New Hand for Kyzres, Apprentice of the Wandering Techpriest

Long had I feared the delicate little pistol that Kyzres, the Apprentice of the Wandering Techpriest, would fall off if mishandled. It wasn't even mishandling, just a light brush of a pinky finger while picking up a nearby figure and the crashing sound of a tiny piece of metal lost in the abyss around the painting table. So I had to decide if I should replace the whole hand or try to pin a new pistol for her.

After an attempt to drill a hole into her hand (I think I need to get a new drill bit into the pin vise), I decided to delve into my cache of weapons with hands from Heresy Miniatures. I found the one that looked best and snipped off her hand and then pinned the new hand in place. I think it fits well and looks the part of a slightly high-tech weapon without being as oversized as the Techpriest's gun.

I decided she needed some slight touchup to her paintjob and needed to try to match the skin on her hand. Her dress got some highlights and her skin was lightened slightly. Her (space) wolf-pelt also got a lighter drybrush to make it even more wolf-like. I think she looks even better than the original paintjob.

And here she is with Tamabuku, the Wandering Techpriest.
