Saintspirit Posted October 16, 2013 Share Posted October 16, 2013 I haven't, but now that you mention it, it does sound like a pretty good idea, IMHO...

Fair Winds Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 I haven't done it, but I imagine you could do it relatively easily. Cut/file down the Dark Angels and Imperial iconography, replace with push molds of Word Bearers and Chaos iconography. Also lots of painted thin wavy lines to look like script.

Brother Heinrich Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 Check out Kibosh's "Chapter of the Forsaken Truth" project log in the WIP section. He's got some great kitbashes and WB conversions using a few DA parts.

MaliGn Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 Yup, although I don't have any photos, there are a few exa,pled though. I think either Tzen or Totgeboren had some like that in their plogs.

the jeske Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 am not sure if the set is still sold , but Black templers had a very nice plastic set of models that fits the WB a lot . Even more then the DA one imo . I have made a WB army using a mix of space wolfs GH boxs and BT parts . They looked feral enough to feel like chaos, but with the enough the crusade/zelot feel .

totgeboren Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 I haven't used any DA bits for my WB, though I did a squad based on BT parts. After a lot of comparison and contemplation, I decided that the BT bits were easier to mix with CSM bits, and they were easier to convert too. On the other hand, Tzen has done some really cool WB using DA bits, so it can definitely be done. I just felt that the DA marines had too much of them covered in cloth, and was worried that they would clash a bit too much with the rest of my marines.

Iron-Daemon Forge Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 If you check over on warseer - Rovient has a really great Word Bearer army & I think he use a few of the Dark Angels parts http://www.warseer.com/forums/showthread.php?344133-21st-Host-of-the-Word-Bearers-Legion I seen a lot of other Word Bearer armies using the old metal Dark Angel robe models as chosen & look really cool as well. Hope that helps IP Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/281992-help-with-word-bearers-conversions/#findComment-3498660 Share on other sites More sharing options...
