been trying to get back to my 54mm stuff but my 40k guard need finishing first. in order to feed the inquisitor bug i am doing a few characters for my guard that can double as inq models

this inquisitory/acolytey guy has been a modelling itch i have had for a few years, was originally going to make him in 54mm but the base model is so close to what i am aiming for i broke down and started cutting him. at least he can be shoe horned into my guard army somewhere



obviously the blue tac isnt a permanent addition and his left arm is very long at the moment but what i am after here is some opinions on what he should be holding in his left hand, what i originally had in mind was a flare stick but am now considering a shutter lantern on a chain?
very loosley based on this guy

Kallidor

Like you say that is uncannily similar, and a very effective conversion. Great stuff.

cheers :)
while cleaning up a valkyrie the other day a delivery of bits finally turned up after i had nearly written them off, the final parts i needed to begin some necromunda enforcers/carapace vets/scions/inquisitor npcs, just grabbed the time to try out the concept and am after opinions before i dive in



i seem to have grabbed a command torso by mistake, probably going with regular cadian torsos, anyway, what do you think?

Radu Lykan


started blocking in some colours on one of my enforcers


was a bit torn between a metalic gun or the classic red, red won out for the trial run and i think i will stick with it, hoping to get this guy finished for ammobunkers omam

Radu Lykan

and arbites genericfilmstarpoliceofficername is done :)


that sorts omam 7, now to decide whats happening for month 8
props to VisOne and mousemuffins on wargamer au for providing a hazard stripe base template, painting/weathering that was fun

Gregor Eisenhorn

Really liking the Arbites/enforcer. Very Judge Dredd esq

cheers

started work on some grenadier veterans for my guard, some of them will double as necromunda hired guns and treble as inquisitorial henchmen


this guy is the start of a bounty hunter for necromunda, he will get a bolter in his left hand, bounty hunters have so many weapons! the good thing is i managed to squeeze them all on, he has a shotgun and chainsword in scabbard on his back.
the bolter means he will probably be the grenadier sergeant and he slots in nicely as a henchman for an inquisitor with a military background. all the bolt weapons mean he is a bit problematic for inquisitor though :(



this guy will be scum for necromunda, he is magnetised to receive a hand flamer and a sword/big knife, others in the squad will be dual wielding pistols so this guy got something different, is it too big for a knife?
he has a shotgun on his back to qualify for the grenadier squad and i dont think he will be too tooled up for inquisitor, i can always swap out the hand flamer if need be

had some trouble with pics, fully armed pics with heads should follow later
edit- figured i would spray them ready for painting due to the sun finally pointing back to earth, taking pictures of black primered models doesnt seem to work but heres what i got





thanks for looking? :)

Radu Lykan

got these two done, pictures came out sort of ok this time, also tried nuln oil out again after the rage inducing problems last time  i used it on guardsmen it seems to have come out ok?










Radu Lykan

omam done again, went for the halloween undead kudos
zombified aka undead servitor :)

Radu Lykan

got the enforcer done for januarys omam :)


group shot so far


currently trying to decide on a heavy/special weapon, what do people think?

seaglen

Absolutely LOVE those enforcers!

such a great combination of parts I may have to steal.
what marine kit is the eagle pauldron from?


Radu Lykan

shoulder pad is from the stern guard kit

started on an arch magos type bloke, this guy is going to be an npc for inq28, a counts as pitfighter gang leader, an hq from the 30k mechanicum list and probably just a tech priest for 40k.
what i am after on this guy is advice on the servo arms, 3 sections or 4? have included a pic of where his axe will roughly be, does 3 sections look too short to come around the axe? does 4 look too gangly?




while i was fiddling around with the zinge servo arms i noticed some funky little weapons that came with it and as has been suggested i had a quick go at a concept for a webber for my arbites (going to magnetise both specialists so dont worry anybody who suggested something else) my i phone wouldnt focus on the details of the spouts but if you own the zinge arms then you know what they look like, if you dont own them then why not? they are great, anyway..



also a size comparison with the scout shotgun

any suggestions on something better or bits to add/trim?

