Zealot Miniatures - Blacksmith (The New Renaissance)

[InsaneTD]

The goblins are awesome!

[Narric]

Thantos, why isn't this a product on Zealot?



It looks freakin awesome!!

Ha ive been sitting on the prototyped masters of that guy for like 2 years now. Hes about the size of your fist. Guess i forgot about him
Where did you find that? lol

Did him for as a futuristic robotic submarine drone. Was thinking WALL-E underwater

[Narric]

I'm on your LinkedIn

I assume the Motorbike model is the one you never made a rider for? Remove a few layers of armour, and you could use the "Pilot Girl" model

[Thantos]

Ha you should be a private investigator

Yea, was thinking of sculpting it in epoxy (apart from the helmet) when i get the time. Likely this summer when uni over
Duno if should go for a female rider with big biker boots, light sci fi armour and helmet. Or scifi male trooper based on WWII bikers.

At the moment, the riderless bike is available from a client's store who i sold the rights to produce it to. 15 quid though from them.

Pilot girl i sold unfortunately, so cant use any parts of that :/

Incoming demon spawn.

Dunno whether this is the place to put these... But figured it made sense!
I found my zealot pieces!

Knocked a sample using some of the conversion pieces I picked up... What do you reckon?

[Thantos]

Looks great Chris Cool to see the parts in action!
Compared to how many go out the door, its surprising how few examples of peoples completed minis I see or get sent  :derp:

For your home brew chapter too?

[Chris]

Yus indeedy...
Unfortunately i found the helmet plumes a little too big at the back to go on straight with either the jump pack or normal back pack. They'll have to be saved for just the sergeants who can have a turny head...

Great stuff though mate! Keep going with them!

Hey Thantos, do you or anyone you know stock post-modern style scifi soldiers? I'm thinking like the ODSTs from Halo, to look like advanced, well equipped humans for my Tau. Really been struggling to find just the right models.

[Narric]

I know a couple places myself.

Mad Robot Miniatures do a large range of IG suitable conversion parts.
Puppets War also have a pretty cool and Sci-fi-y unit of Humans.

I've also seen a few conversion guides floating around that'll allow you to use normal Lasguns to make cool weapons.

[CoffeeGrunt]

Ahhh, PuppetsWar! I remember stumbling across their Dragonfly and couldn't find it again. I definitely want one as a Valkyrie counts-as in the future. (The ultimate destiny of my Gue'vesa is to become a Guard force of their own when the new 'dex drops.)

Those rotor Jump Packs are excellent, and once I find the right armour/weapons, I'll be buying and building these straight away. Thanks, Narric!

[Thantos]

Or these from mantic perhaps?

Rej got a couple of your bots not long ago and he's painted them and been playing them in his admech army ever since. Have you seen them yet? Here's a picture of one taking on another friend's riptide (which it duly chewed up in close combat):

[Thantos]

Ha awesome, havent seen those before Who won that standoff? Never knew Rej ordered.
If you place an order, mention your 2S username and ill see if i can find some extra bitz to add in for you

[CoffeeGrunt]

Hmmm...on the fence about those Mantic miniatures. Don't really like the studded leather boots, or the face plate. On the other hand, the armour is cool, though I don't think the weapon would suit.

Man, I'm fussy...
