    I dig the idea of a custom marine sniper.

    If you're willing to do conversion work, I think that these make good base models:

    Looks even less imperial than the other one. I do like the aesthetic though.

    I actually think the second one looks very "Assassin"-y. I never thought an Imperial assassin would walk around with "ASSASSIN" tattooed across his face. These are dudes infiltrating planets populated by billions, usually corrupted or fighting against imperial rule. Dude should be wearing normal, functional, clothes. Not a body sock and silver skulls on his nipples.

    Right, except in the situation of all out warfare which most of the 40k tabletop game deals with. This is battle time!

    Too much logic for 40k broheim.

    What about a filed down Dark Eldar with a Necron skull with the lower half of the jaw trimmed down to look more sleek and angular? Give it a cloak and a hood and a rifle and you'd be golden.

  • NealnealNealneal Registered User regular
    What about Telion with an elongated barrel? I've got an idea that the Vindicaire guy isn't so much a Vindicaire Cult assassin as he is a battle-hardened, badass Space Marine who has perfected his marksmanship to the point that he is the equal of the greatest assassins in the Imperium. Especialy considering that the Deathwatch already hands out special ammo/gear to their dudes.

    Of course, this is just a bunch of pre-work musing, so it may not make a lot of sense.

    I really think a scout sniper tricked out would look the best. With a black & dark cloth paint scheme he would look rad as fuck.

    Also a marine with a GS cloak and a sniper rifle or converted stalker pattern bolter would be tits.

    Fluffwise, a Vindicare makes plenty of sense because Deathwatch teams are usually led by Inquisitors (Such as ours).

    If we go with a modified space marine, I was thinking of using Telion with some modifications. Namely, larger rifle, DW shoulderpad, etc. Or could go with a standard scout marine and modify him fairly heavily.

    Telion seems like a great basis, though I think we'd need to replace his head or heavily augment it.

  • DayspringDayspring the Phoenician Registered User regular
    I'm under the impression his head is a separate piece so that would be pretty easy

    I believe his head and gun are separate

    The following people are amazing and I love them: Wildcat, Timspork, Kias, Denada, susan, Sharp101, [GHSC]Ryctor, Matev, Matrias, ItBurns, Slapnuts, Dayspring, see317, and the unknown poster that sent me a box of Death Company! <3 If you get them as Santees you should buy them amazing things!
  • TraceofToxinTraceofToxin King Nothing Registered User regular
    Why would we want to augment his head? Make him less Telion-y?

    How about one of the scout heads with the NVGs?

    I'm going to mail you a marine with a bunch of GS dongs all over him.

    I thought @Dayspring already had an Emperor's Children army?

    Hah.

    So I picked up Hector Rex and the Ven Dread on Ebay. Need to get arms for the dread still. Swapping to Asscannon and autocannon.

    I think this is a good one to use.

    Nice, @SJ. Just needs some skulls, but otherwise that's a great model.

    Any particular image hosting sites you're able to see images from?

    e: or did you mean the website?

    SJ on
  • TraceofToxinTraceofToxin King Nothing Registered User regular
    Neither the pic or the website. I can see blogspot pages and dakkadakka.

    I can always check it when I get off work in 7 hours too.

    You do that you fat piece of shit. And then do a couple laps around the block.

    The blocks here are pretty tiny. Plus we're not allowed to run with headphones in anymore, so fuck that nonsense.

    I'll just eat.

    Wow, that Infinity model is fucking awesome. I want that one.

    That's it.

    That's the one.

    They made this rule on the base where I work. That's probably why I seldom see people jogging on base anymore.

    Alright gents, pick out our bases. I'm already putting in an order with them for my DE and if I combine both orders it'll get me free shipping.

    I'm voting for Tech-Deck or Trench Boards.

  • valhalla130valhalla130 13 Dark Shield Perceives the GodsRegistered User regular
    I vote for something flat because I'm trying to use the urban rubble bases right now, and I'm going to have to sand out a flat place to make these feet stick to the base.

    I vote Tech-Deck or Omega Prime (it looks Tau-y and makes me think our mans are invading some silly blue bastards).

  • TraceofToxinTraceofToxin King Nothing Registered User regular
    2 tech deck
    1 trench board
    1 omega prime
    1 flat

    Tech Deck

    I like Tech-Deck, and also Ice World.
    I have a thing for snow bases and I think the white ice would look good as a contrast to the Deathwatch scheme.
    Are you painting all the bases yourself Tox?

    My Warhammer stuff online: Youtube Twitter Insta
  • TraceofToxinTraceofToxin King Nothing Registered User regular
    Nope, I'm doing ice for my DE and my guy who is doing Hector and the Dread will be doing the bases. The one who painted my DE.

    Looks like tech deck is gonna pull this unless we get a big swing.

  • NealnealNealneal Registered User regular
    I like Goth Tech, but Tech Deck is cool too.

  • TheLawinatorTheLawinator Registered User regular
    I think we should all be on Objective markers.
