darkangel1030 Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 Hey all, I have just assembled 2 boxes of DW Knights, minus the heads. I was planning on using helmets instead of the robed heads. Has anyone else done this, or think it will take something away from the models? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryan Blaire Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 Several of the members have done this, I really like the look with the Grey Knight helms. You can take a look at my thread if you want to see what I came up with here and here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother dean Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 Nope, you're good... It doesnt make sense that the most experienced, longest lived DW member choose to go without helms.... http://i172.photobucket.com/albums/w20/fred40k2002/Deathwing/DSCN9770.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Master Avoghai Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 Wow, I really like those heresy armours with robes cactus.... Have you any pics before painting to show how you've included those robes on the resin? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Galthan Ironsturm Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 Really beautifull Tartaros oups...cataphractii ! ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cactus Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 Master Avoghai, the WIP images start here. Essentially I cut away a lot of plastic and replaced some of it with modelling putty. I did consider using the sinister hooded heads because I like the look, but it would take a lot of work to make them fit the cataphractii bodies. If I was making them solely from the plastic kit I would probably do as Brother dean, some hooded and some helmeted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aradiel Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 i considered using mine with helmets, but ended up using them to bling out the generic plastic terminators so helmetless they are. i would absolutly love to have them with hooded helmets, sadly my sculpting skills are lacking (to put it mildly) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raztalin Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 I second BryanB's suggestion; to use the GKT heads. I have some modeled up like that currently; BUT after seeing Cactus' Cataphractii versions I'm rethinking mine lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

captain sox Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 I used the robed bodies on my Deathwing Command Squad. Only my HQ have robe or semi-robed bodies. My Knights have the non robed torso and regular helmets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