on ammobunkers inq28 section it was suggested that we all try to make a model based on a film character but 40ked up a bit by the end of march, well, i had the bits :) rough test fit so far, would have got more done but sliced my index finger with a silly slip so no more modelling today :(


hoping to incorporate this almost sort of in a dark room at twenty paces bane look alike into by bethesdans/delaque gang

Radu Lykan

had a job interview this morning and so i took some time out in the garage to de-stress. instead of painting bane like a good boy, i started a kitbashing frenzy :) after that i got the call to say i got the job, which was nice :)
most of these are based on previous ideas i had for 54mm inquisitors
as you can see by the amount of blue tac these are very early wip, after some input, if any are crap i would like to know now before i invest any real time on them


first thing i did was chop up some forgeworld stuff :O


This guy needs some input on the stake, should i trim the top curved spikes off? am also considering magnetising the weapons to be swappable with two desert eagle style stub pistols


with the head from lok i quickly boshed this guy out,


obviously the bottom of the coat needs attaching to the top with green stuff. what i am after here is should i go with the empty hand(will get a psychic warp fireball added) or twin swords?

this guy will be getting a magnetised backpack fuel tank with pipes connecting to the skull mace which will have flames sculpted on, magnetisation is so he can double as a magister for mordheim with the flames being magic rather than techno based


am not sure the legs work? i see him running forward chanting from the book but does that come accross or does he just look like he is falling over?

lady flamberge here is going to be a house agent for an escher gang at some point but she will also be part of somebodys retinue as a noble woman who's family was disgraced and shipped off to be executed in the pitfights, against all odds she survived and made a name for herself as a gladiator.


does this pose work or does she need more movement?

what's cooler than a dbsosg? two dbsosg's :)
this guy's name is Hannikel, he was supposed to be based on the 54mm slick devlan model but i couldnt find the right hooded head head. a joint order with masterbuilder sorted that and with a bit of scraping here he is.


need to finish off the greenstuffing but the general pose is done, does it look ok?


how about the knife one?

when i said i didnt do any work on bane it was sort of true,no work was done on movie bane. Comic bane however.....


size comparison with movie bane

i know hes a bit crazy big but am thinking hes the bastard son of the lord of house goliath for necromunda where he has undergone some extreme gene enhancement, inq28 he will be a warrior gifted by khorne with daemonic strength, he might be strakken in a traitor guard list if i ever get that far :)

and finally a quick test for an escher ganger/slaaneshi cultist,


too dark eldary?

cheers for any feedback

Radu Lykan

(still early blu tac wip's i'm afraid)
this first guy is based on one of my first inquisitor ideas, Inquisitor Mordax. his appearance came later when i played the matrix online mmorpg
Mordax was mentored by a fire and brimstone inquisitor lord who traveled around with a regiment of storm troopers belligerently kicking the crap out of any wrong doers. too many times mordax saw the instigators of evil flee at such overt military force coming their way leaving duped fools to fight and die in their place. so now he is an inquisitor in his own right most of the time he shies away from all the obvious trappings of his powerful position, frequently operating undercover with nothing more fancy than an autopistol or shock maul to mark him out from the crowd of bounty hunters and hired thugs


the head i thought would work here didnt and so he's headless for now :(

Mordax doesnt always operate from the shadows and understands that when leading any force of men an inspirational leader can bolster morale and so when entering any front line battlefield he goes clad in the full regalia of a powerful inquisitor lord, power armour, force hammer and bolt pistol etc


yep, he wears the helm of Saint SeJANUS in all its two faced omniview (360 degree )auto senses glory
am after ideas for something funky in the way of boltpistols here as the one he has is a bit boring
also any ideas for de-marining him a bit more?


this next guy is known as the lion of terra, the mighty hero who has spawned a number of acolytes turned inquisitors including mordax and who may or may not be dead in the current timeline, been wanting to make this guy since i saw the tyrant of badabs claw, not sure on the shotgun but wanted something that looked brutal enough for the braced firing pose, any other ideas?




any help regarding the issues above is greatly appreciated
thanks for looking

Aurelius

The double side head is super creepy - the Necromunger (spelling?) from Chronicles of Riddick immediately springs to mind!
De-marining him could involve squaring off the boots, so that they are less obviously space marine?

I like the shotgun, crazy over the top armour + clunky simple weapon really adds character for me.
