In the case of the Destroyer, the large base size is actually a bonus since you can hit more models with the blazing body rule. Besides, I think it says in the rulebook that you are supposed to put it on the same base size as the arachnorok.

Thanks for the coments. The rule book states that K’daai destroyer must be on the larger sized base.
The prep for the model was farely simple but long. I had to cut back alot the fur and excess until the body was cut down enough to built up the layers of green stuff, and use GW sculpting tool to press in the lava cracks and smooth the ends to a close. Semi sett armour plate was placed on and sheilds were glued and green stuffed on once greenstuff layers were set. Stonehorn horns were removed and cut down thundertusk horns were pinned and green stuffed on top of the head. Wire was bent into shape and super glued in the mouth then greenstuffed over and the the wire out of the mouth was green stuffed around. Had to pin the head on as it wouldn’t fit properly and the gap was greenstuffed. Flames were also greenstuffed on the face. The tail was cut down pinned and attached later. Then a few other little things.
Big job

Wow a lot of prep went into just getting the model for your first set of pics before painting. Thanks for the guide, this may be a project later in the summer, before i go back to school in september.
And thanks for the clarification on bases.

Nice work. It’s a great model (the Stonehorn) to work with.

That is one bad a… K’daai. The painting looks dark and brooding, very good.
