Halbarad Dúnadan: Planning the Conversion

With less than a fortnight to go before the Show, and since I am unable to spend any productive time at the bench today, I thought I would get a head-start on planning the major issues to be addressed in converting Pegaso's 90mm Templar Sergeant, 1240 (90-38) to Halbarad Dúnadan.

1. Conversion of boots to riding boots, thereby eliminating mail chausses. Add spurs.
2. Elimination of shield fittings molded on figure.
3. Sculpt missing portions of cloak.
4. Repositioning of hands to depict gripping a staff.
5. Sculpt a new scabbarded sword or work with kit-provided pieces.
6. Rework surcoat to a more suitable tunic-style garment--including the addition of sleeves.
7. Remove all in-situ religious items.
   

Full review of base figure to follow once I have it in-hand.
