Interesting design. Are the circles infront of the wings for a specific type of gun or are they for missiles?

I like that the side profile looks like a big old Exorsist.

What kind of weapon load-out is it going to have? I feel the super heavy should really milk the 'holy trinity' of bolter, flamer, melta.

The circles are the missile tubes as in a front angle.

I have seen too my superheavys for sisters to being in the style of the Exorcist. However, I decided to use that as part. The front is in the immolator, the back Exorcist.

I am throwing the holy trinity out and making it the “what the quad” weapons; Bolter, flamer, melta, and rockets. The front will be armed with melta weapon; the three-immolator sisters will be armed with flames. The back will be armed with rockets and the side guns will be bolters. OH THE HUMANITY!!!

You all must remember that my next conversion is the flyer. The superheavy diagram was what you all can say "chum in the water".

I am waiting on the Valkyie to start the flyer conversion. But I will build in but not paint it until my immolators are complete.

Can I suggest "For the love of quad" as a more suitable name for the weapon loadout?

Also "chum in the water"...what's that about?

I like that name for the weapon load out, I will use it

For the other phrase "chum in the water", its a baiting technique for sharks. I am using the diagram as to peak your interest and curiousity to want to see more, in so it am baiting the water to interest you all more.

Ah I see. We'll it's worked atleast, as I am interested to see how it'll turn out.

Here in the uk 'chum' is a informal word for friend, hence my confusion. Needless to say we don't do a lot of shark fishing here.

my apologies then, I must remember that there maybe sometimes gaps in communication due to different regions or countries. I will make sure to explain things a little better to avoid confusion

Haha never heard anyone misinterperate chum but glad i have now!

Oh and the bait is working!

i really like your paint scheme! i had thought about kitbashing a dread knight.. great minds etc etc.

Fliers and superheavy anyone ?

Neither are complete.... yet.

Well, this is a lot more than i expected, you have been a busy bee! Is the flier not also super heavy?!?

Very impressive work, love the position of that bolter thing above the cockpit of the flier.

Yeah I was pretty bored and I wanted to catch up on some stuff this weekend. I do want to mention that the flyer is not complete yet. I run out of materials that I needed. It looks to Peacemeal, Currently looks to Orcish. I need more bits To bring it together correctly.

You know what? looking at it, the flier is a superheavy, oops!

You killed two birds with one stone. Glad to see both though, will look good with that dread knight

I would like to thank you all for your patience in this project. I has been slow do to my schooling, but I will make sure that all of you, the subscribers, are entertained with the models and paint job that the see

Wow. I've not been on dakka for like a week and I return and find this waiting for me. (Goddamn RL getting in the way).

Perhaps the the devine hand of the emperor promted me to return...

Anyway, both are looking great. Can't wait to see them finished.

D

WoW.. take off for a few and your kitbashing like crazy. I love the superheavy! Very approprate for a SoB army

Evening though my project is breast cancer awareness, I believe I still need to show some love for the month of October for is being Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

Here is a piece of concept art for you all to enjoy.

PS I know my diagrams always suck but I was only really ever good drawing people. Enjoy and tell me what you all think of the Art.

Awesome. I like how you've incorporated the ribbon.

The purity seal looks great aswell.

D

truth be told, the seal is a real fleur-de-lis and pink wax set that I purchase.

The concept art I creating will I was away for the weekend at my GF place. I decided that I will do another later on depending how this one turns out. I also am deciding to give them away at the end of my project. maybe

Very cool minis. I really love the pink!
The flier is very cool. I think the props are a little... large, or maybe just a bit off looking compared to the rest of the mini. Not sure how to change that.

Keep it up.

This piece of concept art is of a sculpt that I plan to do for the throne that sits on the middle of the super heavy tank. The throne I must thank again to Whalemusic360. Yes a Sister of Silence, a Pariah is captain of the emperor boomstick… The name will change… later

dude that flyer and super heavy are so cool!

The propellors need to be large. Model wise that look huge but I used real helochoppers size to scale ratios to choose the size. The chopper itself it a super heavy drop ship. The propellors would be thick and long for the wieght it is carrying. These piece are not for game so I am not worried about being shot down do to size lol

I wanted to keep people informed of where I am at with the project. Due to school, my modeling and painting are backed up. I am at the last week of my speed course, the medical terminology course, as I am taking the final next Monday or Tuesday. That being said, I will have more time for my models since I will only have to worry about one course.

Now people have been noticing that I have been placing concept art that I have been doing for the blog. I am going to have a little fun with this as I am going to, within the next week and a half or so, the concept art of the fourth conversion for the road to armies on parade.

Please do not misunderstand my intent on building this fourth conversion without finishing the super chopper, but creating for me is the easy part, painting is hard. I have the funds to by what I to finish the chopper, next week I will by it. It just so happens what I need to finish the chopper is what I need to start conversion 4 and 5. Yes, I am that evil with conversion

Now for all the new subscribers, I welcome you all and hope to hear your insight on or about the project. Please check out the prior pages to see the evolvement of the project.

For all of the regulars, that you for sticking with me this long and I hope to be able to surprise you guys and girls more future parts. Please do not forget to comments, question, or say your opinions, all are valuable to me for the reinforcement of this goal…. To try to take over the world…. I me … ugh cough!

Update-

I wanted to let everyone know that I have been working on the immolators during this week. I will have the progressing pictures up something later.

I was backed up with two problems, first was school, and second was pink paint... Do you know how hard it is to find pink paint in the correct shade? Very!

Haha shame about the paint situation but thank you for working through the problems to bring us the modelling goodness!

Slightly off topic in one respect, but what do you think of the new GW paints (if you've used any), from the above post I gather the pink is no good for your usage, but wondered what you thought of them generally.

Cheers

Do not worry, it is not off topic as you think.

I do use that GW painting line prior to the new incarnate if the series. Whenever I run out of the GW series paint that I have I will first check if GW still uses a variant of the paint, if not I will find the Reaper or Game Painter series instead.

The problem that I find in the new GW painting line is that it is not they are not making this for the advance or specialty painters anymore. Gamesworkshop is marketing their paint line to two types of people, tournament gamers and new people in the hobby. Both types have the have one thing in common. Here is that fastest way to paint the majority of the models in the least amount of time. It is clear in their containers. Base, layering, Dry, Wash, Glaze. For someone like me that is a joke but for someone who is new to the hobby, this is the best thing since sliced bread.

I like to mix my paints to find the shades that I prefer. I have GW paints but they are slowly being drain away.

Interesting. Thanks for the reply, I'm definitely on board with what you're saying about the new lines seemingly being aimed at those who want to paint to a decent standard quickly (I mean who wouldn't want that!), currently I'm still on using old GW paints, pretty much exclusively, but I'd been considering trying some other companies before GW did the re-vamp, I just don't know who to turn to Vallejo always seem to have positive feedback. Especially as they use dropper bottles and I want to get more use out of my airbrush rather than for laying down the base coat and filling an airbrush from GW paint bottles is a nightmare. I'm yet to use any of the new GW paints, I'm pretty interested to see what their dry brushing paint is like...not that I do a great deal of dry brushing other than on bases, but still, I'm also curious for those textured painted for basing.

I think I'll predominantly uses GW paints for the foreseeable future, my painting isn't to an especially high standard, so I don't mind them making it easy for me, but I think I'll dip my toe in the 3rd party products when I need to replace something.

I suggest the Reaper Master series if you want a third party option. I found that the new formula that they use in there paint are, in my opinion, superior now to GWs new paints.
