Steam-punk Vampire Counts

[Atoom]

Ohoy there,

Thought you might wanted to have a look at my Steam-punk inspired vampire counts.

Cute

Nice idea, now go to the painting table and get some pics up so we can all admire your work .

Sounds very promising.

Edit: just found out how to look at the pics. very cool work. can we expect something more?

 

[vampire lord bezza]

they look amazing

That is really cool, I just wish there was more!
I did see that Mechanizaed Mortuary Metal Monstrosity (hee hee) in the Golden Bat competition and I wondered if there was an army like that or what the background was. Now I know!

One thing that I will be honest about is that I don't really like the Fell Bat counts-as. While everything else really looks the part and makes sense, rocket skeletons just seem a little confusing if I were to face them across the table - I certainly wouldn't attribute minor undead with Hunter-Killer Missiles strapped to their back the power of a Fell Bat. Ah well, 'tis still a great little conversion!

Thanks for the comments - I can unveil a little about the progress of the project... I'm currently working on a Vangulf, that I expect to have completed in a couple of weeks from now.

@Vekarin: The fell-bats is in my experience (based on battles that lies years back) a fire and forget unit - They get to make one charge, then they die. More or less what you can expect from Rygnar's rocketeers.

Love the concept Atoom. The Rocketeers are really inventive and aside from the Doomsday Machine they are my favorite conversion you have up so far.

The Vanghulf - Or in this case the Roboghulf - is done. Check my www for pictures.

Loved the doomsday machine! Are those skellies from tomb kings?

 

[Nikos]

Hear, hear! The doomsday machine is a thing of beauty

 

[waaanial00]

The vampire powered Varghulf (sorry Roboghulf) is awesome! Rest arent to my taste but that definitely struck a cord with me

No, it is the top of a boe swarm from Privateer press:

Wow those are great. Really inspiring. The robo-ghulf is probably my favourite but the autoreaper is pretty snazzy too

 

[Zephyr]

I love Skaven, I love VC and this is like an insane blend of them. Very cool and the first army I have seen in this style

 

[Mr Saturday]

Big fan of the rocketeers. In particular the skeleton appearing to have some manner of disagreement with the dwarf. The robo-ghulf is pretty groovy too.

Incidentally, what did you use for the smoke and flame effects on the auto-reaper and rocketeers?

 

[Atoom]

Smok was created putting Clump Foilage on wire and soaking it in 50:50 PVA glue & water.

Ah, thanks very much!

I love the fellbat "rocketeers" and the Black coach the most.

The 'fellbats' are very clever, and I really like them. It does fit the feel of steampunk, and just put a smile on my face. I highly approve.

The coach is very impressive. Must be a huge piece to field, but it looks very impressive.

The autoreaper is pretty cool, and outside the RPG and in Warhammer, I might use that as a Coach if I didn't feel any carts. It has a wonderful grim humour to it, with the mulches feeding its victims right into the cart. Very clever.

Edit: The doomsday machine definitely has a mysterious steampunk feel!
