Converted Autarch Belian Tannaith
So a long time ago I bought a couple of Epic Revenant Titans, just because they looked really cool. Actually I bought just one, but the order got fortunately bugged and they sent me two. For a long time, they'd just been gathering dust, but lately I've wanted an Autarch that could represent any Autarch, whether on or off jetbike, and Yriel or standard. I didn't feel like buying one and thought I had enough bitz to make a really cool one, so I came up with this model. Bitz list: - Epic Revenant Titan body and back crest. - Warwalker helmeted pilot head. - Dire Avenger Exarch Dire Blade. - Dire Avenger Exarch head plumes. - Fire Dragon Exarch Dragon's Breath. - Green stuff. Green Stuff applications: - Head conversion to include head plumes. - Spear hand to revert from right hand to left hand. Name and Backstory: I named him Belian Tannaith, mostly because it sounds like Biel-Tan, which is the craftworld I play. And I used that last name because It appears amongst a list of the three most prominent Eldar families. The idea is that I could use this model to either represent a standard autarch, count as Yriel, or an autarch on jetbike, sue he doesn't look much like a jetbike, but with a suit like that, I recon he should be able to move just as well, and the base is a bit larger, I have base expansions in the case someone makes a big deal out of the smaller base. The idea is that this Autarch was critically damaged long ago and in order to save him and later allow him to go back into battle, he was placed in the wraithbone body.
