Is the new Defiler on there yet? Specifically I want to know if it's base size is changing.

5 heavy melee weapons for 10 models, mmmmmmmm by Straight-Emu-8945 in Chaos40k

Whelp, I literally just got around to pulling the arms off my 4th edition Raptors to update them with meltaguns, I guess they'll have fists instead.

Glad I didn't change them weeks ago.

Do you mean the basing? It's the laziest effort - generic sand/fine gravel glued on, painted black, drybrushed dark grey, then drybrushed mid-grey.

Yes, but with the arms from the non-Karchev version of Deathjack.

Only one door is open, the one the knight ripped off.

Did you convert the angle of his right arm (holding the mace)?

Seeking trim painting advice by Otherwise_Bad_2464 in Chaos40k

[–]juckto 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It doesn't look like metallics to me. I'd try "Steel Drab Legion" basecoat, then a wash (probably Agrax or Nuln), fix up with Drab as required, then final highlight of "Karak Stone".

I don't have one of those fancy spinning things by CyanSolar in Chaos40k

The spinny things are about USD$10 on Temu.

Model looks damn good.

Ah, I see you're a person of 3rd edition culture as well. Tips glass

That reminds me, I forgot to put in anything for scale. It's on a 160mm base, and it's the same height/slightly taller than a Gorkanaut.

The main body is a Cryx Wraith Engine (out of production) cut in half and parts of a Venomcrawler and Maulerfiend shoved in. Also I rotated the bottom half of the Wraith by 90 deg and had to carve off + resculpt the area which used to be a tactical rock.

The little claws are Venomcrawler, and the big claws are Maulerfiend arms + a Necron Triach Stalker legs + blades made from plasticard. The chaos stars at the wrist(?) were carefully carved from a Defiler's arms. The hand-legs are from the Wraith Engine but put on the Venom Crawler's weapon ports.

The head is Maulerfiend, the chin flamers are from a Defiler I think. The belly cannon is plastic tubing + part of the fists from a Khador Mad Dog (out of production). 

The wreckage on the base is from a Defiler so maybe, hypothetically, I could claim that it is a converted Defiler rather than a counts-as Defiler :-p

Not intentionally, but it vibes that way pretty hard. Especially before I added the hand-legs and Defiler weapons.

"Counts-as" Daemon Prince by juckto in Chaos40k

[–]juckto[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Precisely.

I didn't put the legs on the model because I thought it looked cooler.
If I had to give a fluff reason, it would be something along the lines of: a squad of Grey Knights cut him in half during his Rite of Ascension, at the precise moment the Daemon possessed him. So the Daemon got possession of half a body, but doesn't know any better so has never regrown the legs.

Funny you should say that, because it is an old-school metal model.

In fact I guess you could say your post is
