Erm... a horse?

A space marine on a horse! There's no real reason for this except that I had this metal horse laying around and wanted to do something with it. With 40k, there isn't much opportunity to work with horses, especially now that rough riders have been removed from the Astra Militarum Codex. So the idea of a space marine captain on a horse is interesting, I think! The legs are from the Space Wolf thunderwolf kit, and the head is from the space wolves pack kit. There are other parts from custodes and Forge World kits. For the base, I created the rocks using resin in a temporary mould.

I've painted him as a captain of the Knights of Blood, a Blood Angels successor chapter who have been declared renegade.
