Fair use rationale is found below. The image was put together, converted, and painted by the artist below using Games Workshop based parts. The image is derivative of Games Workshop, but freely converted. Games Workshop allows unlimited use of models converted and created using non-standard factory designs. The image is used for educational purposes to describe modeling for the Warhammer 40,000 game.
