Petitioner's City Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 3 minutes ago, Karhedron said: Looking at the angle of the foot and the ruin, it might be possible to trim out the smoke and have the foot directly on the ruins in a "leaping" pose. I am not worried about the structural strength as the smoke looks about at thick as the foot anyway. I just don't like the smoke effects in general. Overall it is a really good model. I am actually thinking I might proxy him as Lemartes as I don't actually like the Primaris Lemmy model. This one looks much closer the previous version of the character. The only thing for me is that putting these side by side is that the old Lemartes is a far superior model! Pose, detail, character - it's just much more lovely :( If they had just scaled up the Lemartes model - maybe made it generic rather than BA specific, yes, but that is a gorgeous mini! phandaal, Gamiel, Brother Christopher and 4 others 2 2 3 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/387825-new-chaplain-with-jump-pack/page/2/#findComment-6167324 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inquisitor lorr Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 Really like this guy, other than the smoke. I DESPISE this trend of adding smoke / explosions / fire etc to models. Particularly in a way that is integral to a model. Make it an alternate piece for those that like it, by all means. But don’t lumber me with some cartoony looking static effect which breaks the immersion, please.

gaurdian31 Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 Looks more like a Black Templars Execrator with a jump pack thrown on. I mean I do like the Execrator and I do like this chaplain it just feels like I am looking at the same model.

The Lost Son Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 Overall I quite like it, still not a fan of the leg thrusters but I figure that would be quite a simple fix. I do feel the weapons are in the wrong hands though.

Wispy Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 (edited) Oh yeah that's the stuff. Feels like they skipped switching to the Orks this week because of how underwhelming the reaction has been to the Space Marines and knew they had to throw down something cool. Also using smoke from the grenade as a support like that is a interesting notion, but all the thrusters and air displacement from his launch/landing would be scattering it all over the place in an entirely different shape. Takes me out of it, minor criticism.

Mmmmm Napalm Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 It's nice to see that his pistol has decorative elements, more so than the other examples of absolver bolt pistols thus far. Unfortunately, the absolver bolt pistols all have a glaring design flaw: there's no ejection port on any of them lol.

Looking forward to seeing one of the most strategically important parts of an ork force next week, grot. He's cool, but I was wondering this myself, surely they could have used the conveniently placed vent on his leg.

Marshal Loss Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 First marine they've previewed from the box that's an exciting reveal, not sure why he wasn't shown first when he was the face of the whole trailer. Overall a really nice sculpt, I don't like the Primaris jump pack flaps and leg thrusters but knew they'd be there. The only thing I that I strongly dislike seemingly along with most others is the smoke connecting him to the base; it looks daft. If the intent was to make it look like residue from a jump then they've failed at that, it looks like he's jumping over a smoke grenade that's just gone off.

No, they made a weird dude with a ball-gag and a "hug me" pose and called it Lemartes. I wanted an upscale of this model.

ThaneOfTas Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 If it weren't for the leg vents I'd be genuinely excited for this one. I can swap the jump packs easily, and I really quite like the rest of the model, finally a decent level of ornamentation, I really like his helmet and Absolver Bolt Pistol. I do t suppose any of you have tried trimming off the leg vents before so that I know what I'm in for?

It takes two cuts from different angles using sharp side cutters/nippers you see commonly recommended for Gundam models (Godhand and other tool brands), some scraping with a knife blade and rounding things out with a sanding stick. It's actually easier than cleaning some of the other Primaris design details.
