keimigca Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 Here is my newly completed Captain. This took alot longer than I expected, but I think that it went well. http://i907.photobucket.com/albums/ac278/keimigca/135946_10150099266889459_721924458_7259507_3729544_o.jpg http://i907.photobucket.com/albums/ac278/keimigca/133559_10150099266364459_721924458_7259500_4512368_o.jpg http://i907.photobucket.com/albums/ac278/keimigca/132907_10150099267154459_721924458_7259508_1271898_o.jpg http://i907.photobucket.com/albums/ac278/keimigca/132880_10150099267184459_721924458_7259509_2931721_o.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/217035-my-new-marine-captain/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyrannicide Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 And that's exactly how an Ultramarines Captain is supposed to look. Nice work. :tu: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/217035-my-new-marine-captain/#findComment-2587755 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vash113 Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 The weapons certainly make the pose look more impressive than Sicarius standing there with his sword sheathed, good work!

JD_Jess Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 I play 3rd as well, always interested in seeing another take on the "old man" looks great!!!

subtlebrush Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 Gives off a more bad ass vibe then Sicarius did before you converted it. Looks great!

Brother Caedrius Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 Lovely paint job! especially love the helmet, where's that from? bought or hand sculpted?

Gearhead Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 Looks like one of the Iron Warrior helms, don't know where the crest comes from though. The conversion is definitely cool, looks majestic without looking fragile. Like an eagle, I suppose.

Vash113 Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 It looks like a Dire Avenger Crest to me but I could be mistaken. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/217035-my-new-marine-captain/#findComment-2587909 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Perun Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 niceeee!!! :) just a little thought/suggestion...perhaps a sword in another color just to be a contrast to mini...? cheers! ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/217035-my-new-marine-captain/#findComment-2587916 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grizzly_bear Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 Not a massive fan of the ultramarines but this model looks hard.....very nice pose, and helmet looks great too....I would suggest that the sword be painted a deep red for contrast against the blue plus it'll tie in with the third companies colours.

Brother_Ovis Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 Good work. Even though it makes me think GW is going too fantasy recently, what's with the shields and swords, what will be next, dragons? :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/217035-my-new-marine-captain/#findComment-2587939 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disruptor_fe404 Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 An excellent model, I must say. Excellent enough that I intend to add Sicarius to my list of models to get and convert (along with the Master of the Chapter).

keimigca Posted December 13, 2010 Author Share Posted December 13, 2010 The helmet is indeed iron warriors with a dire avengers crest. Thanks for all the comments. This is the first fig I have painted in about a year or so, and I am really proud of it. I agree about the sword though, a red would have been a great idea, but oh well. Not going to change it now.

confused_gordy Posted December 14, 2010 Share Posted December 14, 2010 lol was just going to comment on the choice of banner but i just realized it comes with sicarious. I really like how subtle your highlighting is. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/217035-my-new-marine-captain/#findComment-2588852 Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrotherZaah Posted December 14, 2010 Share Posted December 14, 2010 I really like this pose, and your painting is cool, I just think that the detail moulded onto the armour should be gold, as befitting of a captain rank and to better represent artificer armour. But thats a personal taste, cool conversion. BZ Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/217035-my-new-marine-captain/#findComment-2589096 Share on other sites More sharing options...
MagicMan Posted December 14, 2010 Share Posted December 14, 2010 Fantastic. Its got that passive ''rock hard'' feel to it. I think the sword would look better in another colour, maybe a dark green or something for some contrast, but thats down to personal taste.
