I like everything except the pose of the marine who is (presumably) about to get stomped.

 

He looks like he's doing the YMCA. 

 

Is he there for scale, or part of the base?

STOMP!

 

 

nice!

 

A good model for the about to get stomped marine imo would be the firing a bolt pistol guy from here. .

Just turn it up like he's shooting at the knight. Final act of defiance sort of thing.

I do like the idea of this diorama, however I would think the marine would not have fear struck in him if he was about to get stomped. At least that is what that pose conveys to me. I could see a guardsmen throwing his hands up at that, however I feel a marine regardless if he is a loyalist or traitor would do his best to weather the stomp. After all he is/was one of the Emperors finest and is encased in a ceramite armored suit that may very well afford him a chance of survival.

 

Maybe throwing his shoulder into it to brace himself.

 

I look forward to seeing this completed. Thanks for sharing!

Hey buddy if you need an inspiration (I know it's a shameless plug but you can check out the maintenance bay in the aod)

 

I love it when I see knight houses with paint jobs of this caliber here on the b&c!

Thanks Kurama, some great Knights on your thread and a really great idea for a thread too, I'll certainly look to post this knight on there when it's complete.

 

Think I may manage to pick up some titles too while I'm on there, got a Castigator and Errant painted to a base standard and picked up an Acheron and Lancer while was at warhammer world a few weeks back and I've got a Crusader to make up out of the wining knight from the renegades box.

 

A fair bit of work to do, should be able to get stuck into it after I've finished my scratch build Zone Mortalis board.

 

This hobby eats time!

Been working on this fella for a few hours tonight and last night, progressing well I feel.

Was nervous about painting the power first glow on his leg too, I think it looks just about OK.

Thanks, I've been mulling this over and the longer I've considered the more I think your right.

So, a modification is under consideration.

 

How about instead of a scared marine, I replace it with everyone's favourite 30k nut job, Khârn!!

 

He looks about ready to tear the knight a new one I reckon.
