Commissar Modeling Options


Recommended Posts

Second verse, same as the first!

Thank you guys so much for the help with the Wyrdvane Psykers in my last post:

http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/topic/331233-wyrdvane-psykers-modeling-options/

In the end I think I'm going to go with the AdMech Electro Priests as my heretical psychic batteries. Both for gross chaos mutilation possibilities, and plus the "psychic battery" pun works even better with them. rolleyesclean.gif

Anyway, with a squad full of Nurgle-fied Electro Priests, and with the current Commisar model being so mortal, and loyal, and... whelming, what do you guys think we could use as alternate Commissars to keep our alternate Wyrdvane Psykers in line?

I had originally considered using plaguebearers themselves, or maybe even cultist champions or even plague marines, but, this could easily get confusing. Until I expend into a (heretical) Astra Militarum collection, I'll mostly be fielding a Psykana Division as an allied psychic battery formation to summon Daemons (of Nurgle) to help my Death Guard, or my Nurgle Daemons themselves. And, even then, I've come to respect this online community for housing such creative and mindful players, and I'm confident we can come up with something better. msn-wink.gif

So, again, who/what do you wonderful people recommend I grab to model for Nurgle Commisars to keep the Psykers in line, and make sure they're executed before Tzeentch can abuse their weaknesses via the warp with Perils rolls?

Thanks for the input, guys. Appreciate every bit of it.

 

Also, nice paintjob, our-baz. I aspire to paint lines and details as smooth as those.

 

In the meantime, WarriorFish. I thought the overcoat cultist leader was in the Dark Vengeance box still. So maybe ebay? Or I'll have to trick a friend into starting 40k.

Also, solid recommendation KasrkinRyu, looks similar to a Commissar so it'd be recognizable, but it still looks different, interesting, and even a little sinister.

 

 

Definitely some things worth considering, but I'd love to hear more ideas if you guys have them.

She is a little out of scale..

Another alternative

 

The Baneblade commander makes another good alternative

 

Wargame Exclusive also have a few models which would work

 

They would all need the touch of Grandfather Nurgle to fit in with your army theme...

 

Warriorfish means this one in the middle front   and they are all over eBay

 

 

Anyway - back to the painting corner.... :(
