so alot of people use autarchs on jetbikes. here how i did mine.

i used autarch w/mandiblasters, but its tricky because the head is pointed to the side. so i had to cut it off at the neck, which is weirdly positioned. when i cut the head off, i managed to do it at the middle of the mouth, right below the mandiblasters (though they were still damaged.)

so i repaired damage to the head with green stuff.

because i had shining spears in my army, i bought 2 boxes of those and used the extra jetbike/laser lance bits for my autarch. however, the torso is attached to a head, not to mention its metal. dire avenger sprues, though have an extra torso.

when i added the missle launcher to the bottem, i realized that the end of it blocks the hole the flying base stand thingy goes into, so if youre using a missle launcher you probrobly wanna cut the end off

arranging the control arm and keeping the body in the position you want it is hard, especially if its a weird angle like i made mine. but here is the end result.

for the base, im using a dead salamander SM (cause my friend plays salamanders

)
the hole in the middle is like a shot from the laser lance, and im gonna paint it with scorch marks around the edge. however, its also the hole that the flying stand thing goes into.

so wateya think?
