Hey Boyz!

Just finished this guy over the weekend and thought I'd let you all have a spy, the idea was to create from bitz, a Company Master or such like for the Angels of Vengeance:


With that in mind I wanted him to be quite powerful looking, like a miniature dreadnought and wield a mighty 2 handed hammer, at the same time I also wanted him to be wearing the signature robes of the Dark Angels but in red as I feel this best reflects the AoV iconography. This posed the question, how to make robed marine in terminator armour with fairly average greenstuffing skills?
Well I think I succeeded fairly well, without further ado I'll let you see him!







Thanks for looking!

P.S I actually took pictures throughout the conversion process If anyone's interested, to save me time linking to them individually I'd ask you to go here:
http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/index.php?autocom=gallery&req=user&user=54609&op=view_album&album=6527
and set sort by upload date, ascending, at the bottom of the page for the right chronology.

P.P.S if anyone has any questions about his creation/painting, please feel free to ask!

Love him, I'm honestly surprised that the Terminator torso doesn't look too large on the DA Vet legs. I think my only gripe is the rather frail looking Thunder Hammer he's carrying, it could be bulked up a little more. Other than that, he's an excellent model!

Very nicely done, what kit is that Thunderhammer from?

I'm working on some HammerVets and I grabbed a couple hammers from the BA Death Company kits off of bitz sites.

I know there is also a one-handed one in the Grey Knight Terminator kit and a 2-handed one in the GKSS kit.

I like it a lot. My only critique is that his legs look tiny, are they power armor legs?

The hammer is actually the psychic staff that comes from the Grey Knight terminator squad, however I exchanged the arms and hands for
the 'Terminator holding Halberd 2 handed' option, I then removed the the spikey halo around the skull head and replaced it with a green stuff hood.
The hammer head itself in the back end is a rectangularish piece of sprue, and the head itself is a stormbolter ammo box with 2 wings attached to either side.


ph34r wrote:I like it a lot. My only critique is that his legs look tiny, are they power armor legs?


Yep, they are from the Dark Angel Veteran upgrade kit, however they have been modified so that the height of them is identical to
a regular terminator (hes slightly taller than a GK terminator infact).


Cheers!
