The story's definitely worth it though: While Angron is *very* true to his name, the story also does a great job of humanising him and explaining his origins and the reasons for his distance from his father, the Emperor. <br /><br />A great read and definitely the high points of the (rather lackluster) "Tales of Heresy" story collection, IMHO.KrautScientisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16992997405409517857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3721613951987981892.post-57578725494511741422012-04-16T12:33:10.575-06:002012-04-16T12:33:10.575-06:00I appreciate the kind words!
@KrautScientist - I ...I appreciate the kind words!<br /><br />@KrautScientist - I don't think I've read "After Desh'ea", I'll have to track that down. Doh!<br /><br />@Ron - I'm thinking about taking another run at the model, this time with the two Chainaxes Gorefather and Gorechild, where he's more armored up - there will be rivets aplenty on that one I'm sure! Heh.<br /><br />@Kevin - Indeed, it came together pretty quickly. Then again, it was just one model so it didn't take as long as a whole unit or vehicle. It almost built itself!Mordian7thhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04631987711681654113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3721613951987981892.post-74261991772026029372012-04-16T11:14:58.183-06:002012-04-16T11:14:58.183-06:00Wow that was pretty quick!

I imagine he might have looked like that shortly after his reunion with his legion, when his memories of "Desh'ea" and the "hot dust" were still fresh.<br /><br />One thing, though: While you painted a number of scars on him, you forgot his "triumph rope", a scar snaking over his entire torso. It's described in "After Desh'ea" and is also clearly visible in the BL artwork you posted earlier.<br /><br />Apart from that small oversight, great job!KrautScientisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16992997405409517857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3721613951987981892.post-45829091802530607122012-04-15T21:10:55.411-06:002012-04-15T21:10:55.411-06:00Thanks very much, everyone!
@Col. Winterborne/Red...Thanks very much, everyone!<br /><br />@Col. Winterborne/Redscorps - Indeed, in fact I'm thinking about adding a unit of 'cultists' to the army to represent some freed gladiator types, and the old Necromunda Goliath models may be just the thing to use!<br /><br />@Colonel_Scipio - My initial plan was a bit more busy than this, and I may yet have another go with a version armed with Gorefather and Gorechild that's a bit more over the top...<br /><br />@Da Masta Cheef - Hah! The axehead and haft were nicked from a couple Nobs, the double-headed chainaxe was just the thing i needed. I tried to shave off the more orky glyphs and whatnot however.<br /><br />@Col. Ackland - I appreciate it! Definitely tried to capture the feel from the artwork, though he's not quite as heavily armored as some pictures, I thought this was suitable for earlier on in the Heresy...Mordian7thhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04631987711681654113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3721613951987981892.post-46855621178588758602012-04-15T20:40:18.566-06:002012-04-15T20:40:18.566-06:00OH! thats hot.

Very memorable as well, it's a simple pose, well painted, that sticks in your head. Keep looking over my shoulder now expecting to get a big whirry chain axe mace club in the back.
