Photos of the initial layout and prep are attached, and I plan frequent update during the build and paint process. I've included images of the boxes, certificate, initial layout, and post cleaning, as well as the Claw construction. Next week I should have paint tests for the armor plates and images of the cockpit, as well as LED lighting test for the head.

The wonderful boxes that signify the start of a Warlord!
All the parts laid bare and ready to be assembled.
Never ceases to amaze how big the claw actually is.
A lovely start to a deadly weapon.
A lot has been done on the head and body.
Very lovely work on the weapons, and a cool conversion for the Ordo Sinister's specialized weapon.
And a unique and great looking conversion for the head and shoulder plates as well.

*sigh* ... I want one. Beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThe first Ordo Sinister engine that registered on TOC.
DeleteThanks Shadow! Proud to join the honored ranks here. Power testing my LED setup tonight, fingers crossed all twelve lights work first try!
ReplyDeleteGreat bodywork, love the weathering on the endo skeleton
ReplyDeleteThanks! I'll be adding more trim colors and details before oil weathering, then on go the armor plates.
DeleteWow... that is sooooo good 😊
ReplyDeleteThank you sir, an honor coming from the master of multiple engines!
DeleteI'm with Hertford on this. Difference is I can't pick words to describe how impressed I am by it.
DeleteI'm pleased everyone digs the direction I've gone. Warlord Sinister desrciptions are thin so I've taken some license. LED test today didn't go well so I'm delayed a bit but it shouldn't slow me too much.
Delete"If at first you don't succeed...."
DeleteWould love to see how you did this and the paint scheme. You're more than welcome to send in a painting tutorial for how you did and and we'll show it off for you.
Will do, I'm doing step by step photos when I get to batch painting the armor plates.
DeleteI have to ask, where did you get the lion heads for the shoulder pads?
ReplyDeleteThe heads were 3d printed, the mane and Legion symbol on the forehead was sculpted with green stuff.
DeleteNathanial, I'm thinking an Ordo Sinister might be in my future. Can I disuses with you about possibly getting a set of the lion heads? I think that's such a fantastic conversion.
DeleteI had them printed by a friend, I can email you a link to the 3d file we used.
DeleteFantastic. Jon_beatty@hotmail.com
DeleteI know the heads have gotten a lot of attention and they ARE beautiful. But I want to hear the warhorns when you get them done!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful work sir!
Nathaniel, did you have a chance to email that file? Ordeo Sinisters ranks maybe growing.
ReplyDeleteI as well would be interested in the heads.. anyway we can get in touch?
ReplyDeleteIf possible, I would appreciate the lion head file as well. I am currently building my warlord and looking to do the Ordo Sinistra as well. Jonathan.e.seaton@gmail.com
ReplyDeleteHi there, lovely work on this!!! I am also going to do a Ordo Sinister warlord, should be here in a few weeks. Can I also get that 3D printer file?
ReplyDeleteHi there,
ReplyDeleteCan I ask what paints you used for the colour scheme? That green is fantastic.
Im loving the whole Ordo Sinister lore. I would love the oppurtunity to have a copy of that lion head sculpt to make for a freind. Is it possible to have a link to that 3d file? Thanks and all the best.
