Now...I haven't actually bought anything for 8th ed yet. Nor have I played a game of it, but this is my 1st 40k mini painted in 8th, and he's armed with weapons which are unique to this edition:
ROKKIT PISTOLS!!!
(yes, those 2 words, put together just amuse the hell out of me for not logical reason...)
Note the Lions of Harlech helm on the base. |
As you can see by his looted armor, this Ork is a veteran of the sacking of Rynn's World. Which is always a nice middle finger to marine players, especially those who field chapters of the Imperial Fists' heritage.
Beakie tanks make da best Orky armor! |
Speaking of...I believe the Lions of Harlech technically fall into that category, and Kushial and I have a game tentatively scheduled for this coming weekend, allowing for us to give 8th ed itself a try.

Awesome! Really dig the looted armor in particular, that turned out fantastic!
Thank you sir!!!
The looted armor is definitely a nice touch! For a long time I thought about kitbashing together some Lootas or Tankbustas using bits of tank as armor, but in the end it felt like more work than it would be worth.
Using actual tank parts would, yes. However simply painting/using decals on the mini's existing armor in the colors of a previously vanquished foe works just as well.
