Not much more to say.
Not sure what I'll be using this guy as. Originaly bought him just for the Finecast wings to use on a Chapter Master I was gunna build...
Saw him laying there today and couldn't resist doing a conversion.
Hope you like it.

looks pretty cool.
But I have no idea what it could be. Maybe a Honour Guard/Command Squad dude with Storm Shield?

Already have the rest of my army (well, majority anyway) built.
I'll think of something though... I might even pimp him out and take him as my chapter master.

Not a fan I'm afraid, it looks like he's merrily skipping along the battlefield. The arms badly need some kind of repose IMO.

Thanks for the feedback guys. Appreciate it
@Grimtuff I'm pretty happy with the pose, considering most of my armies models already have that "CHARGE!!!" thing going on.
Doubt the pictures show, but he looks quite sinister equiped with that axe and shield pulling that face as he gracefully strides into battle!

Nice job! Looks like a great Chaos conversion as well - Night Lords anyone?

Both arms came with the model. Just had to cut them off and reposition with a hobby knife.
Harder than it sounds. The left arm is connected to his hair, thus making it hard to trim without losing too much detail - though nothing a smidge of GS won't fix :3
The axe and shield are both from the Exalted Chaos Lord Finecast Blisterpack from GW.
