im looking at using the vampire counts necro for a IG primaris psyker, gave him a bit of a hood then i was looking at the skull in his hand, and it dont really seem right that he would be lugging poor yorrick about a battlefield of the future, im not overly confident with greenstuff, but learning and dont mind messing up in the process, so im thinking something simple but dont know what would sit there short of an orb of some kind. Anyway, i tryed to get a picture but it wouldnt focus very well on the hand,
this is what i have so far

here is a better picture from GW website of the skull im looking to do something with


any advice ideas folks?
thanks]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/525027/5579968.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/525027/5579968.page GMT 40K...I made an Astropath from it. As for the skull...well, Imperial agents in the artwork always look weird so carrying a skull round is probably fairly normal for them. Maybe he has found it on a battlefield and he's trying to pick up some kin dof psychic imprint off it or something? With 40K you can use psychic powers to explain a lot of things!

On the other hand, you could do what I did and convert it to be a servo-skull. As you can see below, I simply added a bundle of cables from another kit to the bottom of the skull, and there you go. You could also add a cybernetic eyepiece to it or other bits of technological weirdness.

Another idea might be to file away the hand and replace it with one pointing or holding a pistol or some other weapon - you should be able to get suitable bits from some IG kits (if doing this I would recommend looking at the IG Command Squad kits, especially the Catachan Command Squad, as their scale seems more realistic than the most other IG plastic kits, which have rather oversized hands).

You can see more pictures here!
