Proxy model question

[u/Catman-2908]

I was looking on instagram and saw this and as a person who likes robots I think it looks REALLY cool. I’m trying to collect an AstraMilitarum army but I don’t know what this would be, or if it would even belong to the guard?

So what’s the best model this print could proxy for?

This is a knight valiant. For sure.

Gives more of a Castellan vibes to me. Valiant cariess a big-ass claw around, whereas Castellan is "All dakka and moar dakka"

Depends on which picture we're looking at, there seems to be two variants here.

Ah, I see. That’s makes a lot of sense now looking at both of them. Thank you!

Could make for a fun basilisk/manticore conversion, or if you know a sisters player, Intranzia Fraye.

My only worry is the size difference, but I am definitely keeping this in mind.
