Alternative Heads

Recommended Posts

The design of Cataphractii armour is fairly prohibitive for bearded heads. The un-helmed Cataphractii head stops just below the bottom lip, your best bet is to cut down a bearded head and imagine the rest of the beard inside the armour, alternatively you could then add in a bearded via Green Stuff.

The Puppetswar Norse and some of the Cossack heads are quite good. Also it looks like they just did a set called Valhalla Warriors that look like sci-fi Thor helms... hm I may need a set of those, I think Arjac Not-thor needs a proper winged helmet.

 

links precious?

The thing to be mindful of with the Puppetswar heads, in my experience anyhow is that they run a bit small. That may end up working out for a Cataphracti head space, but on regulard marines it can be kinda dicey. It may be sculpt specific though. I ordered a bunch of their crusader helmets and they are teeeeeny, but the Samurai ones are properly scaled. I'd reccomend a cheap test order before a bulk one.

I have a whole bag of Norse and Cossack heads intended for my Wolves....Wayyyyy to small for Power Armour. Like, they would look super goofy with my other bareheaded Wolves (SW and Chaos Marauder)

So sad. Trying to find a use for them. Maybe the Kaerls I want to try some time... unsure.png

@kassil I dont find those bareheaded ones to be too bad for power armor, they arent really much off from chaos marauder heads imo. Or even some of the FW resin bareheads. Metter of taste I suppose though. They look awesome for Wolf Scouts though full stop!

 

@token dunno about those they are brand new I havent seen them in real life yet.

The BaC CATAPHRACTII are actually not that hard to work with. There is just a flat plate that you need to chop off, with just a little more work a full head will fit fine.
