Dave the Twisted Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 Reading some Arthurian legend, particularly Sir Gawain and the Green Knight, I was hit by inspiration for the bike captain I've been wanting. Here's a link to the sketch since it's a tad muddled and a very high-res scan. The parts rundown is as follows: -Bretonnian Horse, will be converted to look mechanical -Mk6 Corvus Greaved Legs -Torso to be GS'd into Mk3 Iron Armor with gorget -Company Champion Power Sword -Grenade Throwing Arm, will be GS'd into holding reins -Eldar or Blood Angel Head, because they're so much more handsome than your standard marine -Company Champion Shoulderpad -U with Skull Shoulderpad -Captain's Eagle Backpack -Green Stuff for the various modifications I'll need to do, including a big cape The heraldry on the shield is to be a star with Guilliman in the center, representing the 5 knightly virtues and the Primarch (Undecided on the Fleurs). The captain wears a green sash (made from GS) and the command squad will all wear green baldrics (also GS) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/207600-knightly-bike-captain-planning/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Durus Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 [...]-Bretonnian Horse, will be converted to look mechanical [...] Wouldn't it be easier to use this as a base for the conversion and just add the cloth and iconography? It comes in a more heroic pose as well. Sounds like and interesting concept.

Dave the Twisted Posted July 30, 2010 Author Share Posted July 30, 2010 While that would be amazing to use, I do run on a ridiculously low-income budget. Besides, I don't have the tools to remove the metal rider's legs.

Olgerth Istaarn Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 Is this guy metal? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/207600-knightly-bike-captain-planning/#findComment-2476556 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave the Twisted Posted July 30, 2010 Author Share Posted July 30, 2010 Yes, I believe the horse and rider are both metal, and I'm pretty sure the rider is joined to the horse.
