Azlanaë — Anja’s plane

Pronounced Oz-lon-uh, Azlanaë means “Redwing” in Anja’s native language, Festællish. She stole this plane in her youth, chasing one dream: to leave Festællan behind and live on her own terms. Over the years, she rebuilt and modified Azlanaë into more than a machine, it became a symbol of her independence and a testament to her engineering skill. Azlanaë carried her through her days of piracy with The Thunderwings, and later into her life as a mercenary and eventual military commander.

The Skinks are well known for their Revolver Interceptors, which are able to compete with more technologically advanced rivals through naked pragmatism. The Revolver has no landing gear, limited maneuvering, and no interior space other than its cockpit. It has seven weapon mounts, which are usually armed with anti-shuttle missiles and light cannons. In offensive missions the Revolver can carry heavier torpedoes, but this requires that some of the mounts hold boosters so that the boat isn't dangerously slowed by the weight. Low maneuverability isn't a major issue for the boats because they are typically fast enough to strike before they can be detected and be gone before they can be targeted.

Welcome to the fantastic world of the Astra 'Santa' Militarum!

Let me tell you a bit more about myself; I'm somewhat of a novice in the vast Warhammer 40K universe. I heard about the franchise's name during my high school years when passing by a 'Games Workshop' store while buying my D&D dice and books. At that time, Warhammer seemed like an impenetrable fortress, especially for a girl, and the cost was very high. I didn't suspect the richness of the lore and narratives it held.

Fast forward about fifteen years to my encounter with the man who became my husband, a hobbyist in modeling and painting miniature figurines, including those of 40K. His passion for the lore and the way he talked about it triggered my curiosity, sparking my ADHD into high gear.

As he rekindled his interest in Warhammer and resumed collecting figurines after a 15-year hiatus, I was drawn to the Adepta Sororitas, particularly their saint, Celestine. This admiration led to my own detachment of the Adepta Sororitas, patiently waiting for me to free up some time to paint it.

Now, let's delve into the genesis of this specific artwork. One day, during a conversation with my husband about his Astra Militarum's tank division, the initial idea of an entire battalion of Christmas-decorated tanks emerged (unfortunately, I don't recall the exact conversation.) This whimsical idea lingered in my 'To Draw List' until now, waiting for the right moment to come to life. And here it finally is: a Leman Russ tank adorned with festive lights, steered by an officer dressed in a Santa uniform, a joyful fusion between Warhammer warfare and holiday magic!

Behold the Astra 'Santa' Militarum! In the dark and distant future reality, even the mighty Leman Russ tank joins the festive frenzy. Decked out with twinkling Christmas lights and steered by an officer clad in a Santa uniform, this festive spectacle brings a cheerful touch to the battlefield. Every bolt meticulously inked and painted, this tank is armed not only with firepower but also with a joyful merriment.
