My FLGS has a surplus of the 25th anniversary minis and seeing your conversion makes me want to pick one up. Looking forward to seeing some progress on it.

@Marovian: thank you sir, the paint job is airbrushed on with only the scuffed metal areas being dry brushed on, I tried painting my CF blue onto a tank and it failed so I investe in an airbrush and will never look back at painting tank different.

@Fireangel: I can not thank enough for you following my thread, cruelly gives me a little more boost to get all my stuff completed.

@Crassius47, Shortsonfire79, Khranger: the LE model is a fantastic model, as soon as I opened the box I instantly thought of 3 conversions, another Cortez/Kantor and Sgt Huron Grimm from the Rynns world novel. But I settled with making another Kantor, but I humberly thank you 3 concerning the Kantor conversion.

@Greeble and Brother Vogt: Threads are always missed and not every thread is people taste, so I thank you both for taking the time to look through and leave comments, more pictures will be following very soon.

Well again thank you to you all for looking and commenting.

As a bit if an update, I'm painting a captain model up as a count as Sicarus as I want a tac squad to have a guerrilla feel to use infiltrate rule.

But the pictures will be up in the next two days of captain Grimm...yes Sgt Huron Grimm of 2nd companys 1st squad was promoted as the new 5th company's captain after Rynns world.

Nicely animated and good paint job. I'd have been tempted to remove some of the templar iconograpghy, such as the templar cross purity seal and swap for regular. Maybe even the one on top of the pole - if needs be for a regular fist. Otherwise good.

Lovely model and a great paint job. If I could, I would offer some kind of consructive advice, but I don't think you need it!

@Marovian: thank you again for your comment fella, if you have any thing you wanna say mate, honestly just let me know, I take all critisism politely and respectfully because it helps us all grow in what we are being 'constructively' critisised about.

Outstanding as usual, reminds me quite a lot of the Inquisitor Marine, Artemis, in terms of posing... Intentional?

Good: scorch on the combi melta barrel, the drum mag. I like all your reds, what color is the highlight on the red.

Dont like the ork head (are you done yet? Teeth are good, skin is just really dark.) and I dont like the spatter on the chain bayonette, Needs to be brighter blood iMHO.

good looking sternguard, i like the look of the forgeworld armour variants and the writing on the armour, the running chap with the combi melta is my favourite, lots of inspiration for me :P

Oh these guys look brilliant. Love the blue on all of them. My favorite is the one with the plain chest. The lack of chest eagle really looks nice. Freehand bits on him are nice too.

Any pictures of the guy in white thats in the background of the first five pictures? Thats an interesting looking mini as well.
