I like it, he looks like he will navigate ANY terrain to reach his quarry... and kill them. Good job.

... Re-rolls ALL rolls to hit!

Base coat applied. Now comes the tough decision.



Do I continue with the current color scheme, as seen in the original post, or do I use this newer simpler color scheme I made 3 days ago after watching Starship Troopers for the first time in 5 years.

[Rakuall]

That thing's terrifying. I'd go with the simpler scheme, the Yellow makes the model too busy.

Yeah, the more natural color scheme (in the foreground of the group shot) is much more appealing, I think.

Cool conversion--I wonder if the head looks a little under-sized. But otherwise, very nifty.

Cheers.

i want to see it painted. it looks freakin sweeeeet.
also, since you asked, i'd change the scheme.

[tanagra]

I spent the majority of this day painting this bad boy. I wanted to get this one just right...






And for the record, I attempted the red and yellow scheme initially, but it just didn't seem to fit on the big model as well as it did on the small one. I'll have to repaint that gant.

Love it! Cant wait to see more conversions from you. i like the style. this color scheme is much better.
