Unfortunately I didn't have that much flexibility with the head as I had to pin it in order to build it as so I really only had three choices looking to the right, left or straight ahead. In the end I did glue his head in the cliched position because unfortunately it did look the best. I've also added his respirator, connecting pipes and a holstered pistol. I changed it from the initial design which would have had the pipes coming from the two outlets at his chin. I did this because despite my initial feelings that the outlets were too big they have grown on me. I've relocated the pipes to just behind these. Also debating which side to put the gun.
I think in 40k games I'll use him as an advisor or sanctioned psyker.
Looks good! What's the orginal model?
ReplyDeleteThanks Steve, it's an OOP empire merchant model that I picked up on eBay, you can see it in its original form here http://inq40k.blogspot.co.uk/2014/09/im-back-wyches-mordheim-keeper-of.html
DeleteSeriously inspirational stuff. I have the makings of a 28mm Inquistorial retinue kicking around somewhere and you might well force me to drag it out...
ReplyDeleteWhere did you get your tube maker from?
Thanks Herbert. You definitely should, I've really enjoyed converting these models.
DeleteTube maker was from greenstuff industries. I purchased it from eBay.
lovely conversion, ties together the feudal Gothic and futurist syd mead style seamlessly
ReplyDeleteThanks Neil :)
Deletegreat conversion with bags of character... and I like that he is not screaming, waving a huge sword, or carrying a bolter the size of a desk as a pistol.
ReplyDeleteHaha thank you, it is a bit calmer and more collected than your average 40k model
