Swing it!

The mhorrimarine is coming together nicely. The only major thing left is how to position the scythes blade. Originally I posed it pointing forwards, Dave Taylor suggested it might look better pointing backwards. 

I can't decide so I pinned it to be easy to swing around and snapped a few shots of it pointing in every direction. What do you folks think?


Forward


Inward


Backwards


Outwards

  1. I like the outwards position, but if it was brought forward slightly, more at a diagonal.

  2. I'm leaning towards inwards. I think it frames the model nicely.

    Cheers

  3. Hmm Not sure if I prefer inwards or backwards. It think if the scythe was a bit less vertical and angled more towards the enemy it may help a bit with the pose.

    Couple of thoughts, hope you don't mind ;)

    Those nails on the shoulders are really cool are you thinking of adding any to the hooded head? Also what are your plans for the back of the figure, I think a cool cloak like the CSM Terminator Lord would be cool. Keep up the excellent work!

  4. I think inwards is the best, although back looks good as well.

  5. Thanks for the input boys and girls!

    Right now it's leaning toward backwards - it feel a bit less like he's striking a pose and aligns with the power generator on the shaft.
