I don\'t like \'em - but that\'s just me - they could look GREAT painted up though...

I\'m not sure what it IS about \'em I don\'t like either. I thought I liked the staff-bolters when I first saw them, but I thought the quality looked a bit shoddy in the close-ups...

Maybe it\'s just all the photo?
But they don\'t look BAD anyway - I just don\'t like them especially. :p

Or maybe it\'s cos I can see again (sort of) lol

Good looking, but there are 2 things I dont like about them... the helmets look too bulky (not elegant) and the Halberds blades are very dorky looking (again not elegant), other than that I think they are great conversions. The reason I say this is that these Custodes guys are like the super heroes of the emperor and should have all the nice Bling... :cool:

I like em but i don\'t. They just look to chunky for my taste, then again almost anythign GW is chunky. The polearm Bolters are neat but they bother me with how wide the blades are.

It doesn\'t help that you picked the goofiest-looking of all GW\'s goofy Space Marine concepts to sculpt a squad of. I mean your sculpting ain\'t at all bad but they still look like the hood ornament on a Studebaker.

I personally like them, and think a lot of people will be changing opinions when they wee them painted.

Your painting style will suit a squad like this too!

nehh they don\'t realy do it for me either...alot op people doing custodians make the same \"mistake\'\' by using new bolters for the guardian spears they use...these guys r the most ancient and trusted mofo\'s human kind has in 40k...thats why i went through the trouble of getting an old old bolter to make my custodian :]

I\'m not so much worried about Godwyn-pattern bolters (Or whatever version they are) as according to the fluff, new STC\'s are being (re-)discovered all the time, so it would make sense that the Custodes would have EITHER the newest and best, or the oldest and most reliable equipment :p

But I still think these could end up looking good - they\'re just not figures I would be interested in myself.
