Zanthrax:
Greetings bros
Has anyone used the Shar’tor mini as their kdaai destroyer.
I am still playing 8th with my bros so have no need for him in AOS.
He looks big enough but would appreciate your thoughts.
:hat off

TheHoodedMan:
Difficult to contradict Admiral ;), but he is 100% sure not big enough. He is only slightly bigger than a normal Taurukh and fills a normal 50x75mm base (based mine on such).
On a 100 x 150 mm base he would look very very small.:hat off
Skink:

Admiral:
Haha, I misremembered his size apparently. Good catch, gentlemen! :hat off
Zanthrax:
Thanks for the speedy replies bros
Zanthrax:
Has anyone got a side by side of shar’tor with the other forge world bull centaurs?
TheHoodedMan:
Here`s a pic with the normal Taurukh which is about the size of the FW renders.
Lighting is bad, but you can get the idea. I would say he is a little more massive and a little bit taller, about 10% more size roughly (estimated).
Helblindi:
Good to know, I was kind of thinking about getting him as a tauruk.
Zanthrax:
Thanks bro
This message was automatically appended because it was too short.
Horace:
Hmmmmmmm. Hmm. I was going to use him as my Kdaii but perhaps I need to rethink.
He is on a larger Oval base than the Centaurs and Taur’ruk. Do you think it could work with a funky base or really too small?

Admiral:
Perhaps if mounting him atop a dramatic rock, with fire and Daemons dancing around him? Or with piles of broken enemy corpses around his hooves and around the cliff? Shar’tor is Bull Centaur-sized as well pointed out by TheHoodedMan, but could possibly work as a K’daai destroyer with the right tricks. At least some oldhammer armies use small old monsters on their modern correct bases, and it doesn’t look half bad.
Perhaps some rudimentary mock-up trials could tell if it’d work?

At least some oldhammer armies use small old monsters on their modern correct bases, and it doesn't look half bad.Well here it is mocked up on paintshop with the base scaled to the correct 150x100mm. Width-wise I think it looks ok, but that is not really a surprise given it is only going from 70 -> 100mm and he is a bit of a chunky chap.

Length-wise it looks a bit worse, the rear corners I think are the main problem areas. the front will have to be built up anyway due to the rock on his base.
I think he could work well as a Destroyer and his scale is quite nice against my old metal army. I guess the only question is whether to cheat on the base and drop the length to 100 or 120mm or to get imaginative on the modelling
Admiral:
A little shorter base won’t hurt much if you deem it best, but why miss out on a good excuse to go to town? Skink’s K’daai Destroyer base is a stellar example of all the fun one can have with a big base:
Horace:
That is a pretty amazing base, I am not sure I have the talent to pull that off though 
I am having a basing dilemma in general with my Chaos Dwarfs, can’t decide whether to match my existing armies or go unique
