marvmoogy Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 Hi guys, Hoping someone can help me out here with a squad of BaC Terminators. I want to kitbash them with the Deathwing bits to make some Cataphractii (or however you spell it) Knights. Now, the maces on to the storm bolter arms shouldn't present any problems at all. But what about the shields? Am I best slicing the power fists or the lightning claws? Should I just use the shield arms as they are? Should I try and get my mitts on some FW left arms and trim the shield arm at the wrist? Any and all help greatfully received!

I'd personally use the BaC Cataphractii Chainfist arms and do it like this: http://i1359.photobucket.com/albums/q797/halandaar/Warhammer/Forum%20Images/chainfists_zps8fobi5wr.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/321083-bac-terminator-help-needed/#findComment-4353955 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xenith Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 Buy the FW upgrade cc weapon packs designed for these models, then add normal storm shield hands to the cataphractii arms.

Halandaar Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 Buy the FW upgrade cc weapon packs designed for these models, then add normal storm shield hands to the cataphractii arms. I think the intent is to use the Deathwing Knights Shields though, which are much bigger than standard ones and are a single piece with the arms.

marvmoogy Posted April 6, 2016 Author Share Posted April 6, 2016 I've managed to get one done using the B@C Terminator power sword arm trimmed down a little. I have 1 FW resin arm I can also use so now just need 3 more. I've looked at the Chainfist arms but I don't think I can make the cuts clean enough to work.

Cactus Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 Hi, I was going to continue our PM discussion, then I noticed this topic. My copy of B@C arrived so I've had the plastic cataphractii in my hands for the first time. My suggestion is to cut away the entire arm and hand from the storm shield then glue the shield to one of the cataphractii power fist arms. If you want to make more work for yourself you could alter the power fist to look more like a reinforced or armoured gauntlet, or even a kind of cowling on the back of the shield that the marine slips his hand inside.

marvmoogy Posted April 7, 2016 Author Share Posted April 7, 2016 I hadn't thought of that.... Good shout! Cheers, Cactus Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/321083-bac-terminator-help-needed/#findComment-4357773 Share on other sites More sharing options...
