Forté Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 Chaos Marauders are a decent fit. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/295129-modelling-world-eaters-missing-arm-armour/#findComment-3776389 Share on other sites More sharing options...
KrautScientist Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 Chaos Marauders are a decent fit. This. Beastman Gor arms can work too, although they need slightly more work (and a bit of a shave ;) ). As for the Marauder arms, the arms from the champion and musician (wielding a sword and cudgel, respectively) are the most useful.

Cheex Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 Agreed, marauders and beastmen are probably your best bets. I have also had some limited success using Catachan bits as well.

KrautScientist Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 orks painted non green might also work! they are pretty ripped! Yes, but you'll end up with a slightly mutated look, seeing how the Ork arms are too long. On Terminators, however... ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/295129-modelling-world-eaters-missing-arm-armour/#findComment-3776496 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chaeron Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 Chaos Marauders are a decent fit. Probably closest to scale - as say Catachan arms would be too weedy. Odd that they're not muscular enough... may be the first time that's ever been a problem.

MaliGn Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 Makes you wish that the old plastic Goliaths from necromunda were still available, although there were only really right arms that were useful.

KrautScientist Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 Makes you wish that the old plastic Goliaths from necromunda were still available, although there were only really right arms that were useful. Those arms are pretty terrible, though. As are the Goliaths. Necromunda has some of the best sculpted models in GW's entire catalogue, but the Goliath starter minis definitely aren't among them ;) What's thoughts on bezerkers with wolf pelts? Awesome! But then, my entire World Eaters army is themed around the idea of a hunting party, so all kinds of trophies - pelts included - make lots of sense.

KrautScientist Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 Win loose or draw the world eaters feel like a brilliant army to play And collect Couldn't agree more: Once you've spent a bit of time reflecting on how to make them awesome and interesting instead of generic, they just keep on giving as a hobby project -- at least that's the way it has been for me for the last three years or so.

I remember people used to savage them online, but I painted mine up and everyone likes them. It just goes to show that the paint job can really improve the mini, I also put it on a snazzy base. Snazzy bases cost but when you want to look your best while killing every last toy soldier...
