    “Ya, so?”
    “I drew it free-hand.”

    The first time I’ve actually seen a 3rd Legion Marine that actually looks like one.
    Also, just the small curve to the sword you added made it look so much better.

    Not sure if you have already filmed the others but an untapped potential of usable heads for marines is actually age of sigmar, I got the idea from white dwarf but its actually clever they have alot of long hair models that might make your job easier
    (Especially if you look in the choas side)
    Love the model though!

    OOoo! I used many of the same blood angels bits when converting my warband! they split off from the emperor's children not long after the heresy and share similar asthetics to their heresy era armor. I picked up many of these same paints prepping to paint them, but they are still sitting in storage.

  • @lowlygrinder2977
    @lowlygrinder2977 2 года назад +1

    A good head for Emperor's Children is the long haired head from the ETB Chaos Warrior's kit, in fact as much as I hate those bare heads for Chaos Warriors, I picture them being more bearded, a lot of them make great heads for traitor guardsmen or cultists, heads like the one with the lips shriveled back especially, but really any of the heads would work, and to be honest I find most of the traitor guard heads to be a bit lackluster, most of them just look like normal disheveled Guard.

  • @alphonsecoco3
    @alphonsecoco3 2 года назад +2

    This is amazing!! The hair, tabard, and chest fitting are all amazing conversion works, and that freehand is envious. My only true critique would be the face. I think the reikland settled too much in the cheeks, making him look guant faced and a little grizzled, as opposed to a beautiful warrior-artist
