There’s a cosplay suit that took after one of 8th edition’s most iconic units on the tabletop. Check out this Smash Captain with the Angel’s Wings.
Submitted by cosplayer Rick Chan, he’s made a true work of art and brought it to cosplay. Being one of 8th edition’s more powerful units, this Blood Angels Smash Captain outfit has turned some heads. Take a closer look for yourself!
By the Blood of Sanguinius: A Smash Captain Cosplay You Have to See
Taking the form of a normal Space Marine, this Smash Captain cosplay nailed every last detail. From the blood drop filigree on the platelegs to an exact rendition of a thunder hammer, it looks like this guy just stepped out of the grimdark universe to tell us how his day was going.
The armor’s pauldron even has a prayer to the Emperor inscribed on it. Let’s just hope he doesn’t get the black rage while we’re next to him.
From purity seals to even a jump pack that looks like the Angel’s Wing relic, this cosplayer actually won some pretty awesome competitions in the cosplay world. The costume is amazing. But what really pushes it over the hump is all of the minor details thrown in. (The same can be said for painting minis).
Rick decided to dress up as one of the biggest badasses in 8th edition for good reason. This is the last thing countless Knights and Mortarions have seen before a quick demise.
What do you think about this amazing work of art? Are you working on a cosplay costume right now? What’s your favorite Chapter in 40k?
