So, I've been working on some fluff and ideas for an army I'm going to be calling "The Wrong". It will be themed around the Coheed & Cambria universe with the chapters Primarch being Coheed Kilgannon, also know as The Beast or The Monstar. This army will feature multiple units from different armies (Beastmen, Orks, IG, SM of all chapters, and even Nid and Cron [[I'll explain more on that later]] ), helping to set that tone of being "The Wrong". Seeing as my birthday just passed (got some nice stuff for it) and Christmas is right around the corner (going to have some nice stuff coming ) so the army will grow quickly.

The work on the army will be sprinkled with work on terrain as I am making my own and have my very first piece assembled (a machine shop) but it still needs to be painted. So, as I update the army and terrain I will keep you guys posted.

Peace,
LeBaron

Sounds kool, I keep watch.

Ditto.

Primarch? I think you mean chapter master.

Actually, no, I don't mean chapter master. In the tons of fluff in the 40k Verse, there are two of the twenty Primarchs that are unknown. Only being spoken of in the short story, The Lighting Tower, and in The First Heretic (Novel) but nothing is really said about them, mostly vague things. So, using this, I'll be making Coheed and Jesse Kilgannon into the lost Primarch brothers two and eleven with Cambria Kilgannon as another unique character, more likely then not a Chaos Sorceress HQ.

My chapter master will most likely be Claudio Kilgannon (though I may make The Writer instead) with champions such as Al the Killer, Ten Speed, and Ambellina. Troops will include the IRO-bots, Onstantine Priests, Red Army soldiers and much more.

Yeah, BIG project but, I'm hoping to capture the feeling. Wish me luck!

"the wrong" thats sound so right^^, will be following this.
your concept sound very diversitiv so we can expect lots of unique models. will you be converting them as well?. have you got a colorscheme in your mind?...

why do i always get so anxious when someone starts something new???

must be an addiction, coffey is sure no part in that as i drink only tea^^...

good luck and may santa be nice to you....

I will be converting quite a few models to sort of show that "multipule walks of life" look (such as the IRO-bot, Red Army, Priests, plus people from the 40k Verse that have found some sort of comfort in the ranks of The Wrong). My color scheme, as of right now, is sort of ed up. The custom parts of the army will be painted to reflect how they are portrayed in the Co&Ca Verse but those that are "converted" from WHFB and 40k (Crons, Orks, Tau, Beastmen, Squats/Dwarves) will be painted as if they had once belonged to another army but have converted and painted themselves to sort of fit into their new group; i.e. standard blue SM with black that they painted over the blue to try and fit into Chaos. I don't know how best to explain it but I think you get the idea.

Snazzy!!!

I shall be keeping an eye on your Progress my Young Heretic ^^

I look forward to seeing where this goes.

Interesting fluff, very interested to see the execution on the models. My advise....spend 30 bucks on a pin vise and drill. GW plastic clips are also amazing.

I told you I would be following this and am excited to see where this goes!

Do you think you may touch base on the "Armory wars"?

It is a great Idea and I know that is why GW left the two primarchs left unnamed for player fluff!

two thumbs up for your thoughts behind the paintscheme. like the thoughts that brought you there. its like the fugee´s^^ in 40k. you can only feel sympathy for them.

" `ere matey, got some spare for an old `fedner that got tossed around?"
"ah come on, we got a place in our ranks that is fitting like a glove man"

cool thing, vik

I was planning on getting myself the GW hobby kit (vise, drill, saw, ect.) but I'll have to see what I get for Christmas first so, yeah, we'll just have to wait and see.

Well, all of the albums from them so far tell the story of the Armory Wars but if you're talking about some of the extra fluff they put in the comics the answer will be yes. We will see all sorts of goodies from "people" like Cecil, Wilhelm Ryan and Mayo Deftinwolf to things such as the Jackhammers, "The Camper Velourium" and "Grail Arbor".

I'll even been using some of my own fluff for how they got into the 40k Verse. Remember the Black Rainbow?

Thanks, I've always liked the thought of it. When you have Chaos converts, it has to be a bit diffrent. Every time I heard the "they converted from [insert chapter here]" I couldn't help but have a stupid story in mind. Like such:

"Good day, you filth. Thank you for joining Team Chaos. BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD! Today we will be taking a trip to Chaos-Mart where you will pick up everything that is needed to look like a Chaos Space Marine. Alright, now everyone in the Land Raider. MOVE IT, YOU SCUM!"

by the way what is meant by "Co&Ca Verse"?

vik

Co&Ca Verse = Coheed & Cambria Universe

I tend to use the word "Verse" in lieu of the word "Universe". It's just something I do, probably seeded in laziness and my innate redneck ability to castrate words.

i understood the term `verse just right it was the first sylables that were unknown. and tho i know now wat it means i still am not known to Coheed & Cambria Universe
...

got some link for me or should i google that? sometimes i actually get some good results^^

vik, thanks in advance

Well, Coheed & Cambria are fictional characters from a band of the same name.

It would probably be for the best if you click here. It's a link to the Coheed & Cambria wiki that I hope helps but, if not, I'll do my best to try and explain.

Good luck and you're welcome!

aha, got a glimpse of the overall scene of the story. sound a bit after reading some vitas that you have here a superhuman team facing a brutal enemy...powers look like a mix of known heros from different parts of printed comics i read... well will be interssting to see it in molded plastic^^

wish you a the needed luck for this task^^.

vik

Sort of and sort of not with the theory of what it's about but, either way, it will be of EPICNESS!

So, as always in my life, my plans got ed up. I was not able to get to the hobby store and, therefore, don't have any of the stuff I need to work on my project.

So, nothing for the army done today. Terrain got put together, though, and I'm pleased with it. Still needs painting and some of that 40k flair but that's still in the works.

Alright, that'll be all for the night, see you guys and gals tomorrow.


EDIT: If you would like to see the terrain, check my youtube.


Peace,
LeBaron

nice terrain you´ve built there. i had just a quick view in. the machine shop look really good. like the idea with the turret made from leftover junk. been collecting odd scrap for months now. in a second vid i saw a small toy castle. we´ve got that too and i always think i should use it for terrain building... the kids dont play with it anymore...

dont worry about best laid plans, they always f....k up in the end.

Lol. The castle (a Fisher-Price something or another) was free at a yard sale, is missing pieces, and would make for some great terrain. It's going to get work done to it to give it a little more battle worn look (though the kids at the pre-school did a pretty good job of that already. ). You'll expect to see it being used soon.

i hope so, cause then i might also use it and i need yours as a reference to justify my own creation. the kids wont be amused if i tear it apart right in fornt of them^^

So, trying to decide on what to do with the Blood Machines and the special unit My Brother's Blood Machine. Here's a few WIP pics:









C&C welcome.

whoa, that hand looks like it was meant for a libby dread...
the barrels look like autocannons to me...i´m not too sure about those claws/spikes but your making chaos so i guess they will fit right in...maybe make them look like ivory...
that tankbuster iece on the left, last pic i think you dont need the optics above, but with a decent paintjob the might look cool...

by the way where are the bits from, the hand i would love to get my hand on...^^

cheers, vik

They are Gundam Pieces!

looks like it GJ so far

Cutthroatcure wrote:They are Gundam Pieces!

This /signed

Makes it look very "tau", but paint and a little GS can turn anything into chaos.

i thought so, but didnt know for sure...thanks fellas

You are right, they are Gundam parts. I've been working out of this box.


I've sort of been trying diffrent ideas for my Blood Machines and have been liking some of the combanations, others not so much. Other bitz that I'll be using are a lot of wire from an old computer.
