Thanks to Alex for the lictor (right leg and arm converted by his friend). Arms and head were positioned myself. Base I got in another trade (branch lictor is jumping off of was my addition).

If images are broken I'll provide a link.

Getting back to the pics, though: That's a very find paintjob on a beautiful model. As a side note: Well photographed!

Nice work, it looks like the pose worked out for you!

Thanks! I had a game early Sunday in which I wanted to field a full brood of lictors. It was also a very inspiring conversion.

Lictors can be extremely good, I learned. They managed to kill an entire tactical squad, their rhino, and nearly ate the remnants of another tactical squad but wiffed on fleet and assault rolls by 1" and were dakka'd to death. Still, they made more than their points worth and drew a lot of fire. Colour me impressed!

Lictors aren't good you obviously shouldn't play them when I'm using tactical marines......
