here are some pics of how I made cd warriors from chaos warriors I will use these as regular cds or as ironbreakers when used in a ‘dwarf’ army this one shows how I cut the front body the thigh plates make good lower armour. I trimmed the feet to size, along with the cape at the back. I also removed a portion that was the belt this is the assembled figure he stands slightly taller than a normal cd, but the overall height is lower than a tall hat version the finished article- looks quite mean I think
nice work, i have around 3 box sets of the chaos warriors sat around and didnt know wha to do with them i might try some out too . one thing that cuts sweet is a hot knife, heat it up to red hot over a gas stove it glides through like butter. the new citadel modelling kit is pretty sweet too
Great idea. I wonder the same as Pyro as well, how well do these guys rank up. I think you might have to stagger these guys (one on the front of the base, if possible, one towards the rear, etc…) might not be able to do so however…
As the others have noted, Ranking all the lads togeather might prove a problem. The only advice I could give you is regarding the head.
You should just scrap the idea of recycling the old Chaos Warrior heads on Dwarf models unless you’re prepaired to shorten it and turning it into a mask via lots o’ cutting, or some form ov vast conversionism…
I tried to use an un converted head on my boys and gave up on it as I never felt quite comfortable with the head size and the way the beard didnt seem to flow naturally from under the visor.
I love the beard however… Your Zig-Zag pattern Foo is strong.
but… but… but, are they on a 20mm base now??
