    Ey, if that's the one I think it is, got that model for a friend as a Christmas gift a couple of years back.

    yep, he's Guts, central character of the manga Berserk.
    The grim darkness of the setting is 100% fitting. ;)


    speaking of which...

    Yea. My friend is a massive berserk fan, so when I saw that miniature on Hard-Core Miniatures, I knew I had to grab it for him. He was happy with it, has plans to incorporate it into a Ravenguard army eventually.

    Personally I felt that Black Templar would be more appropriate, but whatever. His army, his choice.

    Ok, years ago (we're talking about 8th edition), i had bought a large 2nd hand army of necrons, with many good models but also with a box of scattered pieces and incomplete models, including some old necron warriors with no green rod).

    specifically, there were 3 incomplete tomb blades, missing the weapons, the riders and many details:

    Long story short, i picked the old warriors, trimming their legs and the left arm, gluing them as rider, and put some new gauss rifle as weapons (spared bits from the new warriors' kit). the cable from the new heavy destroyer kit has been used as left "arm"

    Are they perfect?
    well, no... but they are decent enought, instead of a brand new kit at the cost of 47 Euros...
