Now, I'm sure you've all seen the illustration in the LRB of the assassin-type with a cybernetic snake (or cyberphidian, as I like to call it). Well, inspired by that, I made sure to include rules in INQ2 that would allow players to invent cyber-organisms of whatever ilk or species they were inclined and have, since, been on the hunt for alternative cyber-creatures.
Taban Miniatures, therefore, are worth watching. Their 28mm skirmish game, EDEN, is looking like it might be a good future source of weird and wonderful figures large enough to work at 54mm if this is anything to go by:

I was just talking to Necris the other day saying that I wanted a cyber-snake for an Ordo Sicarius character - I had been planning to use the tail of a Wraith as a base...
Cyber-Squid!
I've actually already made one! Using the Wraith tail, and a bit off an Epic Whirlwind as the head...
I love it.
Can't use it for much, sadly, but I'll certainly be keeping an eye on the range.
It looks like a Red Dwarf Scutter thingy. ;D

It really doesn't. See? (http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/reddwarf/images/3/37/Scutter.jpg)
DapperAnarchist - any chance that you could post pictures of your 'cyberphidian' model?
I will, when I find my camera. Seems I foolishly deleted all my pictures...
That would be one massive snake. Certainly far larger than the one in the inquisitor artwork. The Wraith tail would seem to be a more appropriate base. Not that I'd be against someone using this model. :)
Sorry, but the Scutters were the first thing I thought of when I saw this miniature.
