Groznit Goregut:

I really think any war jack from Hordes/War Machine would work. I got a starter box for free from Adepticon this past year and plan on using those suckers for mine.

lostmember:

I’m using Juggernauts with flames modelled onto their bodies and with ‘bullish’ horns. Hopefully it’ll work okay.

wallacer:

I used a 40k C’tan Nightbringer for mine:



cornixt:

How about this guy:

Vogon:

Incidentally has anyone thought of using that Ogre Kingdoms stone horn thing as a basis for a Destroyer conversion?

It’s already on the correct base size and has a couple of bull like horns. I’m thinking about it but my conversion skills are not too great so I’m waiting for someone at my LGC to buy one so i can have a look at the bits to see how easy it would be to convert.

Cheers

Mine is from it.
Right base size, good general size, bull aspect.
Need slightly conversion : I only remove two horns (on the bottom of the mouth and make fur), remove the saddle (and put a marauder shield), cut the tail, remove the ogre sign and some skulls in the fur, and add some things on the base : a small volcano and a burned tree, some skulls.
I thought about the lammasu head but it looks too small. Cause the head is the big problem : difficult to see a destroyer rather than a stone horn... But I don't find any good idea for the head... The body is nice, with flamming effects on the fur, the result should be nice.
Maybe I will show the painted result (cause it's still in WIP)...

I don't know about anyone else but I'd quite like to see some WIP photos as well.

A Reaper Krung beast might do the job.

I would think this one would be better IMHO

or for GW GT rules a High Elf white lion body + Black Orc Standard with Green stuff ?

Groznit Goregut:

What is the fluff of the Destroyer? Does it have to look like a bull? I think I’d rather have some giant steam-punk robot, instead.

It says in the book, "they take the form of a large mechanical bull, or gaint warriors"

so yes you can

And with that I know what to do with this guy:
Though I guess I'll need to lose the rockets.

Thanks for the information, could you please tell me in the Destroyer has wings in the artwork/it's fluff. I'm considering buying a bale taurus to use as "Buttercup" (what I'm going to name my Destroyer) but I would like to know wether I'd have to remove the wings.

@ Mythos; That looks awesome, I'd love to see it done in a lovely volcanic colour scheme.

Cheers, IC.

aka_mythos:

That funny… I think you should take advantage of the big hollow space inside to install some lights for its eyes. Now I’m waiting for someone to use this:

“Choose! Choose the form of the Destroyer!”



EDIT: Then again he never proved to be fire retardant.

EDIT-2: Thanks Ironclad, I’m still trying figure out my color scheme for my CD, but when I do you can be sure it’ll pop up on here.

What is the size of that thing though?

Exxonvaldez:

Just use a lord of the rings Balrog

mythos… what is that and where do I get one? (the giant mechanical man, not the stay puff one)
