Silver fang Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 So I got a box of Centurions and really didn't like the chest mounted weaponry so I came up with an alternative design. What do you think folks? Centurion 1 http://i763.photobucket.com/albums/xx274/lucianvanguard/Storm%20Angels%20Space%20Marines/IMAG0439_zps86054922.jpg http://i763.photobucket.com/albums/xx274/lucianvanguard/Storm%20Angels%20Space%20Marines/IMAG0440_zpsce91c4e9.jpg http://i763.photobucket.com/albums/xx274/lucianvanguard/Storm%20Angels%20Space%20Marines/IMAG0441_zpscee7d0ee.jpg http://i763.photobucket.com/albums/xx274/lucianvanguard/Storm%20Angels%20Space%20Marines/IMAG0442_zps1ff4ec15.jpg Centurion 2 http://i763.photobucket.com/albums/xx274/lucianvanguard/Storm%20Angels%20Space%20Marines/IMAG0434_zps9e198117.jpg http://i763.photobucket.com/albums/xx274/lucianvanguard/Storm%20Angels%20Space%20Marines/IMAG0436_zps103ce00d.jpg http://i763.photobucket.com/albums/xx274/lucianvanguard/Storm%20Angels%20Space%20Marines/IMAG0437_zpsba009a04.jpg http://i763.photobucket.com/albums/xx274/lucianvanguard/Storm%20Angels%20Space%20Marines/IMAG0438_zps2f83fee8.jpg Centurion 3 http://i763.photobucket.com/albums/xx274/lucianvanguard/Storm%20Angels%20Space%20Marines/IMAG0428_zpsb6109c5e.jpg http://i763.photobucket.com/albums/xx274/lucianvanguard/Storm%20Angels%20Space%20Marines/IMAG0429_zpscbec4521.jpg http://i763.photobucket.com/albums/xx274/lucianvanguard/Storm%20Angels%20Space%20Marines/IMAG0430_zpsa4c9f3da.jpg http://i763.photobucket.com/albums/xx274/lucianvanguard/Storm%20Angels%20Space%20Marines/IMAG0431_zpscf7e09d3.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Armfelt Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 Pretty badass, I'd love to see them painted. Well done! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeremy1391 Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 Centurion number 2 I like the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honda Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 I like the CML mock up a lot, but I think it needs to be set a little wider than current. Right now, the missile box is mounted over the exhaust vent and that isn't going to last very long. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tankenstein_PhD Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 I prefer numbers 2 & 3. Having all the stuff mounted under the arms looks imbalanced IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was considering chopping up the cyclone and mounting each half on the fists but that looked too weird. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olgerth Istaarn Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 Badass. Of course the sprue clippings need to be cleaned up a bit. My favorite is the one with the big honkin' box'o'missiles on his arm (the first one). Also, good to know that GK head fits on the centurion. The symmetrical CML is also a good approach, but it's a bit too "typical" compared to the box'o'missiles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zxyogi Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 Personally think they are a little over the top.....but they your marines,you do as you please! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disruptor_fe404 Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 Not a huge fan of the doubled-up grav cannon and amp combo, but the GKT helmet looks very good on the Centurions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[TA]Typher Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 Great conversions.. I still don't like the models, but you did a great job giving them a more believable feel that all GW's pics don't show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver fang Posted October 22, 2013 Author Share Posted October 22, 2013 Thank you all for the kind words. Yes, they are over the top but even without the centurion suit we are talking about an 8ft tall, genetically engineered, half a ton, super soldier with unlimited lifespan, strength enhancing armour and a mini rocket launcher as his main weapon - nothing OTT about that. I shall endeavour to get them painted or at least started in the next few days but I'm hosting a games weekend for my friends so it may have to wait until next week.

Yosef Hausakluif Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 Great to see some pics of converted Centurions up in this firum, I look forward to seeing them painted in the future. The GK hlems look awesome by the way, and as far as the Cyclone ML's; why not cut the cyclone in half and mount it on either shoulder pad or just behind them and out of the way of the head and exhausts? Overall though, great look; they literally look like walking tanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
