Basically the title. Assuming it was on a base of the right size, would you accept this model as a (Ynnari) Farseer Skyrunner?

It is really cool execution man.

But I'm a bit of a stickler for WYSIWYG so I would accept that as a farseer with folochu's wing if it was part of my army.

It would break immersion for me if he wasn't mounted on some sort of hoverboard/bike to be called a biker personally.

But if you and your opponents are happy I don't see why not. man

Too immersion breaking for me personally. That is definitely a mandrake with wings. Cool paintjob though.

No because it's obviously has nothing similar to farseers and is not on a jetbike.

Gotta say it has nothing at all to tie it in any way to a Farseer. More importantly it's another actual 40K miniature with wings. That's pretty immersion breaking for me.

PS: You understand we don't have to "accept it" for you to use it though. That's up to your real world opponent. I don't think a Tournament Organizer would let that qualify though in most instances.

Yeah, I had wondered if it was too far from the Farseer aesthetic. Mostly just trying to think of something to use it as.

Oh well, it's my own fault for making models for HQs that don't exist.

Thanks anyway, guys.
