Second Thoughts

Here's the pics of the Watchmaster, as promised. Now, I'm not so sure about this melta-bomb conversion. The strap doesn't look like it's under tension from a heavy bomb. I'm thinking about popping it off and starting again...

I gotta think about this one, folks.

  1. I see what you are saying... Maybe sling it under his right arm across the shoulder, just under the sword? Otherwise your DG are gonna look sick. I'm jealous! Keep it flowing bro!

  2. That's not a bad idea dude- I'll do something with it tonight. I need to get him primed and the trenchcoat airbrush basecoated so I can paint him up during tomorrow's Hobby Night

  3. Looks to me you're running into the same problem I always do when using the standard-issue meltabomb on infantry. The basic issue is that it's huge. One way I was thinking about is to cut off the handle so that it looks like a cannister. Then fix it beneath the backpack horizontally, very much like early-WW2 German gas mask containers. Haven't tried it myself though

  4. That's a pretty good idea, too. One way or another I'm going to settle this one tonight.
