I'm starting to bulk him up slightly with gs, and clipping off some of the eldar gems..... but I'm keeping him more alien like.... fluff:

He is Gandem Opius from Altair VII, recruited by the Inquisitor after acknowledging his skill with plasma weaponry. Opius lived among the aliens of Altair VII and had logged thousands of information concerning the native tribes and Xenos. He has so far proved an excellent member of the gang, saving the Inquisitor's life on numerous occasions..

That works, fluff is the best way to explain everything, other than its my model I'll do as I damned well please.

I hate it when people do that..

"I think you should give him hair...."

"I think YOU should stop giving me suggestions, because its MY model!"

Yeah I know, particularly when you're just trying to be helpful.

Would you like to see my W.I.P psyker?

Why yes I most certainly would my good Sir.

If I dont get back to you right away its cause I had to leave work.

Here he is! The inquisitor's personal warp-seer, Torque Lamis of the Donorian Sector. W.I.P
I plan for him to be holding a book in his right hand (power-fist conversion). This could double up as a power-fist and just for the record... the book is pretty big.

How big?
Half as big as the guy or smaller?

Want me to post the picture of him with his arm on?

Psyker pics update!

Dude, your nails are a bit dirty, clean them

No, seriously, I like the thing you did with the Death Jester, real nice.

Edit: WOAH! SKULL-DUDE! =O

As much as I hate to admit it..... it's not dirt, it's green stuff.
When I spend ages toying with the stuff it's bound to happen.

Ok so,
I fixed up the psyker a little bit, but at the moment I'm a bit stuffed for fluff ideas. This guy is in the suit as the other one, and I can't pass by with the life-support system agian...
I might just give him up as a bad job to be honest...

Well guys, I'm gonna be away for a few days and will not be modelling. I will, however, be able to write some fluff...
Anyways here's what I've done:
Life support ganger primed.
Xenos plasma specialist primed.
Part-bionic kroot sniper ( drying for a loooooong time because I don't want to accidentally break him ).
Working on a scout conversion ( shotgun-scout with a SM shoulder pad, beastly backpack and catachan head ).
I have scrapped my psyker - it just wasn't working...- and am working on meltagun specialist with the same base as the psyker.


Keep and eye on this thread!!!!!

Nice work so far.

Ok, I'm back from London and I have been thinking about some fluff but now I'm gonna be busy at my Dad's house. I will be adding fluff to this thread but no pictures will be posted for a while.

Also, this is my 200th post!
That means in 4 days I have posted 200times and I'm already the top user this week! I love dakka! Ha!

For dakka to love you, quality of posts counts much more than the quantity Thankfully we know from past experience, no-one will keep up the 50 posts a day pace - either people grow up, evolve or find the next thing to overdo.

Nice to see some pics at least! The Marine would really benefit from some extra bulk around the chest armour.

Migs,

I constantly admire your posts and I am honoured for such a valuable amount of information to be posted on my thread.

Ok, cut the crap, I totally understand what you are saying and I have to admit, 50 posts a day is ridiculous however I am on my school holidays and have nothing else to do.

I sincerely hope you keep an eye on this thread.
Many thanks,
Jack.

I am going to start to write some fluff on my gang, however I will be posting it in another thread

Fluff thread is "Jackinthetank's =I=munda fluff".

Many thanks,
Jack.

I agree with Migs, the chest's need more bulk, alot more

This post is cool but it just stops?

Dude stop bringing back old threads.

I sure that if the OP has anything new to post, he certainly will.

Threadnomancy rules usually don't apply in the Painting and Modeling forums BUT we usually want the Original Poster to be the one resurrecting their own threads.

Please keep that in mind going forward!

Thanks,

Ken

My previous account was Jackinthetank.

I haven't done any work on this for 9months. Why threadromance :O

Can a mod please lock this thread.

Cheers,
