Ben Posted February 4, 2017 Author Share Posted February 4, 2017 I'm planning ahead a little here but do you think that the Stormcast can work as a mobile gun line. I'm seeing the Celestant Prime to take on the heavy work load and bring the pain where needed backed up by a full shooting army. No paladins. All judicators and the new Vanguard units. What does everyone think? Are the hard hitters required or will captain underpants coming down out of the sky be enough? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc Wilson Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 So long as Tournament scoring is solely about mission success, and if KPs continue to be not taken into account, then movement remains king. I'd say in a lot of cases paladins are taken purely because they comprise part of a funky movement formation. If that no longer becomes a requirement then yes, I definitely see SE going full Wood Elf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Posted February 4, 2017 Author Share Posted February 4, 2017 I've been working on this guy for a while. I had an hour in him this afternoon to finish the weapon options and pose. He still needs a bit of free stuff and maybe a few more trinkets stuck in but he's done enough to show off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artobans Ghost Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 This guy is fierce! That base looks like quite the effort as well. Is this a normal trooper or officer? Can't wait to see him painted ( not to put too much pressure on)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aezeal Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 why base the ground silver? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bjarni St. Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 I'm actually curious what the silver colour is @Ben, it looks so shiny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Posted February 8, 2017 Author Share Posted February 8, 2017 The base starts silver then gets Typhus Corrosion added. I started painting it separate then decided to glue him down. Its just Stormhost Silver over bare plastic! The reason the ground is silver is because they are fighting in a region on the realm of Chamon where all the terrain is metal.

I was actually looking into Horus Heresy legion heads to swap with...once I actually nail down a 2k list Wow - light infantry Stormbros! I'm going to get some more Scribor Spartan heads and convert a bunch of my Chaos warrior dudes from the starter set that I'm finding it hard to want to paint. Now we just need light infantry stats.

Artobans Ghost Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 Nice going! Stock is all sold out. Limited addition, regular addition and cards! I have a feeling this is gonna be hot! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AGPO Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 Really like the work on the conversion. One area where I think he'd be improved is swapping out the shield for a round one to match the lightly armoured aesthetic. Painting wise, plenty of scar tissue would help to show the trauma of reforging and give him a lot of character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZaelART Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 That's a good idea, he has a really cool gladiator look. The round shields of the Prosecutors could fit well with a lightly armoured and agile aesthetic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johan Mars Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 Really nice conversion @Ben ! Might need to do something similar, even convert an whole starter set of Khorne soldiers even. Have them as an lost human tribe from one of the realms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love SC so much, their background, aesthetic, everything about them is just the best. Every time I see anything about them anywhere I just can't keep myself from smiling.
