Two guns: Better than one
Alright, I put a little more work in on this and I think it's getting there. There's some small detail stuff left to do, but first I'll make with the pictures.
Urk's now got a loincloth on and a 'strap' going over his back which supports the Bosspole. The boss is rocking a matching (mostly) dakkagun on the other arm now.
For your viewing pleasure, the old Marine sizeup:
And an over-the shoulder of the Marine's view:
Now, like I said, there's just little stuff left. The gauntlets (particularly the white styrene band on the inside of the arm) feel a little bare, though I may just add more rivets to compensate. Urk's hat needs a skull icon or something right in the middle of the front to make it look a bit more like a proper Commissar hat. Both gun assemblies come off right now, so I need to permanently attach them and get the belts of ammunition sitting right in their respective holes. I need to work a little bit more on the banner, particularly the spiked knuckle things on the back, to try and make them look a little more fitting.
Then there's also the matter of the base. I think he'll get a 60mm so he can properly count as a Dreadnought should I choose to use him like that from time to time.
Anyway, getting there. I wouldn't mind input on the littler details, though this is where my 'Marneus Calgar' comparison ends. He's not getting a cape or bionic eye or anything to try and match Calgar, cause that's not the point of him.
One last thing:
