MOC: Crown Training Pell

[UsernameMDM]

Here is my attempt at making a realistic impulse style set. I would love for a set like this to come out. I tried to make something useful on its own and that had useful MOCing parts if taken apart. Comments and critiques welcome:

Training Pell, knight and armor/weapon stand:

In action:

Unarmored pell:

Empty armor/weapon stand:

Piece count (23 if you include the visor helm as a part of the minifig):

Looks great, probably one or two pieces more than the average impulse set, but not far off. I certainly would buy it for the parts alone

What a great impulse idea 'UsernameMDM' !

Might just make one of these myself for my son's castle collection !

Cool little MOC and I'm a conformist! !

[ziljin]

That would be great.

Very nice MOC impulse UsernameMDM.

The parts count is about right, and its a good selection of them aswell.

nice job!

Hmm, I might have to borrow these ideas for my castle's barracks. Great idea!

Indeed, you'd probably have to lose the crossbow and make the 'armor stand' with less pieces. But other than that: an excellent idea for an impulse set that could instantly be released by TLG. Well done.

Nice little set, definitely more playability than The Knight.

Nice impulse MOC. Too much accessories but still looks great.

I would replace the helmet w/ the mask (I do not know the technical name of it) with a single piece helmet. That would seem more economical from a business point of view.

Thanks for the comments everyone. To lower the piece count, I could replace the armor/weapon rack with a barrel or small crate to put weapons in and the soldier could just wear the armor.

Sweet!
