BobaHat Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 Ever since GW first released the Lysander mini, I have hated it. This is a guy who is First Captain of the Imperial Fists, has a mean big hammer and deep strikes straight into the thick of the battle, beating men, machines and alien scum into pulp with no mercy. The GW mini looks like he's sneaking around on tiptoes, trying not to be seen. Well I want to change that. So here's my conversion so far. He is still missing the right shoulder pad. I have decided to give him one with style, so I've ordered the Forge World pads, which should arrive within the next few days I hope. I will also be adding wires and stuff to his head, and of course his goatee beard, using green stuff. I will most likely also be making a nice scenic base for him. http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d166/RobinHat/lysanderwip.jpg What do you think?

WingsOfTheFalcon Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 A good start and certainly more dynamic than the standard model. What are your plans for the base?

BobaHat Posted August 11, 2008 Author Share Posted August 11, 2008 I was thinking something along the lines of a large rock that he's walking up so that he's more upward facing, but haven't quite decided yet. Any ideas? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/143306-imperial-fists-captain-lysander-conversion-wip/#findComment-1659746 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trajan Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 I like him alot better like this, Bobahat. And about walking up a rock, sounds like a good idea. Slightly looking up for a real big juciy target to smash ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/143306-imperial-fists-captain-lysander-conversion-wip/#findComment-1659752 Share on other sites More sharing options...

"over there lads!" look forward to the painted model.
