KJB Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 Cobbled this guy together over the weekend, still haven't decided on which Chapter to go with - Thinking either Dark Angel, Imperial Fist or Ultramarine - Or a successor, I have no idea.... He has the head and left arm/sword from the DA Primaris upgrade kit and MK III shoulder pads from the Burning of Prospero box. I decided to remove the awful purity seals that had been stuck on his right forearm, I didn't fully think this through as I then had to spend ages reshaping/carving his arm and wrist.... Still need to do the base and stick some purity seals on him (proper ones) AND THEN GO THROUGH HELL TRYING TO DECIDE WHAT CHAPTER TO GO WITH - WHY IS IT SO HARD?!?!?!?

Kor Dalron Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 Definitely a good looking model! And if it has too be a dirty loyalist i´d make him an Imperial Fist, you never can go wrong with these stubborn bastards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KJB Posted July 4, 2019 Author Share Posted July 4, 2019 Slight amendment to make him more Captain like, added the cloak from the real Primaris Captain kit (which, surprisingly, fit perfectly...) Also put together an Apothecary, no major changes bar the MK III shoulder pads and the removal of the dead marine (which I've always found slightly disrespectful...) Just need to decide on a Chapter... I'm leaning towards Imperial Fists... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dosjetka Posted July 4, 2019 Share Posted July 4, 2019 Both models look great. You can never go wrong with choosing Imperial Fists. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ranulf the revenant Posted July 4, 2019 Share Posted July 4, 2019 Since the apothecary already got an ork skull, you might go Crimson Fist as well... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KJB Posted July 5, 2019 Author Share Posted July 5, 2019 Decided to change the head... That's it, I swear no more changes! Just need to fix the slight ding I made on the collar when I took his head off... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshal Reinhard Posted July 5, 2019 Share Posted July 5, 2019 Hmm, I do quite like the latest head (and what you've done with him in general... that tidbit about the cape was very interesting) I do wonder about the bionic eye though, since he's holding a normal helmet... don't space marine characters with bionic eyes and a helmet not usually have eye slits for the bionic eye half of the helmet? Like say the PriMarneus for example, his helmeted head doesn't have the normal eye-slit for the eye, but rather a big targeter thingy that presumably his bionic eye interfaces with when he has the helmet on. I dunno, I think it would just bother me a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KJB Posted July 5, 2019 Author Share Posted July 5, 2019 You make an annoyingly valid point about the head... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
k0nahrik Posted July 5, 2019 Share Posted July 5, 2019 Really nice conversion, a good subtle kitbash, when pulled off correctly, is as good as a mega-custom sculpt job You make an annoyingly valid point about the head... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nomus Sardauk Posted July 6, 2019 Share Posted July 6, 2019 If I may make a suggestion, rather than make him an Imperial Fists as you're currently so tempted, why not paint him up as one of the Fists' Sucessors? Like the Fire Lords, the Excoriators, Celestial Lions or (my personal pick) the Hospitalliers: https://warhammer40k.fandom.com/wiki/Hospitallers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
