Horus Heresy Character Head Upgrades

[Etruscan]

These seem to me quite a useful addition but one minor criticism I have is that pretty much every head is so square-jawed. I know Space Marines have enlarged features but I have read about individuals in the lore who were described as 'wiry' or just not so bulky. Some of the old Forgeworld heads had some nice variation in that respect but then again they were hand sculpted.

 

And to second some other posters here, where the hell are the long bearded, long haired heads? Every Space Wolves option seems to have a neatly trimmed beard and mohawk. Ugh.

I guess if you want it that badly, then just get some sculpting putty and go for it...   (and to add some real world thoughts - Long hair and long beards would be a pain in a fully enclosed helmet....)

There's the issue. Those of us that want long hair and beards don't care about what is "realistic". Rule of cool beats all.

I'm putting 40k space wolves heads on my 30k space wolves. I don't even care

My apologies for the question but would these heads fit Custodes models reasonably well?

 

I believe the HH plastic models are slightly larger than old school 40K firstborn but would these look out of place?

 

Thank you.

Thank you.

I think, If anything, they’d looking even better proportioned on Custodes bodies.

+1 this.

 

The heads on the custodes plastic sprue are WAY wider than they should be. These should be fine, I'd think.

Groovy. Thanks folks.
