I wasn't a fan of the heavy sentinel, but that little guy is fantastic. I'll be adding some of those to my SecDef force for MEdge, I think...

That's the best summary of Kurze's contributions to the Heresy I've seen yet.

Oh yes, I'd like to see what you do with them. I always enjoy your conversions.

Yeah, Kurze has the MOST complete character arc in the entire Heresy...

6500 copies... yeah no. I may as well just download the covers and make my own e-book.

With blackjack! And hookers!

In fact forget the blackjack.

What were talking about again?

Hey, at least it isn't Batman.

Dysartes is just trying to pick a fight. We've got an "angry old men" thing.

Edit: Whoops. Meant to quote Racerguy180. Guess that old brain got me.

And we're back to yet moar marines...

Siege-Breaker Consul.

He seems to be pretty happy with his Pokedex

I like him. Holo on the terminal is a nice touch.

I feel like he probably should be in mk3 armor, and that he’s easy to proxy with parts from the 30k tank crew. Still a nice model

Is that a lil mark 6 marine hologram?

Ooh I like the helmet! Other than that, the model is.. a bit odd I guess? Like, he almost makes for decent Techmarine fodder, but something is still missing..

That copypaste of an epic scale tac marine on his thingamajig, not a fan

Nice looking Model. The Mk6 armour is fine.

Here in my City, Horus Heresy seems to run nice. The local Warhammer Store now gets a weekly refill for Legions Imperalis of two Core Sets and two detachment Sets (both with the same Unit). The space for 28mm Horus Heresy Stuff also got doubled and they get one Core Box also weekly.

I'm really digging the model, aside from that thing up his nose. Thankfully, I rarely use bare heads so it won't be an issue.

I assume he's just come from sieging Arrakis.

Didn't associate the model with the role of demolitions expert, but that of a communications or tactical officer. Still a nice model though.

I suppose he'd be a great model for Kill Team or BSF, if they were available in 30K flavours.

Are we sure it’s not a Duel Disc?

It’s time to duel

I like the model a lot, but my first thought was "That's a really nice Legion Delegatus!"

Yeah, I though he was a master of signals given the big datapad thing.

It's a really good model and I will probably pick it up to replace my own half-converted master of signals.

I like it, but the tube up his nose makes me think of Gerrard from Peep Show

What is the little hologram supposed to be exactly? Why is it so pixelated?

It's a dead marine buried in rubble.

I first thought it was a fortification of some description, but it might also be a marine (on the other end of a Zoom call?)

One of the pictures you can see it's the head & shoulders of a beakie marine, he's just pixelated out below the chest for some reason.

I assumed it was a staticy holo-call.

Nice looking mini overall, but hard to tell what role he fills at a glance. Could go a few ways, but that’s not a bad thing IMHO. Could be tweaked to be a number of different consouls..

I think it’s supposed to be a massive stone statue that’s being built into some defensive line somewhere and he’s planning to smash it.

Well, I think a siege master is essentially a master of signals dedicated to siege warfare- this role requires coordinating large quantities of artillery with assault troops and managing attrition. That is basically a logistical role unless they need to lead an assault directly.

Problem is a lot of Consuls are basically just Dudes.
Librarians, Forge Lords, Heralds, and Chaplains all have something stand out about them and most of the others are pretty standard character guy.

What are those cutout sections on his pauldrons and armor, with the corrugated rubber supposed to be?

Weird.

They could be speakers, because there is also a place to plug in your chunky headphones at the center of the shoulderpad
