Lunar Centurion Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 Anyone got any ideas for a non-metal Primaris Psyker? I'm bad at working with metal, and I don't really like how he looks. Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inso Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 You could always convert a Tau... that's what I did for mine: http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d161/Inso/GW%20Squats/SquatWIP51_zpsuofxvw63.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Halandaar Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 How about a Renegade Psyker from Forgeworld? http://www.forgeworld.co.uk/resources/catalog/product/600x620/99550102065_RenegadeMilitiaRoguePsykers01.jpg Or if they're too Chaos-ey, you could always do something with the Empire Wizards kit?

Captain Caine 24th Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 I use Empire flagellants for priests and psykers, they look crazy. You might find a staff or various other psyker bits from grey knights on eBay. Use a green stuff roller or guitar wire for your psychic tubing needs.

Lunar Centurion Posted November 24, 2015 Author Share Posted November 24, 2015 Thanks for the tips! I think I'll try to convert an Empire Wizard (Or something... I'll look around). Hopefully I get around to it soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kierdale Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 I too will throw in a vote for the Empire Battle Wizards. Images of mine: Hidden Content Rather happy with how the resurrection orb turn out that this one is (probably rather ill-advisedly) fiddling with... Attaching the left arm-section of the orb-holder and the right-arm section of the pistol holder after painting the `inside` meant there is a bit of a seam down the outside of their cloaks, but I'm not over bothered about it. The pistol-wielder got the eye-in-a-ring-upon-an-I Adeptus Astra Telepathica icon on his scripture-streamers, while the orb-fiddler got a different AAT icon (I found in my 7th ed. eRulebook) on the back of his collar (not my best freehand, I'll admit).

Kierdale Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 Dude I love that orb how did you do it? Thank you. I wrote up how I did it in my army thread.

CoffeeGrunt Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 Here's the two Psyker models I use, Tarja from Raging Heroes, and Sister Herja from Kromlech. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mertbl Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 I like the look of the choir of menoth from war machine. They might be metal though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoffeeGrunt Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 I think they're metal, and Warmachine models tend to be a bit of a pig to work with. They look kinda nice, with even more gratuitous shoulder pads than 40K. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toxichobbit Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 If you can get hold of them (and you like collars and feathers) there is the Psyker's from 2nd ed http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2012/10/11/420171_md-2nd%20Ed,%20Imperial%20Guard,%20Psyker,%20Snow.jpg 3rd ed http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2011/7/12/246240_sm-Base,%20Blue,%20Desert,%20Guard,%20Imperial%20Guard,%20Lightning,%20Old,%20Primaris,%20Psyker.jpg Necromunda Telepath (though I'd change the staff, it's very Chaosy) http://www.coolminiornot.com/pics/pics14/img4ba6795298ddd.jpg As mentioned above, Privateer Press have a few models that might work. Stormsmith Stormcallers, Choir of Menoth, Reclaimer, Orin Midwinter. Maybe Greylord Escort if you had Valhallans. Unfortunately these are all metal, so you'd have to be pretty OK with the original model to use them. Maybe just changing out weapons or something simple. Here's the two Psyker models I use, Tarja from Raging Heroes, and Sister Herja from Kromlech. How is the scale on those models compared to GW? I've heard that Raging Heroes stuff is a bit too tall and thing to fit. I like the look of the choir of menoth from war machine. They might be metal though. They are.

CoffeeGrunt Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 Raging Heroes stuff seems pretty much the same as GW in terms of scale. Models themselves are much slimmer-built, but height-wise they're the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Height of the models is ok, but their poses make me think that those girls are a little taller than your average guardsman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoffeeGrunt Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 Eh. Helps them stand out in a blob. Honestly, we're comparing a couple of millimeters of difference, here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inso Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 Height isn't an issue... proportions can be. Much better a taller character in the same style/proportions than a character that is the same height but proportionally different. There are some excellent suggestions here... what about a Cadian/fantasy Dark Elf combo? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
