Smiths of Atlas SM army WIP pics!

[The Trooper]

why thank you fellow marylander

 

[The Trooper]

almost there....

 

[revmatt]

Im totally inspired to do a few dreads now. Where is that piece under the smokies, above the sarcofacus from?

 

[The Trooper]

storm sheild with the top and bottom trimmed to the skull outline:bouncy:now all i got to do is build 3 more of these suckers, not sure on what to arm them with.......

 

[Bengoodall]

Go for more nasty drill arm kind of things, maybe a saw blade job, much like the chaos ones from forgeworld.

 

[The Trooper]

what about a wrecking ball?! im in love with close combat so any nasty ohgodimrunningfromthat weapon ideas are welcome!!!

 

[JesterzUSMC]

Um....SMITHS of Atlas?

Maybe a Big Hammer?

 

[The Trooper]

from the hammer comes the sword!!!!!!(our little battle cry)

 

[daemon boy]

yeah, thats a cool idea, go for the hammer! the hammmer!!!!!:beer:<he\'ll look like this..but not beer

 

[revmatt]

a humungous spiked mace.

 

[The Trooper]

dont worry, Im not dead yet, just busy! im in the process of moving my work area from here

to here

so i dont really have the room to work on my little guys at the moment, but, i saw this as time to work on some terrain pieces, first up is a ruined temple monument thing

im going to put a warhammer empire lord on steed with a hammer on the bottom floor center platform and paint it up like a bronze statue

and some bunkers

2 regular, 2 watchtowers, 1 comm bunker, and a not yet finished fuel depot

:drunk:cheers:drunk:

 

[Thunderhawker]

Good stuff on the WIP front there, Troop. I am looking forward to some finished products.

 

[The Trooper]

sssooo this is what im aiming for as a total 10,000 point army, that is if my calculations are correct, any thoughts? more this, less that, some of these, some of those, etc. (a digital high-five for anyone who will double check that math part!!)



i think im about 2000 points shy of the dream as of now, counting sprues and boxes not assembled, but heck, theres always room for more!

 

[The Trooper]

alrighty, its been alittle while since ive updated this so i figured id dust off the ol\' camera and show you hombres what ive been tinkering with

first the fellblade ive always wanted



i prepd the sides for an extra set of flamer/heavy bolter turrets



i was thinking of using the two light poles as telli homers in some apoc games...

my comander whos 3x to big for the copula

two really big guns



a dred

a crawly dred

and the reason ive been missing my 40k time




my first love, blasted chainmallie! working on a shirt for my brother, his plan is to wear it 24/7 to \"beef up\", which i think will work considering how friggin heavy 6000+ rings of stainless steel can be

cheers!:drunk:

 

[firephinix]

hi im liking what ur doing. i hope to give u a idea for one of ur dreads. as u said u dont like the las arm but in the old sm codex theres a different las arm which iv borrowed the idea for.

 

[hestan101]

will this army be continued now that the new dex is out? theers some real modeelign skill in it

 

[The Trooper]

firephinix - im diggin the las arm, ive always thought dred arms looked better as actual appendages to move and aim about then static ones that need the chest to swivel to pan the herizon, but that could just me

hestan101 - i doubt the new codex will cause to much of a problem, maybe in hosted events but for crushing the local greenskins, no problems so far, and considering ive yet to go to said \"hosted events\" i foresee none in the future!
