Forbidden Psalm: Adepticon 2024 crew

I’ve been Forbidden Psalm curious for a long time, but never found the opportunity to actually give it a go. Adepticon 2024 was finally my chance.

Ada the Cacorra

I assembled my team. I went into the bit box (and swag of Adepticon past) to find interesting bits. Many of the torsos are Black Sun Enforcers from Legion.

Breadman the Silly

But then the heads and arms are mostly GW from various games and kits.

Hald the Possum

After I built the models I tried to build the crew using the Forbidden Psalm rules. Many of the flaws ran counter to how I wanted to run the model. Oh well, all hail the dice.

Marek the Pallid

It was clear at the event that I didn’t go weird enough with the conversions. But it was a great time.

Nakus the Toothsayer

Shatterpoint: Lead By Example (Plo Koon squad)

This box was one I skipped on at first. So then I was very pleased when it was the one that happened to come in the Adepticon swag bag. No swapping needed!

Plo Koon

Plo always remind me of Zoidberg from Futurama.

Commander Wolffe

“Wolffe”. Very clever names, as always.

Somehow the guys with long guns want to be in close combat.

Shatterpoint: Fearless and Inventive (Luke Skywalker squad)

Let’s get back to the original trilogy!

Luke Skywalker, Jedi Knight

I’m continuing with the quick and dirty drybrush OSL method. It’s a bit overdone, but it gives a strong energy to the lightsabers, which I really like.

Bar2-D2 is the real star of the show.

Boushh (Leia)

And of course, Boushh. Seen here in with a thermal detonator ready to go.

Fearless and Inventive

Shatterpoint: Fear and Dead Men (Darth Vader squad)

Now we’re talking. Some original trilogy baddies.

Darth Vader, the Emperor’s Servant

Darth Vader is where it’s at. I don’t love his billowing cloak. I considered converting it, but decided not to. The silhouette is important for my opponent to understand which version of Vader I’m playing. Also I’m lazy, and not sure I could do it well.

Stormtrooper Sergeant

Mr Sergeant, the first unnamed Secondary.

And some stormtroopers to round it out.
