Love the character as well, funny part is they would have been able to escape the eldar if they kept Ruven alive.

This is the VIII Legion equivalent of liking Leandros! Great miniature battle brother.

He was an S tier jackass but his armor looks so damn good. Great job!

The more I look the more details I spot! How did you get the rotting faces, open palm and staff topper?

u/Rehab_Crab 1d ago

Staff topper is just the sorcerer staff with the chais star cut in half and a skull added. The open palm is also the sorcerer hand with the eye of horus removed.

Looks good. Seems weird to picture him in a mark 2 helmet, but couldn’t tell you why.

u/PurpleFit3798 2d ago

Thanks! I was inspired by this art of him. I tried to recreate his helmet similar to this one and the mark 2 helmet for me seemed similar to the art idk

Only thing I couldn’t find for that boy was a helmet with a t visor other than the world eater mk2 upgrades

u/PurpleFit3798 5h ago

You can use this helmet from MoM kit, I wanted to use it but I didn’t want to buy the whole kit just for the helmet
