40k nut Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 Hi all, I already have a Dark Apostle, and want to make two acolytes to join him. His prayer role goes up from a 3+ to a 2+ if they are with him. I already have a hooded chaos cultist I could use for the main body of one of them. Any ideas for another body, or arms that are holding books, torches or perhaps whatever those things are that hang from chains and burn incense?? There must be some AOS kits that have those type of parts. Thanks in advance!

Any ideas for another body, or arms that are holding books, torches or perhaps whatever those things are that hang from chains and burn incense?? There must be some AOS kits that have those type of parts. Thanks in advance! The "things are that hang from chains and burn incense" are called censers. And for the censers, look to the Dark Angels or Death Guard ranges. I think the Death Guard range has quite a few censers with smoke coming from them As to arms holding books and torches: Age of Sigmar, specifically the Free Peoples/Devoted of Sigmar (read: the old Empire) range. The Flagellants in particular is, imo, perfect for making some deranged cultists: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/355170-ideas-for-converting-acolytes-to-join-my-dark-apostle/#findComment-5293293 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Furnace Lord Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 I don't know the exact bits in the kit, but the Age of Sigmar Battlemage box lets you build 2 figures in robes, one option has a book and another has a staff with a giant torch. Not sure if it's the aesthetic you're looking for but it struck me as a possibility.

Trevak Dal Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 Just two Johnny random Cultist models with stuff from the Terminator/sorcerer lord kit glued onto them, with the Dark Vengeance "most everybody used this guy as a Dark Apostle" chosen guy.

Panzer Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 Necromunda has some great stuff too. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/355170-ideas-for-converting-acolytes-to-join-my-dark-apostle/#findComment-5293428 Share on other sites More sharing options...
DuskRaider Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 Necromunda Cawdor would work quite well. They've got the disheveled fanatical look about them. Some simple head swaps on those would go a long way or just leave them as-is.

Iron Father Ferrum Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 Just two Johnny random Cultist models with stuff from the Terminator/sorcerer lord kit glued onto them, with the Dark Vengeance "most everybody used this guy as a Dark Apostle" chosen guy. That's my plan, verbatim.

Tokugawa Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 When the flagllant kits came out, many GW plastic infantry models are still bad(ancient tactical squad, ancient guardsmen) at that time, and i brought 20 and converted them to many functions. Now they are a bit overpriced(due to webstore exclusive), Cawdor gang may be better choice for you.

Slave to Darkness Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 Im using these. http://www.solegends.com/citrr/1rr16redemption/_07A4324x-01.jpg http://www.solegends.com/citrr/1rr16redemption/c3p56rr16disciplesx-01.jpg I have lost the Leader and the Standard bearer but I have plenty of Disciples left. I even have the Cultist from Dark Future somewhere, I might use him alongside the old RoC Slaanesh dude with the KKK style hood and flail for my Slaanesh Apostle.

Slave to Darkness Posted April 10, 2019 Share Posted April 10, 2019 Actually that speaker face dude has given me ideas, time to hit my bits boxes and see what I can find. Hmmm after further thought, a few of the ideas I could use for the base of an Inq28 warband.....
