden-esque, 4 eyed Kakophoni? What?

 

 

 

Needless to say, I had to make this guy.

 

That's my third project! Eidolon's Chosen!

 

Mid Heresy Emperor's Children give a lot of room for cool conversions thanks to Fabius and I'll be focusing more on that aspect. The Emperor's work defiled.

 

I followed the cover scheme with the toxic colors, finally used that Kakophoni pink from FW!

Thanks! Go for it bro!

Thanks! I will take a group shot when I finish the squad! Thats the rule!

[Lord Commander Eidolon]

Awesome work there dude! He does look like an old skool rocker! Great work on the skin tone and making that head look good!!

 

Really much check out that audio drama!!

[hushrong]

Awesome work on the Kakophoni! You nailed it, the artwork to miniature!

 

Does that short story explain why Eidolon is melting in that same picture?

[Kizzdougs]

That's fantastic, bro! Really nice work on the Kakophoni :tu:

[Chickenleg]

I made another Kakophoni head today, extended his gas mask with a grill and turned it into a sonic snout of sorts.

 

Sonic shrieker?

Thanks, the head is from the Space Wolves range for those wondering.

 

The skin is on the purple side to match the art. Next one will probably be pale white, all those poison injections can mess up the skin!

 

 

Awesome work on the Kakophoni! You nailed it, the artwork to miniature!

 

Does that short story explain why Eidolon is melting in that same picture?

Thanks! Yeah, there is an explanation.

Eidolon's forces are showered with toxic chems.

 

 

That's fantastic, bro! Really nice work on the Kakophoni

Thanks! The inspiration is on fire right now! I must make more! MORE!

 

Slaves... SLAVES!

 

 

C & C welcome.

[Chickenleg]

Alpha Legion reinforcements!

 

The squad is nearing completion.

 

 

 

 

 

 

EC upgrade, double larynx for maximum volume!

 

 

The head is from the old mutation sprue from WHFB, added amplifiers taken from the original Kakophoni head plus cabling!

 

Modeling the third legion was never this fun!

 

C & C welcome.

[Chickenleg]

Emperor's Children reinforcements!

 

 

 

Back view, vestigial arm poping out.

 

Side view

 

 

C & C welcome.

 

[Sgt. Blank]

Wow! The Kakaphoni look suitably warped. That's the best use and paint job I've ever see for that old mutant head

[Kizzdougs]

Fantastic work, dude! :tu:

[Markus_]

Fantastic work! The Kakophoni especially look very true to the artwork. Looking forward to what you come up with next. :)

[Hrolf the Cunning]

Amazing stuff man!

[hushrong]

Damn that Kakophoni freaks me out. Has a real The Thing vibe that's unsettling. Perfect but so unsettling.
