First Stage Converting Space Marine

I got tired of all the warlike marines with weapons and claws. I mean there are times marines do not fight. There are times they pray or they have a briefing. Commanders aren't likely to be on the front line either. I decided I wanted this kind of commander that would oversee the battlefield from the distance, on a hill maybe. This is only the first stage. I thought it would be a good idea to straighten out the battle pose a bit so I had to make the legs and arms straight. The head isn't glued yet as I decided I will copy Azrael helmet's wings and add them to this marines helmet. After gluing the head I intend to put a cloak (and a normal one, covering the shoulders as normal cloaks usually do) on him and add Dark Angels markings on it. I intend to make a small form to press out a big icon of the Dark Angels on the back of the cloak. Well thanks for any advice as this is my first try at converting and I haven't got any experience nor good tools to deal with the greenstuff (no sculpting tool - just Xknifes).

to my understanding, the space marne backpack is what allows the marine to move in the huge bulk of his armour. Also, if you took off his helmet and had him holding it at his side, he would appear more relaxed
