Oloch the iconic warpriest is pictured on page 64 of the Advanced Class Guide. His mini is faithfully rendered by Bobby Jackson.
As I went to paint Oloch I realized he had an object in his right hand I could not identify. Is it an orcish weapon, a religious symbol, a part off a '69 Roadrunner?
If any one knows, please post the answer. If Bobby Jackson comes here,
thank you for the nifty sculpt, but wazzat ting?
Just looked at Oloch's picture again. Looks like it's some kind of Gorum holy symbol or censer. I think he uses it to bash people with though, as in the picture it appears to be dripping blood. Whatever it is, it's only a slightly different color than his armor. A little more brownish.

Whether it's a censer or not I can't tell, but it is definitely some sort of Gorumite charm or holy symbol. It is dripping blood, but since he uses a greatsword, he can't reasonably wield an improvised weapon in his off hand. Wayne Reynolds is really the person to ask, as the bits and bobs that make our iconic characters so unique are largely added by him when he's designing them. Lacking an answer from Wayne, I'd just go with it being his holy symbol (which he needs to cast spells). That it's covered in blood is just a bonus.
It's the Sky Key on an adamantine weapon cord.
