Necromunda ’95! – Bounty Hunter with Bionic Arm (Gary Morley, 1995-6) (Squaddie September ’19)

Today’s model is one of my favourites from the original Necromunda range. Sculpted by Gary Morley, this model is a good example to show that the guy really can sculpt well, and it’s probably worth noting that there is a story behind the obscenity that it the original Nagash sculpt. Anyways, this bounty hunter naturally needed to make it into my 1990’s gang (as a ganger).

Once again, I’ve done some 2019 toning down of some of the more garish elements, and those that just didn’t look good to my modern eye. The end circle on the chainsword, along with the black and silver motor parts near the handgrip were red, the blue power cable for his (hotshot) lasgun was originally bright green, and the little parchment bounty tickets that are now white with “text” on them were previously red.

No changes to the back half of him, aside from the cable I’ve already mentioned. The purple tribal-esque tattoos were inspired by those worn by Avril in Grendel Tales: Homecoming.

I included this shot so that we can see behind the chainsword (as opposed to Behind the Music!) These pics came out a little soft/blurry, unfortunately, so I may redo them when/if I have time in the future.

Finally, this guy plus the other two Necro figures from my old Grendel gang actually give me a group of three – so they qualify for a Squaddie September success! Yay me!
