I like the WIPs you have there, and would love to see them completed because of the detail you normally make sure is in your figures.

As for the Warlord figure. I think its the gear & helmet. With him having the armor, I would think if you removed the strap going across his chest that would help. It sort of detracts from the lion's head on his chest. And the combo of a Greco helm with Arthurian armor sort of looks like he picked up pieces here and there. It screams Rebel Leader and not Warlord. If perhaps you could make a helm that incorporated the Lion Theme or Knights, then it would be total winner... the unhelmeted head is great and I can see him as some sort of Space Knight.

Waysider X is a great custom. I agree that is a perfect use for that armor. It almost looks like a robotic lion on his chest.

My guess on the rest for why your stalling is that you don't like to paint. :D Seriously they all look great so far. If their design or color palette bore you find some key design element in any of their looks to focus on. If I feel like I'm treading familiar water I'll look at armor, sculpting, or camo scheme or some other facet of the figure to try something new. Hell sometimes creating just a new weapon will enough of a jolt to make me finish the figure.

Oozes pure awesome. WIPS are more like gems just needing their polishing because their facets are already there.

Send me his cape and I can fur it up nicely for you. Choice of white, golden, or dark brown.
