Venator Hunt Leader: Friedrich the Red

I’m working on the concept of an outlaw pirates for hire gang. Most importantly, the venator hunt leader needs to set the tone for the look and feel. And, for flexibility, I want to be able to swap between Ash Wastes and other campaign settings.

First, a hooded head and menacing demeaner was needed. The heads from the repentia squad have a few of these that look quite nice. Secondly, a base with a mix of stone and metal allows the fighter to visually fit in the wastes or any underhive sector. Consequently, this conversion was quite simple with the head swap providing big impact. I may modify the pistol to plasma. I love the bone-like texture on the outside. However, I can also envision that as bubbles of plasma in a modified gun for a pirate leader.

This venator hunt leader conversion uses:

Body, arms, and weapons – Commissar from militarum tempestus box
Head and “belt” – Repentia squad box
Base – Necromunda 28mm
