Brother Maynard

[Hive Mind]

He's partially glued, partially blu-tacked right now and there's still lots of work to do (like taking that hand off the shield), but I present to you; Brother Maynard of the Icaarus Crusade, Bearer of the Holy Orb of Antioch

“...And the Lord spake, saying, "First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin. Then shalt thou count to three, no more, no less. Three shall be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who, being naughty in my sight, shall snuff it.”

On-topic, it's a nice little conversion. Good use of parts.

That is such a cool idea, kudo's for pulling it off so well and when you've got him painted, please post up another pic!

I think the book is from the Mordheim bits sprue, the hand appears to be a regular Bolter holding left hand.

[Hive Mind]

The book hand is indeed just a regular left-hand bolter arm with the hand strategically straightened out a bit but the book itself is from the Ravenwing sprues.

wow, that looks really cool! I love the pose and teh selection of bits

Note that since this picture was taken I've re-positioned the book-holding hand to give him a much firmer grip on the Book of Armaments. I'm doing a BA Librarian (which I'll be posting pics of very soon) alongside Maynard and both will be getting their first coats of paint today.

Stay tuned...
