I've only needed to do a very little bit of GS work, which was to rebuild the shoulders after I repositioned the arms to my liking. I'll pop a picture up today so you can see what I've done. I'd love your input!Cpt.Harrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02160471591498226778noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4752379964175669812.post-20719349493239126472011-09-03T15:36:34.391-07:002011-09-03T15:36:34.391-07:00That sounds cool.

Before they did Haz cadians, they did them as normal special weapon cadians in the same style, only diffrence being they come without heads.<br /><br />It's no probs using each other to bounce off it just shows we think alike. <br /><br />I like the idea behind Kell have you used the original model? I have done a model based on Colour Sergeant Bourne out of Zulu, and I am thinking of using the stats of Sergeant Bastonne. Not sure yet.Dave Clarkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03793718214998379963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4752379964175669812.post-2322332785608792412011-09-03T12:33:38.828-07:002011-09-03T12:33:38.828-07:00Oh no Commissar Dave, not again!

Though I must admit, seeing how good your Praetorian conversions turned out, did finalise my decision to do some myself!<br /><br />I know I could have used the plasma guns from the Cadian sprues, but I wanted them to look like they were using them in 'rifle drill' - as if the plasma-rifle were the Praetorian weapon of choice.<br /><br />I do have a nice conversion for my Praetorian representation of Jarren Kell that I'll be showing off as soon as the greenstuff sets - watch this space!Cpt.Harrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02160471591498226778noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4752379964175669812.post-90953596595192737112011-09-03T12:09:41.397-07:002011-09-03T12:09:41.397-07:00Now Capt Harris have you been stealing ideas from ...Now Capt Harris have you been stealing ideas from me? Good on you mate you have done a great job I really like what you have done, and the tank looks great. You could have saved yourself a little bit of time as the normal special teams for the Cadians come without the heads, so there's no chopping involved. But you have done a great job.<br /><br />To be honest I wouldn't really name it, I don't name mine. But what I have started doing is putting the Praetoria transfer on mine. Which you can get from the Forgeworld Imperial Guard transfer sheet.Dave Clarkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03793718214998379963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4752379964175669812.post-85057187508294895782011-08-30T03:26:39.803-07:002011-08-30T03:26:39.803-07:00thanks for the suggestions guys, they've given...thanks for the suggestions guys, they've given me some great ideas!

...Lovely job on the vets, they look just the part!<br /><br />For the tank, how about Hammer of Justice, or Hammer of the Throne? If any tank is a hammer, its gonna be an Executioner for dealing with those pesky terminators!Col.Gravishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04146317077934073291noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4752379964175669812.post-27155422648648557442011-08-29T05:43:03.107-07:002011-08-29T05:43:03.107-07:00How about Pride of the Empire.

It is a little long and if you plan to put it on the tank than maybe not so good. <br /><br />With all the plasma glow, maybe Aurora could work.Honey Beeginningshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12087097855044996349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4752379964175669812.post-87885232768397801722011-08-29T01:39:58.324-07:002011-08-29T01:39:58.324-07:00Call it the 'Catechism of Hate' or somethi...Call it the 'Catechism of Hate' or something like that.
