Hey all!  I'm adapting the Hernkyn Yaegirs to represent an 'internal police' gang for the Ironhead Prospectors (basically Ironhead Enforcers chasing down rogue Squats).  As part of this idea, I've created an antagonist gang for them led by a Squat who's become a worshipper of Vashtorr.  I've kind of got his model sorted (either the Arkanaut Admiral with a gun conversion or a Claim Jumper with an AdMech backpack for the Mechadendrites and a big hammer instead of the axe), but as part of his schtick as a sort of crazed inventor I've given him a couple of 'henchmen' in the form of a pair of Bullgryns.  The masks and the tank track armour really work for the idea, but the problem is I'd like to put some sort of stimm injector arrangement on their backs, like Bane's, and maybe some pipework to connect the injectors to their bodies/the masks.

 

Does anyone have any suggestions as to where to get something that'd fit the bill?

Realistically, you'll probably need to sculpt the pipes, BUT Drukhari Scourges each have 6-8 stim-vials in their backs under the wings, so 2x Scourge rear torsos will set you up with a variety of injector vials.

 

When doing your pipes, roll the GS into the pipe shapes, then let it set for an hour or so. Once the hour is up, it'll be much less susceptible to fingerprints and deformation.

The Hell brute kit also has a number of larger vials that might work better on a larger model like an ogrynn which also have the advantage of being separate pieces and therefor don't need any cutting.

 

They are the flask looking things on the plasmagun in the inset picture, which I swiped from the GW shop.

Guitar string for the pipework, like tubes from the mask to the back.  Here's a sample:

Btw, this is my Nurgle-infected Servoskull, I was giving it like a floating appearance, 1 tendril dragging across the ground.

There's a number of nuances, someone would've made a YouTube of it, but ya search guitar strings for miniatures, etc.

Yup, E, A, or D string from a guitar (i.e. the wound ones) for the chunkier pipes.

 

I think the Goliath Stimmers have some of the vials/injectors on them - I don't know if they're available from bitz providers?

Thanks for the replies all!  I was able to get some Goliath Stimmer packs from eBay and some cheap guitar strings from my local music shop.  Thew guitar string is a great idea , I'd not considered that.  Once I get the Bullgryns I'll put up some pictures of the WIP.
