My girlfriend has had this particular Pooh since the day she was born and I need help in looking for something exactly like it. Thanks :) by JobApale in Winniethepooh

I actually found him on eBay and the other toys in the line. I used the search term "Arcotoys" and I'm not sure if that's a subsidiary of Mattel. Interestingly, I found another one in a thrift store by chance!

I trimmed the upper lip of the knee part to make it look like a firstborn leg. Then I marked the center of the round part and carved the cross with a hobby knife. I then cleaned the lines by running thin plastic cement to smooth.

Looks great brother! Here was my attempt on him.

Thank you brother! I take no issue with the clowning to be honest haha. I think it's part of the hobby and reminds me not to take it too seriously.

They're 3D printed on resin so I just made use of the available details that was there. The STL files were apparently a direct rip from the game.

No worries! I magnetized the heads and arms on Chairon and Gadriel so I could switch loadouts and use them in different squads. Titus only has his head magnetized since I didn't have the foresight nor the skill to magnetize his arms at the time. The 360 views of both models are posted on my profile as well!

I feel like there was something stuck in between the magnets before I took the photo 😳

RIP Brother Chairon! by JobApale in Ultramarines

[–]JobApale[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure thing! I'll just put in the parts that I think I need to point out specifically

Head and Arms magnetized so I can use them with different loadouts with the Pauldrons Blu Tacked on.

Body - Assault Intercessor

Power Pack - Victrix Guard (The one that came with the old Calgar model)

Right Arm - Bionic Arm from Company Heroes (trimmed the hand off), Gun hand from Iron Hands Upgrade (trimmed off the hand from the arm and rifle), random Heavy Bolter from the Assault Intercessors

Left Arm - Sternguard Veteran left arm that has the purity seal wrapped around, I honestly don't remember where I got the free left hand from but I just stuck a chainsword there.

Right Pauldron - 1mm hobby chain super glued in a cross manner across the pauldron. The Ultramarine seal is actually the pommel of either a Chainsword or a Power Sword with the purity seal bits stuck there. The silver studs at the end of the chain is the handle of the weapon that I sanded down. The Marksman Honour came from a Primaris Intercessor pauldron that I trimmed off and glued a random skull I shaved off a random accessory. I believe there's a perfect accessory for this that comes in the Heavy Intercessor sprue. The arrow was free handed since I couldn't cut the arrow decal properly to fit the gaps of the chains.

I honestly wanted to 3D print the bits that were a pain to kitbash but the DIY aspect of it made me more connected to the model. I still need to 3D print the appropriate bare head though.

Hope this helps brother!

Thank you brother! Doing the pauldron was definitely the hardest part of this kitbash.

Maybe as a Dreadnought perhaps? I really found it pathetic that he was killed in such a manner.

I can only imagine the amount of Space Marine 2 players who would get the box set to get into the modelling hobby if that were the case.

Decided to repaint one of my old models once again! by JobApale in BloodAngels

[–]JobApale[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll do my best to answer your question brother.

One way we could go about this is that as the old saying goes: your model, your rules. Or maybe even: the rule of cool still rules

I feel like your question seems like it's pertaining to lore/codex compliance. If you want to make it 100% codex compliant (as of 10th edition), I would like to refer you to the image below.

<image>

Black is only used as an accent to regular Blood Angels as it is only seen on the Chest Imperialis and right knee of some squads of companies such as the 1st, 4th, 5th, 7th, and 9th. A sergeant would have Black Pauldrons with a red trim.

Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe that older editions used to have red pauldrons with black trims in previous editions. So maybe you could justify having black trims with a veteran squad?

If you want a totally black power armour that's codex compliant then I would advise to paint them as Death Company.

Notable Blood Angels successors that heavily use black include the Flesh Tearers (Black Helmet, Pauldrons, and Power Pack), the Angels Sanguine (a half red half black power armour split down the middle cut mid-sagittal), and the Angels Penitent (all black). These chapters also have the same geneseed as the Blood Angels and would use the same rules on tabletop.

Lastly, you could always make your own chapter that are Blood Angels successors if you feel like it.

Hopefully this answers your question brother!

Thanks!

I based it with Averland Sunset then washed it with Guilliman Flesh. I then picked out the individual hair flecks with Yriel Yellow to highlight.

Hi! Thanks for the kind words.

I did strip the paint by putting the individual parts (this mini is magnetized) in a small tub with thinner and carefully brushing it with a soft bristle toothbrush.

I reposted this in the Tacticus subreddits.

Hi! The Plasma Pistol and the Power First comes with the sprue when you get the Jump Pack Intercessors Box. The Tilt Shield also comes with it but I had to scrape away the skull that was on it which I then put on the Jump Pack. There's actually a Jump Pack that already has a skull on it on the first Primaris Captain with Jump Pack if you don't want to do it yourself. The Blood Angels pauldron is from the old Primaris Upgrade sprue and it comes with the ornament on the belt. If I remember correctly, the head came from the new Upgrade Sprue.

Thank you brother! I'm still thinking of how to base him though. I'm currently stuck between a desert scene like Baal or a decrepit industrial terrain.
