I like the guy on the right alot. Looks like he means business. Good work on the weapon teams so far.

got it now^^
yeah i just loved the head... so much character and he even looks a bit anoyed, like : "what? your wounded...again??? you know some of you gueardsmen know that i am a busy man and die on the spot instead of coming to me all wounded and making a fuss of them selves to me...cheesh...guardsmen these days...give me 100 SM instead of 10000 guardsmen... at least that would be less work for me..."

thx perkustin... yeah i thought i need lots more of really aiming vets... after all they are called vets for being still alive...so this means in short they had to shoot the way to actually get some of their enemies... instead of being just meatshields^^ and whoever shot a gun in his life will know that shooting from the hip is wont cut the thing....

Viktor von Domm wrote:and whoever shot a gun in his life will know that shooting from the hip is wont cut the thing....

unless it's a shotgun or minigun...
but yeah- "You've got ANOTHER wart? Here, let me kiss it better...with my axe!"

i bet a shotgun isn´t that easy to get shooting and actually hitting the "aimed" (for lack of a better word...) target...
and a minigun unless your a SM is totally out of the question... the gatling minigun they use in the first predator movie is just ridiculous to get a decent hit... it is the same effectiviness as a nuke... general area to hit and after all is devasted you say: "we won"... for a clear and clean shotr alwas aim...better lay down on the ground and have a nice firm threepoint hold...then your able to actually hit the aimed target... and not by sheer luck...


a good swing with an axe is another thing so... but if you never swung one you might actually cut off you own legs^^ rather then anything infron of ye^^ and if you dont hit anything in the first swing then your bound to have lots of fun after that failed attempt...

-unless it's a super-light axe...
-with the amount of shots the big miniguns dish out, you don't need to aim. That is, until it jams...
-assault cannon=minigun?

i guess the assault gun is somewhat the real world counterpart... by the way maxmini.eu does miniguns...
http://www.maxmini.eu/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=12&products_id=123

they look really good... maybe one day i will consider buying some...would probably look good for catachans in full camo like in the predator movie^^

hell yeah, there´s never a super heavy axe when needed...but then again if the axe is very light weight where do you get the killing amount of energy to slash and maim? you build up energy with the first swing and release this in the crushing swing... if the axe is to light then you wont get that hard impact you need... swords are in my opinion easier to handle in some parts... long blade vs small but heavy blade... weight with an axe is your friend here^^ swords can be non heavy as their bladeedge does the cutting...

hmm...good point...
but we can all agree that the best kind of blade is a katana. strong, lightweight and they look awesome.

no way... wanna know what blade is best? i tell ye...

turn around and the nonglittering edge thats slithering through your now turned throat is^^...i was right behind ye biding my time and then a quick slash of steel against unprotected flesh...quick, noiseless and better than anything else... in killing there is no glory or decency just someone willing and doing a dirty deed thats needed doing...

EEK!
Vik has turned into a cutthroat!
RUNNAWAY!!

not turned... was and always will be^^

*guuulp*
Will be more careful what I say from now on...
and apologise profusely for any previous misdemeanors!

*nods*



































nice by the way to have you back on this thread^^

yep!
ya wanna know what blade's best?
a breadknife...just ask that panini...and my thumb...^^

lol...:

"one more word and i bleed ya to death...with me ain blood...ya hear me?"

Cheers Vik

Could change with all this talk of blood-letting.
I hate the sight of blood...

I'll be watching you, vik...always watching...^^

ha, i think i know this line^^

well one things fer sure here i wont do any weapons with leftover blood... never liked that... after all when your done with your victim you can clean the balde with its clothes^^

what if his clothes are covered in blood?
and what if the killer doesn't have time to wipe his blade clean?
what if the killer's ork or chaos, where they don't bother?

hmmm chaos is a tricky one... one day this could take me fancy^^... messy orks... blundgeon one to death? nawww... their builts look stunning but i am not for the green hides...

and since i cut from behind the back the throat frontside i think the back will be left pretty clean.... after all i dont want to ruin my all spruced up tuxedo....

so you're a tux-wearing cutthroat? this HAS to have a model...now...
jack the ripper maybe?

You need one of these chaps to also provide a blade cleaning service.
Sharpens and shines for a cleaner kill.

hey that ain't a bad tagline!
I should be advertising!

could be that kind of kidney yeah^^

I like the idea of a blade sharpener as a piece...no rules of course...purely decorative...maybe have one on the airship?
with a suitable old-man head?

Was thinking the same for my Necro gang
Even the customer has the right sort of clothes!

Vik- You have to make this thing.
You have to put it on the airship.
You have to either give him an old-guy head or a classic "oliver"-style cockney flat-cap urchin head.

think this would look cool too...there will be definatly some psare charcters on the airship for athosphere... like deckscrubbing ones and such stuff... the sharpener is a cool and i think very original idea...and lots of scratchbuild oportunities...best thing would be to get a child or mybe even a hobbit body to use it....hmmm

cool idea mates... goes to show when lots of minds work in unison^^

or better still what about a goblin/gretchkin to use as a oliver here? could GS the hair after that... got some old space crusade gobos i could use as base to built him up...

Blimey
first Vik reveals he is a cut throat, now we find he is a cut purse too.

Those poor waifs of yours Vik out in all weathers picking pockets for Fagin von Domm

Lol The Gretchin sounds like it might work well.

i could do the whole decking crew with them got quite a bit of them...

well at least you have to admit that using urchin kids for that job is a well tested methode...

as i´ve read by a favorite author of mine...:

You did something because it had always been done, and the explanation was "but we've always done it this way." A million dead people can't have been wrong, can they?
