Sovereign is more an idea than a man of flesh, when and where the Crown calls, he appears out of nowhere, preferring a head-on charge over stealth and diplomacy. Let's face it - Sovereign is the master of the blade and the MKI Albion blaster and not a great talker.

One piece sculpt from James van Schaik. Ready for Salute if the metal gods in Birmingham are favorable! Red is a nightmare to photograph!

True British Steel - looks great and i can't wait to paint up this particular Redcoat!

Yep, just saw this guy on the Facebook page. Now to find a Dr. Who figure that counts as Cronin to be a sidekick

You may want to look at Heresy, Hasslefree and Crooked Dice...

Interesting. I was hoping for something a little more Captain Britain and a little less Rogue Trader myself. Oh well we can't love them all.

For me this is a great visual concept, not least because the idea of an eternal/immortal solider is a strong one in comics (Unknown Soldier; Eternal Warrior; Astro City's Old Soldier; Squadron Supreme's the Soldier; Adam Eterno; Cosmic Warrior etc).

Also this has a feel that reminds me of characters from the Valiant comic and especially 2000 AD, which are both very British in their take on heroes.

It could have great cross-over potential as well (AE Bounty/Sci-Fi etc).

Really REALLY nice!

My ONLY criticism is the colour scheme - no white (other than his hair) - the concept/idea is sound, and unlike BM I am relieved he's not carbon copy of other British Super Hero's.

Must be a British thing. (shrugs)

Well, you know how we are!

What, being right - definitely

& This.

It somehow also makes me think of Blakes 7 - I guess the Rogue Trader aesthetic is pretty close to that too.

He's got a whole Swashbuckler/Napoleonic vibe to him - considering ALL 40k imagery is ripped off from other sources, you could argue a Games Workshop "lookalike" about most models from every miniatures range out there . . . . .

TAKING IT IN CONTEXT as a Super-Hero Miniature, its fresh and exciting - whilst being accessible to the casual observer too.

Another triumph IMHO.

Right. I think this guy plays his part well and looks good at it.

My little gripe is his "toes" that stick out from his boots. Does he have talons?

Those are standard "Dredd" Boots, Mike McMahon started it all off and its become a standard of British Comic Artists LoL!

Mine is definitely going to get an Admiral Nelson hat...
