IG sgt. Harker model

[Tyfus]

The new model of IG sg. Harker has been spotted:



I really like that heavy bolter.

Kudos to Mega Nutz over at Warseer.

:beer:

[carminaburana83]

I really like the pink mohawk.

[ArtificiallyEnhanced]

Not sold on it. To be honest I've not been sold on any of the SCs at all, I much prefer to convert my own interpretations.

[M'ichal]

well, I gotta concur about liking the model, especially the machinegun and bullet-chain-whatever

Is it just me or is your avatar an ex speial character, the everqueen?

[xXClaret-PaulXx]

I'm not too sure about the model, but I love what they have done with the Heavy Bolter and Ammo chain, I think that looks awesome!

I guess we'll have to see what it's like when some bigger and better pictures surface!...

[ArtificiallyEnhanced]

No, its a converted bret damsel that I got through the mini exchange. And by special characters I meant the IG ones, there are some pretty cool SCs for other races out there.

I'm not a fan at all TBH, though it may just be because the picture's crap.

I frinkin love that mini. It somehow reminds me of the Necromunda gang (Goiliths or something like that ???).
Gimme plastic I.G minis like that and I would be a happy bunny!

[Demon in White]

Goliaths.

[Da Mighty Camel]

Yeah, he will make a great heavy with heavy bolter for my Goliaths. If they ever get one that is.

[Demon in White]

I don't know much about Necromunda, but I remember seeing the Goliath models in the old IG Collectors' Guide and thinking they would make good Ogryns. Not that I collect Guard, but...

[Da Mighty Camel]

Well, they are a bit small, being humans and all that you know? ;) You can check out some of the current Goliath models in this post in my painting log (http://www.librarium-online.com/forums/projects/156492-dmcs-grand-thread-painting-all-things-related-also-free-cookies-4.html#post1455194). Beware the moobs!

[Demon in White]

They're big humans though...

~ DiW

[Da Mighty Camel]

Yeah but the aren't even close to be ogre-size. :P

[Demon in White]

True, but I'm sure you could use parts from them at least.

~ DiW

[Boomer]

No they really are human size.
Ogre models tower over terminator armour models.
Goliath models are no taller than other human sized models,
they are smaller than Ork Nobz and Nobz are still not as big as Orge.

And Goliath models are mostly one piece models IRC, i think only the hands / weapons come seprate.

[Da Mighty Camel]

Boomer got it right.
Using them would be like using Grots as nobz! :P

Also, what do you mean with us being "off-topic"? ^^

[Lord Borak]

Awesome, I really like that model. It's like 'ox' from Last Chances. But done well!

I'll be buying that guy just to paint up.

[Zarahemna]

Is it a little too Goliath?

I think the pink mohawk is miles off personally. I imagine either a crew cut or a shaved head for Harker not some prodigy-esque hairdo.

[Memnoch]

Nice model. So far so good for the Imperial Guard special character models-I like this and the Straken model. Harker reminds me of the old Ox model from the Last Chancers and the Goliath models from Necromunda. And as for his pink hair? It can always be painted something differant.

[Da Mighty Camel]

And as for his pink hair? It can always be painted something differant.

But would it be as awesome? I doubt it! ;)

[Mr. Biscuits]

Has anybody heard of any release dates for this sexy beast of a catachan?

[kevin vanrooyen]

Whatever happened to the old bit of fluff about all catachans wearing red bandanasas a symbol of the blood oath they took when they joined the guard? Many of the current catachans dont have bandannad heads but there are bandannas on most of their lasguns, harker simply does not have one.

It's a nice looking model but it wouldn't have been hard for GW to stick a bandanna on there, it would sure as hell be better than his mohawk. Besides what's the point of GW writing fluff if they're just going to ignore it?

[chrispcarter]

In that case just cut off the mohawk and GS on a bandana, then robert's your mother's brother.

The model isn't too bad, but I don't collect Catachan so I won't be getting it - unless I get him to use as an =I= HB servitor stand-in...

I've already converted my own "Harker" from Cadian plastics and a SM Scout HB, he doesn't have the beef that model does, but my fluff will use excuses of augmetics to say why he can fire a HB like that (either that or that he is a failed SM Initiate, as my guard are the Ultramar 202nd).
