demio Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 So I'm about to order him and want to give him a helmet. I will probably have to sculpt it as he's so huge compared to other marines a simple swap probably won't work. Has anyone seen any artwork of him with a helmet? And if yes can you link or point me in the right direction please. I would assume it's going to be like the Breacher Marines helmets. Cheers all!

m_r_parker Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 There's been a couple of threads about similar stuff already. The Gorget of his armour makes a helmet impossible to put on - and some people have found that other bare heads also have problems fitting. Proceed with care.

Lucien Eilam Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 He wears a Mk III helm, to match his artificer Mk III armour. From The Crimson Fist: "I nodded, locked my plough-fronted iron helm in place, and opened a communication channel." So you could try a breacher helm, or maybe the laureled helm from the IF head upgrade kit. As you say, he's massive, so he might look a bit pin-headed with a standard helmet. Personally, I'd probably at least try it before breaking out the green stuff though.

Thorv88 Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 Looks fine. The scale is in your mind. Just raise it up a little and he looks spot on. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/310177-alexis-polux-helmet/#findComment-4105411 Share on other sites More sharing options...

lionofjudah Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 I'll try the laureled helm as well- don't like my marines to be bareheaded- doesn't make much sense to me:) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/310177-alexis-polux-helmet/#findComment-4105667 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshal Rohr Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 Shave the gorget down. The helms scale fine. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/310177-alexis-polux-helmet/#findComment-4105821 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corswain Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 If your unhappy with scale maybe use a Grey Knights Terminator helmet? It's knighty enough! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/310177-alexis-polux-helmet/#findComment-4105920 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gab Posted July 4, 2015 Share Posted July 4, 2015 Has anyone worked in some blue and Crimson for Polux? Curious as to how it looks and how others have worked it in.
