It looks great man. My only concern is the talons arm. You should remove it and cut the terminator wrist back a ways. then add the talon back on.

Pretty much what Midnightdeathblade said. That right arm is too long, but it should be a big problem to solve.
Compare the original models arm length to get a feel for where his hand should be in the Talon, which will then give you an idea of how much to cut off.
Also, you might want to get the modelling side of things finished before painting models. It can be a pain to have to take apart a fully-painted model!

No one wants to see your gorilla armed Abaddon.
Why don't you stop posting 40k pics on dakka and get back to work!!!
P.S. your new haircut is ridiculous.

I wondered that, but the talon hand wrist is mounted to the termie arm where the wrist is... It's like the scale of the old model va new is different, because if I cut the termie arm back, then it's like his wrist is midways up his forearm....I'll look at it again hough and see what I can do

Yeah, his arm is a bit too long. I like the rest, though. Nice job!

The 'wrist' on a power fist is half way up the wearer's forearm, since much of that forearm is supposed to be inside the gauntlet. It's a bit like those giant foam 'pointing finger' hands that people sometimes wear at sporting events. Otherwise, nice model.
