Well, I always planned on posting more than one model for this challenge.

I had a friend of mine suggest I do a pre Badab war Astral Claw captain. So, I present for viewing, Callirus, Sword of Badab, commander of the 2nd.

And here is my humble attempt.

Imperial Fist Praetor dav test-tastaklease

The rank of praetor was almost impossible to achieve, but dav test-tastaklease earned it in short order. Ever ready to submit to his inner rage and smite his foes with the "pain gauntlet" thunder hammer Test-tastaklease possessed a true flair in the employment of his legion marines be it a squad or pacification army.

Couldn't find anywhere if he had to be on foot, so build one on a bike, as I needed one, on a.....bike..

Pardon the image quality, had to take them with my phone.

My first attempt is going to be somewhat simple, yet te model is very symbolic to the nature of a commander in charge. This piece is a reflection of the weight of leadership, and the pressure that comes with it. It also shows that sometimes, when faced with insurmountable odds.... Even an astarties makes a mistake. Finally, it represents my younger days in the game, when I would start off with a somewhat sound plan, only to completely alter it mid battle because I was not confident in its abilitys. The resulting chaos led always to bitter defeat....

Now I did not wait 24 hours to post, this is because as soon as I vowed, I set upon my bits box like a child upon Christmas gifts. When I came across a forgotten blue arm discarded like a child's old doll, Inspiration hit me! I knew I had a left arm pointing, so with the right arm, I could do something amazing! More rummaging and I found a sutiable body that was already pieced together, and a head with a look of both "I'm da boss" and still looks like he's terrified at the same time. The backpack was laying around as was the legs. So it took me less than an hour, so now seemed to be as good a time as any.

Well, I think we can all agree that the 1st Challenge Update is weeeelll overdue.

 

Captains has been the most productive challenge so far with 44 Participants already (That number, I'm fairly sure is right, database crash'n'all). From the 44 participants we've already had 25 excellent completions from just 15 of you guys, cod_lover leads the charge with 5 Captains under his belt.

 

The Completions come from the following guys, and they've earned the right to display the Completion Banner/Pip with pride;

 

Malus Trux x 4

cod_lover x 5

Volfen

ChaptermasterDemon7 x 3

ben rolls

reaper_man x 2

HellChyld

Razed_Ruins

Cheers, and looking forward to the rest of the Challenge,

Jono
