In progress?  I think it looks "almost complete"!  Gorgeous weathering!  :thumbsup:

Your painting is excellent as always. I just feel no Templar is complete without after-market legs. The legs & hip from a DA Raider work suprisingly well as a base to work from; those clown feet & legs make the mini so static (given there's not a lot of mobility in the arms either).

That's why the base at the feet it has been removed hoping on a better pose.I want to save an original sculpt by the way-even if far from my interest btw,a lance of this omnii with some kitbashed  version modifified and maybe different kind of legs.I don't find the legs itself unpleasant,but the posture.

I just finished a Templar yesterday which I might post on here at some stage. I see you went with the "England Flag" look as well.

What do you think of the model? Personally, I was less than impressed. Too top heavy and a little bit gaudy. Still, beast of a mech and yours is looking ace as well.
PM me if you live in Perth Western Australia and are after a game. Please!

all in all it is a nica miniature, and as you said, probably very flamboyant and extreme as a sculpture, but for this very reason I saw it come with a challenge opportunity.In my personal opinion it is a must to have to paint it with separate arms to be able to exalt the characteristics in the best way.
