Which figure/character..Update got my Tattoo done.

Let me preface this by saying Its time for my next Tattoo.

I Have and enjoy what I call my "nerd" tattos. Generaly I derive an idea from something I invested alot of time in, got real involved in , or just generaly think is bad a**. I have a guy who was a comic book artist turned tatoo artist and his work is , to say the least, phenominal. I have recieved a ton of feedback at expos and have at least two of my works in his portfolio.

Some examples I have are
A Frostwolf , from my time I spent playing WoW. To many its "hey thats a cool wolf", but to those who know what it is..

SoundWave (g1), I have collected , yes collected, not played with Transformers since they came out in '84 and I still have the entire collection of g1, the majority of which I bought with my paper route tips in the 80's

Raziel, from the BEST story line of any console game period.

Bloodrayne, well she just made a hell of a tatto....

Anyway you get the idea, so now its Scapes turn, so I ask, as the title suggests, who do you propose best represents scape. Personaly I am leaning towards Raelin, and in recent events I am considering having her scewering Serra angel with her pike In an epic battle scene.

I know there are threads existing, ie , whos the best unit , etc etc but this is more about...who is the first unit that comes to mind when someone says heroscape to you. Like that old word test.

Re: Which figure/character best represents HS

Cool.

Deathwalker 9000 was my instinctive response.

But you should really get a huge one across your entire back that features all of the iconic characters in action.

Re: Which figure/character best represents HS

The first unit that always comes to mind when someone says HeroScape for me is Sgt Drake. Though if you asked to quickly name some of the coolest figures, then I would have to say Nilfheim or Braxas.

Re: Which figure/character best represents HS

Before reading any of the other responses, just the question, I thought of Drake first as well (Rab gives thumbs up to nyys)
As far as looking cool to me, my favorites are Marcus Decimus Gallus, Deadeye Dan and the Master of the Hunt.

Re: Which figure/character best represents HS

You'd really need a figure that represents the randomness and variety that you see in Heroscape, preferably a really iconic one. My initial thoughts would be Grimnak or Mimring, or pretty much any of the heros for Utgar (especially the Marro, considering that they're a "only in Heroscape" unit).
But since I'm such a Jandar fanboy, I'm gonna say Drake too. I'm also going to agree with Ollie and say that you need him in action. Maybe stabbing an Orc or Marro with his katana?

It's not whether you win or lose. It's having the 4th Massachusetts Line that counts!

Re: Which figure/character best represents HS

Thanks for the ideas guys.

Not sure bout DW9, as it'd be redundant robot wise.

I do however like the scene aspect as a whole piece and the suggestions.hmm perhaps drake and raelin vs some marros.

Re: Which figure/character best represents HS

Has to be Grimnak, probably the most iconic figure from the original Master Set.

Re: Which figure/character best represents HS

It has to be Raelin or Ne-gok-sa. Kyrie and Marro are the original figures of HeroScape. You can get Orcs, robots (soulborgs), elves, humans, etc. in many other games.

Re: Which figure/character best represents HS

Without a doubt Drake. I mean, the guy was even featured in the cartoons and comic. Drake is Scape's poster boy.
