As a bit of a distraction from chaos and orks.
I painted this guy up over the weekend, still a few bits to do, but he's nearly there,
Feedback and suggestions most appreciated.

Looks great! Never would have thought something so simple would change a model so dramatically.

Hmm. I'm a fan. Now get him on a fancy base

Fancy enough for you?
I figure if I'm never going to field him in a game, then I might as well go mad .
He's only tacked in place until I finish the base, and he won't have his gaming base

That'll do tomcat31, that'll do. I may have to do the same with some of my unlikely-to-be-used marines. Looking forward to seeing it all together

I like the headswap. Its something I have to do also since I carelessly damaged the wingtip of one of his helmets when I was clipping him off his sprue. Ive got a great head lined up though with wild hair. I want to try to catch the essence of the Lion.

i just used what i had lying around, I've still got his helmet. its going to look great hanging from a chain on my iron warriors land raider.

Need advice on where to position him

Have you tried turning him about 90 degrees on top of the ridge? Like he's on top of the tallest point looking out, surveying the battlefield?

If it's a hard choice between A and B then go with B imo.

I think that the base is WAY to big for him.

It's intended as a display base, not a gaming base, I'm thinking of having a couple of possessed csm charging up the hill at him.
Something like this.
