Mr. Salamanders
Dark Vengeance Salamanders Space Marine Flamer
The special weapons flamer marine is not part of the Dark Vengeance box, but what is a Salamanders tactical squad without its flamer dude.
The tactical arrow symbol was made of green stuff to make it part of the squad. Also the scales on the should pelt and the little fire icon on the flamer fuel tank is green stuffed.
Maybe a decade to 7 years ago Games Workshop released Index Astartes Volume I-IV, which had such great fluff on every 1st founding chapter and some of the successor chapters. Volume IV had the Salamanders and in it had a Pre Heresy marine in Corvus armour with a nice 'Bling Blingin' oldschool flamer. Every bit of story or illustration I can find is a opportunity to make it as physically accurate in model form. So this is my version. I am very pleased with how the Forge World flamer came out.
The base is a charred remains of an ork. I wanted the base to be different from the others for gaming purposes. A bit of directional lighting was painted on the bottom of the model with the same reds, oranges and yellows to reflect the ground cinders.
