Lord_Edgimus Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 having recently acquired a lovely display piece http://grailslair.files.wordpress.com/2012/02/sam_0436.jpg i figure i should get some models in it at all times. now rather than having the elephant in the chapel taking up more space than i have, i'd like to have sammy off his speeder/jet bike. the only model that springs to mind atm is the space marine commander, i'm sure all the dark angel stuff i have can be kitbashed into a nice sammy model. can anyone else recommend anything that might be a better choice or something that might help make the model more sammy like? cheers in advance folks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raven Angel Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 I'd say start with the plastic commander and use parts from the DA vet and upgrade frames on him. You could even give him a standard bike to stand by. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ajax Tlamunus Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 The actual Sammael model might be a good place to start, his torso would probably fit a set of plastic robed legs without too much trouble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope, Sammael from the jetbike model is actually about twice as wide as a standard marine's torso. Maybe if you true scaled some legs it'd work.

Then just g/s the rest of the robe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord_Edgimus Posted August 8, 2012 Author Share Posted August 8, 2012 cheers for the advice folks, only issue with using sammy if he is twice as wide would mean that in relation to the other models he'd be standing besides he'd look out of place. plan is to have sammy, belial, azrael and ezekiel standing in the chapel till we get some new named characters ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alys Dwr Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 FOr some reason this model immediately sprung to mind. Swap out the chainsword for a power sword and paint him with black armour and i think he'll look good as a dismounted Sammael. Al Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
