Kir Kanos or Carnor Jax?

By RookieAce, in Star Wars: Imperial Assault

So I have started to work on my first cosplay attempt and need a little help. My costume will be a "Royal Guard Champion" and I am torn between two choises, Kir Kanos or Carnor Jax.

To bring this back to Imperial Assault, I will be painting my Royal Gaurd Champion the same way my costume is. For a reference of the two check out the cover for this issue: http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Crimson_Empire_6

(Carnor Jax is the guy in black, Kir Kanos is the guy on the ground)

The one in Imperial Assault is Carnor Jax, someone somewhere didn't like the name and it got changed to Royal Guard Champion. It's still unique though, and I believe there are prototypes where he's called Carnor Jax.

I'd go with Carnor if you're painting the miniature that way. Going as Kir Kanos is really just going as a Royal Guard.

I personally am planning on painting my RGC as Kir Kanos, as I like him better and would actually define him as a champion of the Empire, rather than Jax who wanted the power for himself.

We painted ours as Kir Kanos

That's how I did mine too. I love the way it looks!

+1 Kir Kanos. Fits the description of Imperial Guard champion best imo

How? The picture is literally Carnor Jax on the card.
