the emperor is scottish Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 I can across this picture of a pre heresy death guard and wanted to know if anyone knows the process that went into building him. Bits used, how much green stuff etc. or how you would go around building him. http://www4.osk.3web.ne.jp/~hasinaka/dguard.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/264393-old-school-death-guard/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Durus Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 Body from a 2005 Games Day marine. PF from Command Sqad. Plastic Missile Launcher. Backpack from FW MkVI Corvus. Head could be a converted Warzone Trencher or a heaily modified MkVI helmet. Not sure about that.

Olis Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 I think that the Gamesday 2005 Veteran was used as a base, the power fist comes from the commander box (I believe), the missile launcher seems to be a regular tactical Assault on Black Reach one with the gap between the upper arm and the shoulder pad greenstuffed as chainmail and the Backpack might be a real old-school RT metal one. It's either that or it was heavily converted. Not sure where the shoulder pads, the spikes or the helmet came from though. Hope that helps. :( Edit - Curse you Durus!

the emperor is scottish Posted October 27, 2012 Author Share Posted October 27, 2012 So the helmet might be converted? Gutted apart from that I was starting to think it might be a simple conversion. Is there anywhere sells something similar? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/264393-old-school-death-guard/#findComment-3221487 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Durus Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 If you want the british WW helmet you could give these a try. Max Mini Puppetswar West Wind Productions The West Wind ones might be a little smaller than the average GW head. The other ones are pretty much intended to be used with IG minis so size shouldn't be an issue.

the emperor is scottish Posted October 28, 2012 Author Share Posted October 28, 2012 Thoughs are nice but I was thinking more Germanic like the death guard. Never mind found some on puppets. Still feel free to post if you know of any more. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/264393-old-school-death-guard/#findComment-3222299 Share on other sites More sharing options...
