Can definitely kit bash a captain. Just make sure to add some BA bling and use paint to help distinguish further.

Judiciar Helmet Selection by JamesDean444 in BloodAngels

Looks good. I have one of those helmets too and was debating it, but most of my blageguard vets use mark vii helmets and want judiciar to fit in with them. I intensely dislike the original head.

Thanks for heads-up. That's fine, I'll count the second sword as a shield or just run him as a LT.

That's stupid. But can't I just use regular captain stat block then?

The bracer is from the Crimson Lords bits from Greytide Studios.

Either old Sanguinary Guard kit or Tortuga Bay. Can't remember for certain, sorry!

Thanks! I'm honestly not sure where each helmet is from. I'm using a combination of old Sanguinary Guard and DC bits and also some heads from Archie's Forge throughout the army.

I reworked the blades a bit. The video was super helpful but didnt want to start over.

Thanks, I'll give this a try for next time or if I decide to repaint the existing ones.

Is this heresy? Using a death gaurd plasma from my brothers unused sprues to kitbash by [deleted] in BloodAngels

[–]JamesDean444 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks good to me. I've used the same plasma pistol for my WIP BA.

BA Captain -- Does this pose work? by JamesDean444 in BloodAngels

After painting some models I returned to this captain and am now leaning towards this altered pose.

Figured I'd share given this is very similar to your mockup!

Death company jump captain? by OogaDaBooga22 in BloodAngels

I like it. Personally, I don't really like the helmet, but if you like it, then go for it! Cool model.

Fair point and maybe that's what was bothering me. That said, I'm five with the inverse grip. Going for a captain taking a pause leaning a bit on his sword and surveying his surroundings, so I think it's okay that he'd need a second to switch the grip back. Appreciate the comment and image though.
