Wasn't really sure where to go with the title if I'm honest, was trying to be descriptive but might have come off confusing.

Anyway, more to the point, I'm pretty new to modelling things and whatnot - had a few questions about this one. I basically want to do a model for my Night Lords of a bloke standing with a Space Marine scale revolver (or similarish weapon, not fussed really) pointing at his own head. Anyone know where I could acquire a bit to fit the bill, there? Don't recall having seen anything,and quick searches aren't helping much...Also, would anyone have any advice on how to go about actually modelling something like that? I would hope it's as simple as getting the gun onto a bent arm and pointing it at the head, but not sure how that would work with the scale of a Space Marine model etc. He's Horus Heresy era at the moment, also.

As a slight aside - I'm open to other suggestions about how to model what I'm going for here, which is a strangely extreme gambler aesthetic. Also, anyone have any idea where I could get a painting guide for either a leering skull or Joker-esque scheme on the faceplate of the helmet?

Cheers in advance for any help/suggestions given.

If you're looking for a revolver bit, Anvil Industries makes one. I've got a few of their revolvers and they're pretty cool. They fit guardsmen and marines. In fact my counts as Marbo uses one as his ripper pistol. Good luck with the project.

Probably the best looking, easiest to find revolver bit would be a Necromunda stub gun. Usually a lot come in the Goliath set and not a lot of people use them because they're not as good game-wise as other pistols

How about these:
