Iron Captain From Iron Trenchers – Vulture-Bonded Commander of the Trenches
He doesn't need a scout when the sky does his watching. Iron Captain From Iron Trenchers by Black Cobra Miniatures is a towering trench commander in a tall pointed helm and heavy scale armour, leaning on a long halberd while a great vulture spreads its wings across his shoulder. Every plate, chain and feather says this officer has outlasted a hundred bombardments.
This listing is the vulture version of the captain, with the bird perched on his left shoulder. He makes a striking leader or hero for Trench Crusade proxies and any grimdark trench-warfare holy-war skirmish.

Size
Approximately 44 mm from the feet to the top of the helm (heroic 28/32 mm scale). With the vulture's raised wing he stands about 56 mm tall overall, and the wingspan and halberd reach about 48 mm across. Supplied with a 28 mm magnetic round base. Models over 50 mm may be hollowed internally for print quality, reduced weight, and more affordable pricing.
Print Quality
Layer height determines detail and finish: lower microns mean thinner layers for smoother surfaces and finer details, while higher microns balance speed, strength, and cost while maintaining excellent quality for gameplay.
-
Tabletop Quality (50 microns) – Ideal for durable, high-resolution 3D resin prints perfect for wargaming and RPGs. Offers sharp details, robust flexibility, and minimal visible layers—great for minis that see real table action without fragility.
