Clone Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 Here's my Captain armed with a combi-plasma and lightning claw. Originally I just used the AoBR Captain but I wanted a bit of a change so I got myself a Space Marine Commander kit and ripped apart my Captain and gave him some new gear. He's my first model that I've posted here so I'm eager to hear comments and critism. http://i209.photobucket.com/albums/bb313/RKG109/cap1.jpg http://i209.photobucket.com/albums/bb313/RKG109/cap2.jpg http://i209.photobucket.com/albums/bb313/RKG109/cap3.jpg As yet he has no name but thats in the works, suggestions welcome :) What do you guys think?

Tyrannicide Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 I like him, though the lightning claw is at a weird angle. I think turning it so the claws point in a more direct or straight manor would look better.

Navigator Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 Nice work, but however I feel most of the AoBR models lack any real POP and look kind of flat. Needs something more perhaps?

Battle Brother SuM Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 I like it alot... Giving me ideas on this model now. I feel the same about the Power Fist. If you rotate counter-clock-wise, with the top about 10:00, it would look more natural. I'm all about converting the AoBR models. http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/index.p...howtopic=152944 Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/157121-aobr-captain-conversion/#findComment-1837931 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clone Posted January 11, 2009 Author Share Posted January 11, 2009 Thanks for the comments guys. Trouble about the claw is I cut a bit too much away on one side and there is an unmissable flat bit on the back of the claw where it is glued to the shoulder pad so I had to put it at that weird angle to hide it. I don't have any GS so I didn't really have any other option at the time. :D I decided to convert the AoBr Cap as I liked the torso and cloak but I didn't really like his Bolter and Sword. The torso in the Commander kit looked a little too boring to me. Though the claw does look a bit weird, I do like him. Just need a name now and to test my colour scheme on a standard grunt lest I ruin my Cap by getting the colour scheme wrong and frantically trying to fix it. I really love the pre-heresy World Eaters scheme so I will base mine on that. Should have the IA article up soon...
