How, exactly, are those conversions? They look like store-bought models to me...

Your GK commanders look great, but your capes could use a little bit of extra work, they look kind of flat. Everything else is fantastic though, loving the two-hander.

i believe this whole heartedly.

IMO, a conversion shouldn't scream "THIS IS A CONVERSION". It should look like the model came in a kit, and you did very little to no work on it.

Really, until you showed the side pic of the shield, I couldn't see anything that I didn't think was GW made. Still not certain how the sword or Libby are converted- is the Libby's cloak GS?

A lot of that may have to do with your brilliant paintjob, too, Clausel.

Wow. Thanks a lot for the kind words. Very much appreciated.

but your capes could use a little bit of extra work

yeah I know. The ultramarine is the first one I made a cape for in GS and the Grey knight is the secound try. Its really hard to do right.
is the Libby's cloak GS?

Yes it is. And about the color. I have heard a lot people whod not quite didnt like it. I think its fine and different.

Again: Thank you so much for the kind words
