crimsondave Posted December 29, 2024 Share Posted December 29, 2024 I picked up the Tortuga Ezekiel and the head just didn’t look right to me. I performed some serious surgery on an old resin Ezekiel and got it to this. It’s not perfect by any means but the head looks more proportional regardless. He’s looking much more towards the ground than I wanted but the way I had to butcher the old model it didn’t leave much choice. It was further complicated by the fact I had to use a pos recast because the only GW model I could source was metal. If he was ever fine cast I couldn’t find one. Tortuga made him way too big to be honest. He’s dang near Gravis size. I put a Gravis style DA pad on him because the tacticus style looked too small. Hopefully GW gives us a new scale Ezekiel next go around.

crimsondave Posted December 29, 2024 Author Share Posted December 29, 2024 Well, I put him beside a new terminator and realized just how bad the scale was. Yikes. I cut his feet down to make him shorter but he’s still too big. Not sure I’d make this purchase if I had it to do over. The Cataphractii I picked up to make assault Deathwing look good though. The scale seems good. I guess I won’t know for sure until they are together.

crimsondave Posted January 18 Author Share Posted January 18 The Ezekiel was a big fail, but the Cataphractii assault Deathwing are going to work in case anyone was thinking of picking them up. Ignore the shields. They are 3d prints, not what came with them.

Tacitus Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 I don't think it was the height for Zeke. Given what I assume to be the rest of his feet, he knees, belt, and head match up with the same reference points on the Terminator - they can be kind of wonky because a lot of the armor is over their head - the part that throws me is the length of that leading forearm Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/384942-tortuga-ezekiel-conversion/#findComment-6088596 Share on other sites More sharing options...

The head that came for him was tiny. It was ridiculous looking with the rest of him so large.
