Dr. Tortenkopf is making Terminators great again
Removing the chapter markings
The Terminators I am using are from the 7th Edition Dark Vengeance starter box. And they are Dark Angels Death Wing Terminators.
So in order to turn them into another chapter I will have to at least remove all the obvious Dark Angel chapter markings. Since they will be turned into Howling Griffons, a chapter with a strong knightly, heraldic background rich in both avian and leonine imagery, I figured that all manner of swords wings and feathers are probably ok as decorations.
But the large stylized wings on the sergeants back and the angel relief on his right boot had to go. And of course the actual chapter symbols on the shoulders.
The chapter markings on the shoulderpads are being carefully shaved of with a crafting knife.
The finished right arms without the chapter markings.
This file was used to smooth out the shoulder pad after shaving of the markings.
A finished and cleaned of shoulderpad.
Great idea – the ’embiggification’ – I have a spare set of the very same Deathwing – I thing I’ll give it a go.
