One of the first models I ever got was the Captain Tycho model, which I admittedly ruined by dunking him into some gold paint (well, I may as well have done...). How could I not have a Tycho somewhere in my army..?

But there was a snag. Considering his fluff (angry, bloodthirsty, raging etc), the GW model looks as though they shoved a broom handle up his backside! I needed to fix this travesty...


Enter the multipurpose Sanguinary Guard (again)!

Firstly, the face was easy. Simply put a blob of GS onto his cheekbone, and flatten it out. Simples! The rest was to simply cut-and-paste bits together...
Paint-wise, I decided to go with red armour (shock! no gold?) simply because 
A: I dont see every BA captain in gold armour
B: I wanted him to "fit in" with regular squads. As it is, I often use him for a Sternguard Sergeant...

but without further ado:
The Phantom is reborn!

sooo, one more of the main command crew to go, well, one more "live" member of the command crew. There is one other chap as well...
