One of the ones I'm most proud of.

It was an AoBR Captain to start with. Changed torso, added a new tabard, dual LC, different backback, different helm and som wings for added effect

So the only AoBR parts left is the cape and shoulder pads? Nicely done.

nicely done, paintjob really stands out, but i'm curious. The only thing you didn't change from the original build was the legs, so what was the point, you could have built this guy without using the AOBR stuff right? I don't know marines, so maybe you couldn't have.

After that its a simple case of usind khemri brown then dhneb stone on the scales and blues on the gribly bits

When Warseer is back online, you should be able to see it. I'll drop a link to my plog in case it's back up before I check back here.

http://www.warseer.com/forums/showthread.php?t=210465

Fairly certain that's it, though until Warseer is back online I can't say for sure.

@ Skotter - that meganob is pretty nice looking, i like the overall dark tones to it.

@ Grimtuff - I love the Lady Malys, that is just beautiful in all ways. the rest of your stuff looks good with one exception.....

THAT DRAGSTA IS TO DIE FOR!!! i give it 4 dakka.

Edit: Grimtuff, can you pm a list of the parts you used, I'd really like to make that thing for my own army.

Discriminating Deathmark Assassin






My Parasite of Mortrex, made from a couple old Gargoyles, some spare Genestealer and Tyranid Warrior bits, and the mandibles from an ancient Hive Tyrant model.

Not the best pictures, and I still need to find something to use for a piece of ferrous metal to put between the magnets so he's leaning back just a little.




Added a few spines along the top of his tail, too, just can't see them in these pictures. Can't see the spiky extended carapace bits along his back very well either, but I think you get the idea.

Just to be clear, they're each a separate Heavy Support choice; you can have 3, you just can't have them all as one brood.

Been working on this one for a while. haven't done a great deal other than swap the weapons round and altered the posture slightly but i think it makes for a more dynamic looking figure.
