Hello everybody,

I have restarted my RG army and have begun with a Assault squad sergant armed with Thunderhammer (long live the AS tactica here on SoC)
The problem is i can't decide which pose to give him, or more precisly which set of legs.

So please help me out here brothers

Pose 1 (assault legs)

Pose 2 (commander legs)

The size of the Thunderhammer head is not to big as the pictures make it apear btw.
I plan on giving him a BP holster and an extra purity seal after i have decided on the pose.

Thanks in advance

I vote pose 1.

Pose 2 would be good for holding a spear or swinging the hammer for a crushing blow and needing a secure stance.

Pose 1 has the better "storming forward" look.

Pose 2 looks better cuz from the picture in pose 1 he looks like the hammer is to heavy for him. Though on pose 2 I
would re-position the hammer a wee bit.

Pose 2. But i think that hammer is too big. RG are lithe, stealthy and silent. That guy looks noisy ;)

Pose two has a much more dynamic appearance, it has the sharp angle difference makes it look more powerful, so my votes for that.

can't wait to see how it turns out.

I'd choose pose 1. Always prefer a charging mode :)

But i'd make some changes to the TH position. The hammer head should be behind instead of at the front. That is what people do when charging with big weapon - to build the momentum.

Thanks for all the reply's guys.

I guess it is setteld then: pose two, though i wonder if it will still fit in with his squad with all their charging poses.
what do you guys think?

LordAK, you made an fine suggestion there and i will reposition the thunderhammer and maybe the hands aswell

I will also shave it down a bit so that the hammer doesn't look so massive anymore.

I hope to finish the moddeling on this guy by the end of the weekend so watch this space!

Thanks for the help brothers!
