The Iron Taurans, Updated 20/10 Full AoP board


Recommended Posts

Just a small update, I have the rest of my intercessors built now with a few minor changes to grenade launchers. Instead of snipping out the middle of the rifle and the middle of a phobos bolter and sicking them together, I'm cutting the grenade launcher down on the rifle and sticking it on the bottom of a Phobos bolter which imo looks way better. C&C very welcome.

It's been a little while since I've updated, but I went away to Paris but now I'm back and I'm vowing for the ETL. I vowed 20 intercessors, 5 terminators, terminator librarian, venerable dread and Roorland (my chapter master).

 

I've wanted to get into the competitive scene for a while now and I have signed myself up to Fun'n Fluff tournament at the end of July. It's quite restrictive in what you can take and because my Intercessors have boltguns instead of bolt rifles I can't actually take them as Intercessors and have to take them as Tactical marines. My list is:

 

Captain with Power Axe and Storm Bolter

Terminator Librarian with Force Axe and Storm Bolter

Techmarine with power axe 

 

3x units of tactical marines with a plasma gun and a missile launcher

 

Redemptor Dread with all the dakka

Venerable dread with twin las

5 Terminators one 1 chainfist

 

Land speeder with 2 Heavy Bolters

 

1 Vindicator

1 Whirlwind

 

I have best part of 2 months to paint all of this :biggrin.: Diamonds are made under pressure after all

 

I've started on a terminator, slowly but surely...

The Techmarine is well done. Do the Iron Taurans ID such specialists- including Apothecaries and Librarians- by painting the left pauldron in the appropriate color, instead of their entire suit of armor? (That makes more sense, in my opinion. I doubt the Techmarine will be happy someone misidentified him as a Blood Angel, or a Librarian for an Ultramarine.)

I'm not too sure at the moment to be honest, I think I'm mostly just winging it. For the Librarian armour I'll probably paint the majority blue but then have the lower legs black and one arm white.

 

I am loving the conversions going on here. That ancient suit of Power armour just looks absolutely brutal on the techmarine.

Also really gnarly axe.

 

 

The terminator looks more dynamic than anything in tda I could ever crank out

 

Thanks man! I can't take credit for the modelling as it's a forge father from Forgeworld but I can take credit for the painting :biggrin.: He's been sat on my desk for ages waiting to be painted

I've actually managed to get quite a lot of colour done on this guy for a black and white colour scheme. C&C welcome, I think he's pretty much done, just some tidy ups and finishing the base.

Looks real good! Also I think you definitely achieved the look of a brutal looking sword :wink:

All in all I think he looks like a great balance of regal and vicious. 

 

Thanks Kor!

 

The CAPT looks like Billy Sole (Sonny Landham), in Predator. Was this intentional?

 

Haha, thanks Bjorn. It wasn't intentional but I can kind of see a similarity between them.

This is excellent work.
I notice there's no blood beneath the skull and spine in the Terminator's power fist. Did he just perform Sub-Zero's fatality (see the original Mortal Kombat) on a Necron, or is he manhandling a servo-skull that was built with an attached spine? Edited by Bjorn Firewalker

Loving the additions. I never knew I needed Power Cleavers in my life prior to seeing that Captain. What is that bit from?

 

Keep up the great work!

It's from Forge World's 30k Khârn. He has Gorechild and the Power Cleaver as weapon options.

 

 

Gederas is right, it's from the 30k Khârn kit, make him look brutal even though there isn't much of a pose :biggrin.:
