Man, if you lot were all on Twitter I could be going home by now...  Whip

Here he is:



Click the pic to go to the pre-order page. There's also a blank sniper rifle on there that I've been meaning to add to the cart since Salute. I'd add more pics but it's late, I'm knackered, and the camera battery died.  Shrug 'Tis an omen.

Going to get him for sure, not sure yet if it will be for use with the trenchies or another gang as he has a slightly different look to him so could do for the 'crooked hat gang' I am doing, suffice to say they are more evil than the trenchies!

He has a slightly more 'Syndicate' look to him, but it's mainly cos he's wearing his heavier coat all buckled up to help prevent burns. I was going to give him a welder's mask or visored helmet, but didn't in the end. Since his coat was done up, all his kit had to be attached to the harness of the flamethrower.

He's totally cool though. The only real reason I am probably going to use him in another gang is that at the moment it will be hard to justify having him, painless and tiny in the same gang . . . I will probably end up painting him similar anyway so that he can be used with them in the future.

Need a couple more normal gangers next to round off the gang. Perhaps with the ability to have rifles/smg's or pistols and close combat weapons. I think a nice little alteration to Wesley could do it. Remove the sniper arm with another arm down by his side with a catana and a normal pistol hand in this left hand. I don't know if it is possible to do so (will be in my next order) but you could make it so the right arm can point out infront aiming a pistol.

Another option would be to give him a chainsaw in one hand, perhaps with the other hand pulling the rip cord . . . . plus a hockey masked face . . .

'Normal' gangers and Noobs are next on the list, whilst I muse on what a Plasma Cannon should look like.

Hubanahubba  drool . . . .

Errrr, sorry about that . . . . I shall keep putting money aside then . .  just love the character of the gang so far and if you keep this going into other gangs etc I will probably end up buying all of them!!! I still think the female you did looked good as well. Nothing like a bit of mixture in terms of gender for a gang.

Plasma cannon . . . . should do one for the troopers as well! Personaly I think it should depend on the shape of the projectile. Some people see plasma weaponry as sending out a beam, others a ball or cluster.

Part of me wonders if a 'fusion' type weapon is a bit more realistic with the projectile having a solid core enfused with plasma energy on firing from the weapon. This way the enemy is struck by the force of the projectile which in itself does not have to be lethal whilst the plasma energy does the damage burning its way through the armour to the flesh.

I'm actually sorry that you didn't gave him a visored helmet/wlder's mask Sad - that would have finished of the more closed/tight look nicely. Will be looking out for the variant, now - Napalm-B ;D

I would definitely appreciate more 'normal' gangers - but yes, Plasma Cannon  Rolling Eyes - wonder how that would look like  Whistling

I quite like the Hasslefree plasma gun.  Maybe something similar?

I would also like to make a strong request for female members of the gang.

COOL!! Shocked
I like the skinnier, less muscly look to him. It makes him look a bit more psycho in a pyromaniac kind of way.
Another one to add to the list.
Next order
Wesley
Cyclops X2
Napalm Ned

Don't panic, baldie-lovers, the female trenchie is definitely happening! Have had it planned from start for regular gang member(s). Maybe i could do a future specialist/heavy as a female as well.
Only tricky bit for heavies is making them still look female when they'd need to not only be bald but butch looking as well!

You got to love gender diversity in gangs, its exactly how it should be. For a trenchie you could take some inspiration from google image searches on: tank girl (lots of ideas sketched with skimpy tops which she'll need), gi Jane - because its a woman with virtually no hair, and ofcourse alien for some more pictures of women bearing bigger guns and looking like they could kick arse and still retain their attractive femeninity.

I would go with some knee hi boots, and when you do the kids/youngsters for the gangs do a younger chick (I would say toting a small smg) as well because there are plenty of reference picks to choose from.
