Following on from
Part 8, I have been working on finishing up the one model that is magnetized. He is a Special Weapons Trooper that I have magnetized three special weapons arms so I can adjust his options as needed. You can see how I did the work of integrating these magnets into this model in
Part 5.
I had to decide on the final position for the left arm, as it will be bracing and securing the weapons when attached. I settled on a 'firing' position.

Brace arm attached. |
The next few pics shows how the weapons arms attach:

Grav gun. |

Melta gun. |

Finally I added the head which I positioned to appear to be looking in the direction that the gun is aiming. I also attached the shoulder pads and if you compare the following pics to the ones above you can see how well that they cover the magnet joins and surgical scars left over from the conversion.

Grav gun finished. |

Plasma gun finished. |

Melta gun finished. |
And with that, our Multi-Option Weapons Specialist is completed! The next, and ultimate post, will be about the Veteran Sergeant who I am very much looking forward to completing.

The assembled unit...but where is Sarge?! |
They have to have someone to shout about purging the heritics!
ReplyDeleteYes, always.
ReplyDeleteUnit is looking great! scheme really comes into play when they are all together!
ReplyDeleteKnow the bases are already done, but if you wanted them to pop a bit more, try a darker grey color. [like ruined concrete] (to pop the golds).
Thanks. The bases are not totally done yet actually. I was going to add some grass tufts and maybe some random ork gear.
DeleteNeverness, check these out, any plans for your own?

Oh cool. And yes the thought has crossed my mind that this should be an obvious chapter for Primaris reinforcements...still on the fence about that idea though, as I sort hate hand painting those damn icons. 😁
