Update. She's finally done.

Enjoy.








Okay, those of us who went to Games Day got a limited edition marine commander holding a thunder hammer with both hands. I was ready to just give mine away, until someone challenged me to use it to make a Black Widow HQ model. Since there were copies of the new space marine codex for us to peruse through, I quickly settled on the best special character for me to use when I transition the Widows over to using the new marine codex. Vulkan He'stan. Wait, you say all my free flamers and multi-meltas will count as twin liked? Why, yes, please, and may I have some more?

Anyway, he has a lot of weapons to mimick, so I went diving through my bitz drawers. The Relic Blade was easily enough represented by a Grey Knight Nemisis Force Weapon, and what better to represent a 3+ invulnerable save then a big 'ol storm shield? Since her hands are already filled, I mounted the heavy flamer over her shoulder, Ad-Mech style, with a converted devastator backpack to hold the promethium. I also gave her a leftover banner from a commander box set, which will give some room for some nice freehand.


Anyway, enjoy the pics. She's primed and ready to be painted at this point. As always, click on the thumbnail to see a larger pic.

Very nice - although I think it'd be pretty cool to have the heavy flamer mounted on his shield.

That is very nice.

I like it!

This is a great model and i would love to see it painted, please keep the posts up!

I can't see see the pic, but it sounds great

She's finally done.

Enjoy.
