eldar phoenix lord maugan ra
the harvester of souls
Of all the Phoenix Lord miniatures, the sculpt of Maugan Ra has stood the test of time the best and so required virtually no modification. I decided to have Maugan Ra standing on top of a rocky ledge - since the Dark Reapers are used primarily in a support role, it made sense to me that their Phoenix Lord would want a commanding vantage point from which to rain fire on the enemy lines.date: 2008 - present (work-in-progress)
components: 1x Maugan Ra, Green Stuff, small stone, cork, 40mm round base

A small stone was attached to the base to represent a rocky outcrop. Green Stuff was used to ensure good contact with the base and small pieces of cork were used to simulate other rocks.

2. A view of the conversion of Maugan Ra from the rear.
I carefully filed the Maugetar's Executioner blade into a more vicious, scythe-like shape.
This component came from a Dark Reaper Exarch Missile Launcher. It makes the Maugetar look a bit more modern and also emphasises the scythe shape.

3. The scenic base is virtually complete, although I intend to add a few skulls scattered across the rocks before I begin painting it.
