I present to you, Ordo Hereticus Inquisitor Oblivi'Anna:
The default choice for that marine helm is of course the space wolves, but ya never know in who's colors I'll actually paint it in. |
Some miniatures earn their names in the heat of battle, others...they just pop into my head at random. This case is of the latter sort. Oblivi'Anna is the Blackstone Fortress Zealot that I bought via ebay some time ago. Armed with her combi-incinerator-chainsword (a truly bizarre weapon), her tactics of the less than subtle sort: KILL IT WITH FIRE! (and if it gets close enough) AND CUT IT TO PIECES TOO!
This rail gun isn't as effective as the Tau models he's studied via classified Inquisitorial documents, but it's getting there... |
I'm going to try and paint up her Jokaero weaponsmith proxy as well. I've never liked the actual Jokaero mini. An orangutan, partially clad in random space suit bits, shooting lasers out of its finger tips...seriously? As opposed to this equally improbable Platypus, in a helmet-less space suit, holding a sorta railgun? Oddly yes, I can dig that. Also, it goes without saying that by having her very own filthy Xenos, that she falls squarely in the Radical camp.
As you can see here, originally she was to have these three acolytes in her retinue as well. However these lads have been transferred to what will soon be Oblivi'Anna's own personal army... |

Oh wow that's a super super cool miniature to turn into an Inquisitor... wish I'd thought of it! I'm excited to see what you do with it, sir.
Thanks man! Yeah the first time I saw it 'inquisitor' was my first thought. Just took awhile to find one on eBay that wasn't being ransomed for an astronomical rate.
Good name, that. But you defeated your own argument about orangutans.
lol, true. Its all a matter of taste (or rather the lack thereof) I suppose.
