<![CDATA[Latest posts for the thread "Imperial knight warden (counts as psyfleman dread)"]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/8.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net Imperial knight warden (counts as psyfleman dread) ffg's RPGs or specialist games. The mechanicum contingent will include several tech priests, a good many servitude and a handful of knights. I feel like I have a ton of leeway when it comes to modeling knights as they haven't received much modeling attention outside of some VERY old epic models and even then they were shown as being incredibly divergent in aesthetic and function. I generally only play in a very relaxed environment so modeling issues like single barrels are easily

This model started out life as a robogear T. rex, but got chopped up and put back together to be a bit more grim and dark. I hoped that it would capture some of the ungainly engineering of the old epic models but also have more of a modern aesthetic. It still needs a lot of detail work, and I think drilling the barrels will make a huge difference. C&C would be greatly appreciated.

I have some robogear stuff I've been meaning to convert into something as well. Hmmm...]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/544191/5914109.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/544191/5914109.page GMT Imperial knight warden (counts as psyfleman dread)

I'd clean up the rim of the base. Either make it the lighter colour all around or make it black to match your other bases.

The base is actually just a piece of balsa wood I cut to fit so I plan on rebasing it soon when I have the chance.

Looks like a Warzone plastic infantry guy with a different head-- maybe a space marine scout head and a storm bolter created from two bolters.


Sir, I must commend your very astute eye for models.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/544191/5921314.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/544191/5921314.page GMT Imperial knight warden (counts as psyfleman dread) http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/544191/5921545.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/544191/5921545.page GMT Imperial knight warden (counts as psyfleman dread)

I really like how the warzone guy looks without their big bulky back packs. I might have to build some like that.


One issue with this is that the prince august castings are done in a VERY hard plastic. Coupled with the weird angle needed because of the shoulder pads filing the really wide backpack tab off of the models torso is a real pain. I'm in the middle of doing it to 40 of them so it can be frustrating. I've also taken the picklehaub's off of the helmets to make them look less prussian. You can see the other similar models I've done so far here.

They're great for 50 cents each though. And they have nice deep recesses and paint up nice and fast.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/544191/5925546.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/544191/5925546.page GMT
