He is known within the circles of outlander traders and bounty men as “The Spinesinger”, for the soft chitinous rattle of his armor in the dust storms of the Ash Wastes.

This is the second of my small conversion project, combining Ash Wastes Nomads with bits from the Warcry Warband “Tarantulos Brood”. I really want to channel the side of the Nomads that focuses heavily on illustrating the bond between Nomads and the Macro-insects of Necromunda.

With “Web Pistol” and “Long Blade”.

Inspired by the Kyt’nag, the Clan Urh’nag Spirit of Chitin, this is the first kitbash of a full roster using parts from various Nomad kits and the Warcry Warband “Tarantulos Brood”. I hope you enjoy!

Clan Kha’tragi, the “Dune Shepherds”, are the primary supplier of Anthromites and Helamites to the major Ash Waste Nomad Clans, as well as chitinous weapons made from their herds of macro-insects. They also rear the mighty Urh’nag War Scarab, trekking across great distances to deliver the massive war-beast to deserving Clans.

According to the seller, the blade had been passed down for some time in the same family, before it was finally sold when the family did not find a need for it any longer. I suspect it is likely not going to be a candidate for polishing, as there are several openings in the steel, and it is very likely too tired at this point. That said, I still really enjoy this blade, and I am hoping it can be attributed to a koto-era Yamato-school smith, given the lovely suguha hamon.
