My vanguard Sgt.

[Captain Hajime]

In my Japanese themed army I decided to kit bash my Vanguard younit so it fit in with my Japanese theme. The Tengugumi is a group of vanguard vets taking there name from the legendary Tengu.

So we have Beakie Helmet, Sanguinary Guard body, wings and jump pack, standard shoulder pad and Term honours shoulder pad, Plasma Gun arm and battle axe from Sanguinary Guard. the Plasma arm had to be cut in three places to reassemble in a manner that allowed for the correct possion of the axe hand. it stands for a relic blade and a Plasma pistol, I debating the Melta bombs ojn the squad since al but one has plasma pistols, and that one has a pair of power fists.
