That was about the only nun imagery I kept. We will see what I do for the other models. They need to be dressed for the harsh elements. How else will they enact holy vengeance on the enemies of holy Sigmar?!

I want to have some iconography from Sigmar, namely the twin tailed comets. In terms of the nun imagery, I want that to be very minimal. For this model the only thing that I really kept was the cloth wrapped around her face.

I want them to look more like wanderers than Holy Sisters, with small details suggesting their upbringing.

That is pretty great, particularly the pose and the hammer.<br /><br />I guess I am a little confused about the direction you are going though, Sisters of Sigmar looked like battle nuns because they were battle nuns... so are you also making battle nuns, or are these going to be female Sigmar warriors, without the "nun" aspect?

Unless of course that was the intention, pushing more the idea that they're a group of 'female only allowed' survivors in a similar vein to Escher in Necromunda rather than the original Viking nuns?
