Hoodsgate Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 Hey guys and gals! After finishing up a large guard force and having my hand cramp up once or twice from painting a billion troops, I've decided on Custodes as my next project. I picked up the Talons box second hand a couple months ago on the cheap and the codex last weekend. Absolutely love the lore and my hand loves the low model count. The only thing I don't like are the pointy, Eldar-esque, heads on the regulars Gaurds. Has anyone tried their hand at head swaps? Any favorites? I am personally looking at the Invictarii heads from Forge World but I'm worried that they may be too small for the larger Custodes. Thoughts? https://www.forgeworld.co.uk/en-US/Ultramarines-Invictarii-Heads-Upgrade-Set Stoic Raptor 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/343975-custodian-guard-head-swaps/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
dicebod Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 Have you seen the heads from the Custodes Sagittarum guard? More regularly shaped, and you could pick up the set with the heads from FW (relatively) inexpensively.

Grotsmasha Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 (edited) I don't see why they wouldn't work. Perhaps bits source a couple of alternatives on eBay for comparison. Like, the new Allarus Helms, or some of the FW legion helms, EC and WS spring to mind.Cheers,Jono Edited February 1, 2018 by Grotsmasha Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/343975-custodian-guard-head-swaps/#findComment-4999571 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoodsgate Posted February 1, 2018 Author Share Posted February 1, 2018 Thanks for the suggestions. Did not realize I over looked Saggitarum heads!
