This is a HeroClix Black Knight figure. I have used it as a base for
Judge Dredd jet (and wheeled) bikes in the past. This time I am going
to use it to make som Iron Snakes jetbikes.
Sometimes I leave the legs on, sometimes I take the legs off. For this
project, I will leave the legs on ... but ... I also add a little
greenstuff to give the legs bell bottoms. 40K Speeece Mareeeenz gotta
have bellbottoms.
While the Iron Snakes are 100% behind the 10 man team, I am only making
six right now becuase I only have six legless SM torsos (I have the extra
four HC BK figures), and those need a little extra attention (you can see
some additional greenstuff for a pauldron). The IS are 10 man team rigid,
but they are also combined arms heavy at the team level, so I can just
distribute these to as many teams as I want. I may also come back and
do the additonal four later, either when I get more job lot torsos or if
I decided to conduct a legectomy for some other project.
Just mash them together and paint them up now. Here's the whole IS force
I have to date, with the jetbikes right up front.
And a close up of the jetbikes. I mirrored the pauldron insignia standard
for the jetbikes (and the land bikes in the background there). I made two
different heights, three each. I like the variety and it also helps you pack
them into a tighter formation without bumping the protruding bits.
Here's an extra shot with dimmed lighting showing the LEDs in the
IS Knight Titans.
I have a red one and a green one now.
Going forward with this:
- Four more jet bikes
- Eight more land bikes (maybe ... they're expesive and rate in job lot offers
- I don't like the tank ... I'm thinking WWI MK IV Female tanks for the IS
- I only need three more terminator armour figures to make a set of ten, though these are more likely to be distributed than a whole team.
One needs to be an apothecary since I already have a chaplain and a
librarian, as well as two unhelmeted females to go with the other female
units.
- Always more infantry! (Maybe another Dreadnought, too ... the one I
have is Hecate themed (two torches and a dog), maybe Hades themed for
the next one.)
