Kyte Presents: [/color] The Kings of Pain - An all converted Chaos Dwarf army [/color][/size]
Hi there My name is Jonas Plass. I’m running Tzeentch and Wood elf army diaries on most other forums, so I thought I’d make a gnoblog here as well. The name of the army “The Kings of Pain” IS, as most might have thought stolen from the hit single “King of Pain” from The Police’s 5th album “Synchronicity”. LOL.
This diary will include all manner of WIP pics, notes Armylists, Battlerepports, Conversion tips and everything else, that is needed in the army. Almost every model in the army will be converted except a hellcannon+crew. I’ve bought some skull pass models, all for �25:
2 Thanes
2 Slayers
1 Bound Slayer
1 Goblin Shaman
1 Cart
1 Cannon
3 Crew
80 Night Goblin spearmen
20 Night Goblin archers
24 Dwarf warriors
16 Miners
10 Thundeerers
10 Spider riders
Goblin tower thing
I think that’s it all.
Now I just need to wait until the post arrives While I wait, I’ve made some test models from the free WD models and a death rocket battery from plasticard
I have thought of a conversion list:
Thanes - Heroes on foot
Slayers - dunno… Maybe sorcerers. These are the only models without armour.
Bound Slayers - really dunno
Goblin Shaman - Hobgoblin Hero with great weapon
Cart - dunno
Cannon - dunno
Crew - Maybe sorcerers, maybe BSB
Night Goblin spearmen - Hobgoblin warriors
Night Goblin archers - Hobgoblin archers
Dwarf warriors - Chaos Dwarf Warriors
Miners - Chaos Dwarf Warriors with Great weapons
Thundeerers - Blunderbusses
Spider riders - really really dunno…
Goblin tower thing - base decoration or unit filler
Wall - base decoration or unit filler. Maybe a front filler, that counts as 5 blunderbusses…
Converting really isn’t a problem for me. Here is an example of what I can do with greenstuff:
This fella is my beastman general and won’t be part of this army though.
Here are some pics of the chaos dwarfs I’ve done so far:
Death Rocket (or Fireworks of doom):

Now the list leaves me with some conversions, that can’t be made from the deal, but those are easily solved with bits and leftovers from other armies + some minor things, that I can get from a local bit pusher.
Great Taurus - Converted 40k orc dreadnought with pilot made from a regular warrior.
Bolt throwers - Plasticard with Night Goblin command models for crew
Earthshaker - Old hellcannon, that I bought before I realized that they weren’t usable in beastman armies.
Death Rockets - as on the picture. rockets made from balsa wood and plasticard.
Bull centaurs - GS cast the pony from the wagon and use The casts as base… Or anyone got a better idea? Steam punk Astragoth style centaurs from plasticard, anyone?
