Spell Martyr Conversion

Original upload date: April 20 2013

When I first read about Spell Martyrs, I imagined them busting ribs Alien-style just as they are consumed by their Warlock’s magic. So I wanted my Martyrs to be mostly intact, pre-rib-burst. My third Martyr will eventually be the original sculpt.

The female is based on Cylena Raefyll’s torso with the original Martyr legs and arms. The male is the original with a resculpted chest.

Angelius Conversion

Original upload date: April 20 2013 – March 16 2015

I love to use the Angelius in games, even if he is a little top heavy.

Angelius

In order to convert my second Angelius, I chopped the middle part of the tail off  and then sculpted a new one wrapping around a (bark chip) rock. The core of the tail was made of aluminium foil to save on weight, putty and to act as a frame so that I could get the positioning right.

I cut away the wing webbing close to his body and repositioned this wings curled around closer, like a perched gargoyle.

I might even prefer him to the original, he certainly topples over less often!

Forsaken Conversion

Original upload date: April 17 2013

I wanted at least two Forsaken for my Abby list but I don’t like to have identical models, so I had a go at modifying the second one.

At this point I was still very new to sculpting so I needed a reference to compare size and shapes. I based the new head off Vayl1 and the new arm off Annyssa Ryvaal’s.

Shepherd Conversion

Original upload date: April 17 2013 – July 12 2015

I painted my first Shepherd to have a bright red cape lining.

I came to greatly value the Shepherd’s presence on the battlefield, both in healing a much needed beast and managing fury. I don’t think there’s a better one-point option for Legion. I wanted another, so two years later I converted a second Shepherd.

Shepherd Conversion

To distinguish her from the original sculpt I wanted to remove her hood and make her hold the weapon in both hands. I gave her Saeryn’s head and Cylena Raefyll’s arms which I modified to hold the scythe instead of her sword.

Shepherd Conversion

This conversion looks simple but was actually surprisingly fiddly. First I had to remove the head, arms and a substantial part of the cloak to go with them. Cylena’s arms end halfway up the bicep so I pinned them into position and sculpted back in the rest. Getting them into the correct position was very tricky because I had to gauge the correct arm length and ensure that the angles matched up so that the haft would sit correctly in both hands. I resculpted the top part of the cloak and added a hood from Eiryss3.

Shepherd Conversion

Here they are, side by side for comparison:

Ravagore

Original upload date: April 16 2013 – September 19 2015

The Ravagore/Scythean was my first attempt at magnetising the multi-part kit. The arms and heads can be swapped between the two heavy beasts.

Ravagore

I like the fire effect on the first ravagore, but I left it off on the second one so that I could more easily tell them apart on the battlefield. Apologies for washing the colour out!
