Kilamandaros Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 Hi all, So I've put together an Inquisition detachment of MT Scions using the old metal Storm Trooper models, have 4 squads of 5 so far but struggling to find a suitable model for the Tempestor Prime. The modern Prime model just doesn't fit with the old SAS-style metal ones (I mainly have the gas mask troopers) and they will be coming down via Grav chute with the other squads so looking pristine with a big coat on doesn't really fit the image. Ideally I'm looking for them to be equipped with a command rod which would double as a power maul, I'm fairly confident with conversions so happy to look at that option. Any ideas most welcome as I'm a bit stuck! Many thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucerne Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 Play up the commander aspect? Give him a plastic scion body and backpack, but use a gas mask head, or beret, and lots of cameras/gadgets? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarriorFish Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 As Scions have Commissars with them, maybe that's an option for a base? A third party gas mask head might go a long way to getting him to fit in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NatBrannigan Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 The Forge world Krieg Commissars have Gas Masks, great models if a bit pricey of course! That is tricky mind you, the old Stormtroopers are great but are a bit unique aesthetically. I'm not sure if you'll be buying a Scion kit but the Beret heads there are perfect for a Special Forces commander. They're also available individually from bitz sites for cheap. There's also a servo skull speaker thing that's quite commandery (of course that's a word!) and the Jacket draped over the shoulders is a lovely thing. I've use it on my Colonel and Yarrick conversion (with a bit of chopping and greenstuff needed for the later) My Tempestor prime is a simple kitbash. I'll be painting them in 95th rifle colours so my Prime is Sharpe. Blood angels head, Mechanicus rifle, big ass sword and voila! I've also swapped out a Scion Volley Gun for a Kharadon Overlord steampunk Volley gun and added another Blood Angels head to make a Harper for my Command Squad. Doesn't help you of course but I've told you all the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Ruminahui Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 If you have an extra sergeant, you could covert one easily enough to hold a rod rather than the sword or auspex the storm trooper sergeant models have.
