2nd company Ultramarine Captain

[Captain Arcturus]

So I am mostly finished with this thing now, but I thought I would show a bit of my progress on here.
The armor at its pep'd stage.

 

[Captain Arcturus]

Finished helmet

Helmet and chest

Almost finished shoulder

Other shoulder

 

[Captain Arcturus]

Belly armor

Backpack is attached

Leg armor mostly done

so that is where I am at right now, let me know what you guts think!

 

[The Ronin]

Looking pretty good. I would have faired out the legs a bit more, but the upper half looks awesome.

 

[Captain Arcturus]

Eh, any bigger and I would not be able to walk.

 

[The Ronin]

Not flared, faired. It means smoothing out the "lines" created by the pep.

 

[Captain Arcturus]

Well the not so bad thing about that is when its all finished with what I have planned for the legs and other parts of the lower half (its a surprise) that's not really gonna be all that noticeable.

Gotcha, lots of details that will hide the lack of finish work. Fair enough, I'd probably do the same thing

Got the loincloth rough draft worked on today.

back view

also here is the shin concept, this is still up in the air so feedback/suggestions are welcome.

 

[Judge Hicksy]

excellent work!!!

 

[Captain Arcturus]

got the front loincloth finished, its been painted and tea dyed. Also finished writing the text on it.

I feel like there is still a bit more I ca do with it, but I dont know yet what to do. Let me know what suggestions you guys have for other stuff I can do to age/weather it up or if you think it is fine as is.

 

[Captain Arcturus]

Ok guys, didnt get too much done with the armor this weekend, I have been EXTREMELY busy, and the bad part is its not gonna let up until after memorial day it looks like. : (
BUT what I did manage to get done I feel to be a achievement/milestone for me.
I have finished glassing/bondoing the armor and just tonight got done sanding the right shin and thigh!
I still have some spot filling to do and some touch up work but for the most part I am gonna say they are done and ready for the painting/detailing stage.
have a look at what I have done so far and what I have left to do.

The cool thing I like about this pic is it looks like someone is in the armor and just chilling out kinda

and with this one @prev, you can see I kinda took your advice with the eagle on the shin, let me know what you think!

[tankman227]

very cool

 

[Solo4114]

THAT is freakin' impressive. I also like that you went with Mk VIII armor. A nice change of pace.

Would look more intimidating if you were not holding the purse! :lol

I could not resist. . .

Looks very nice though.

[Captain Arcturus]

Thanks guys! And I really have to edit that picture, that bag is hanging on the door handle behind me it just looks like I'm holding it lol.

 

[Captain Arcturus]

Ok, a little eye candy guys:

I got both legs rigged up finally, now I have to seal the foam for the heraldry and paint the darn things, also I am pulling off a cool Superman pose

I have no idea what kinda face I am making here

The back cloth is not finished yet, gotta paint the skulls gold still and die the cloth. Then I have to weather/battle damage up both the front and the back cloth still.
