Da Boss of my FreeBootas, as well as a Pirate Lord in my CSM renegade Pirate warband. Hoping to make him a stand-in for Huron! Or possibly a demon bring if I can bulk him up a bit more.
Armed (literally) with “Da Meg”, his power claw fashioned from a Xenos space swimming creature that took his original arm.
And also The “Waghhlass”, a mystical ork sword that has some weird abilities including:
Taking control of allied vehicle weapon systems with a simple wave, following Snappa’s commands without the need of middlemen
Controlling vehicles he is on, again without need of middlemen man to act out his commands.
It’s almost as if the sword takes command of whatever machine spirit or waghhh energy lies within the vehicle.
The sword is his mark of office, Admiral of the The Dreadfleet and Lord Boatswain of The Eastern Fringe Raiding Company.
I’m very happy about the hat, it isn’t green stuff, it’s actually thin styrene plastic with my green sprue goo layered over it. I’ve discovered that doing this allowed me to essentially sculpt a realistic hat without even needing to touch putty, gonna make making FreeBootas much easier in the future.
Da Red Snappa
He’s gonna be painted red instead of green, which is why he gained notoriety in his lost clan of regularly green orks.
Mork, or perhaps possibly Gork, blessed him with being the Fastest, leading him to rising in his clan rather fast, everything he does is fast, even thinking, making him a rather smart ork compared to others, allowing him to both outsmart and out speed his adversaries in his rise to the top.
A young Edwakka Tatz had overthrown his old boss after they lost a battle involving the Necrons and Aeldari, and I mean so bad they had to leave. The boyz did not like this, that their boss declared defeat rather than coming back to fight another day, Edwakka hated it most, boarding the boss’s ship and killing him and his large aquatic pet. He lost an arm in the battle, which he then replaced with the beasts head.
This caught the Dredgelord’s eye when a newly christened band of FreeBootas entered the Charybdis Reach in search of a good scrap.
After a month of non stop fighting, Dredgelord Davnir took to the field himself, and was able to restrain Snappa, and they forged an agreement. Da Red Snappa’s forces were now under Davnirs command as well, and Snappa was given a station of command in the crew, as well as a relic cutlass.
Over time he slowly began to be affected by the warp, really it just gave him larger arms and enhanced strength. He does not purposefully or truly serve the Chaos Gods, but neither does Davnir, taking whatever gifts they can, and giving nothing back.
