GSC?  Agents of the Imperium..? 

 

[Jukkiz]

looks like servoskull, so could be anything imperium

My guess?

 

Ordos xenos biologus

[Kharn13]

Sang Priest was my first thought…

Looks like a Servo Skull next to the drill, which might imply a larger drill than on a narthecium?

Indeed, as per the NRBA rules, please remember to post a link to the original source. 

 

Skull and drill. Dfinitely imperial. Weathering is interesting, maybe necromunda mining clan? I don't believe 40k admech are weathered in such a way.

A bit from the new Necromunda stuff

[TrawlingCleaner]

How often does Human tech in 40k (Guard, sisters, SM, mechanicus etc) have chipped paint work? I'm assuming this is Necromunda?

Necromunda Reddit is speculating this is an Ironhead Squats thing based on the ridges on the drill casing, tho the Skull is confusing them a bit.

[StraightSilver]

Heresy Mechanicum?

[Paturabo]

Definitely a narthecium drill next to, if not attached to, a servo skull.

 

 

Now this could just be "seeing what I want" but there's a vaguely* Tear shaped dark spot on the skull's forehead. Perhaps this is the rumored return of Corbulo with a servo skull medical assistant?

 

*vague enough I wouldn't put money on it

[Tichinde]

the chipped paint could also be blood?

Then it would also be on the drill, nevertheless, even blood painted with those brushstrokes is often more a FW painters thing.

While I do get the Necromunda squats vibe from the 2 ridges, its imho more likely that something human in Necromunda uses a squat style drilling device than a squat using a imperial/human style servoskull.

Could still also be Horus heresy.

Clearly that must be part of the secretive Adeptus Dentistus organisation. Let's just hope there's also an anesthesia skull floating around.

[Mechanicus Tech-Support]

New admech killteam...not that I feel strongly thats what it is but a man can dream XD 

[LittlePlasticHomies]

Call it hopium but I went straight to Sang Priest.

[terminator ultra]

seeing as the drill thing has a magazine, I don't think it's a sanctuary priest. the skull thing seem to be holding this drill weapon? maybe votann?

[grailkeeper]

It's at a weird angle. Almost the angle you'd photograph basing material. 

[Captain Coolpants]

Definitely a digimon 

[MithrilForge]

Well... it's definitely Not Aeldari

[Schurge]

Narthecium toting Terminator for the new Grey Knights Terminator kit that will feature all of the same abundance of build options as the current one to be available for preorder this Saturday alongside the new strike squad kit that will still be able to build all of the regular power armor grey knight variants.

 

Probably a servitor to go with a primaris character. I just want new grey knights and I want them now.

With a drill that big the Adept must be doing a roaring trade in the Xenos market, particularly Orks?
