Miniature identification help

[AWu]

Bot not typical one as I obviously know what the miniature is..

But what the hell he is holding in his right hand is beyond me ..

Is it fan ? some instrument ? something totally different ?

Any owner know ?



It looks like fan to me but have pair of large rings attached.

I dont know what it is and thus I have problem with how to paint it.. Perry pic is not too helpful..

It's probably a shakuhachi.  Essentially a flute but sometimes used as a weapon.

The other possibility is a message scroll, but I don't think so.

Ahh.. sorry for forum missplace

If some kind mod could move it to Adventures in the far East ?



Its to short and rectangle to be a flute - and those two rings sticking out of it confuse me completely

I looked on Perrys website couldn't tell,but now I have the urge to get it as paint it as a mutant/alien for my 40k style sci fi frontier .

Very nice set of miniatures (unfortunately photo on the page is worse in details than my cell phone here)

Although he looks very human - so you will need some greenstuff to add, but he will work as human traveler straight from the set (Fading suns style).

The item looks  like this


And I think I have a winner
