Thos dreaded muzzles It's really only 1 or 2 horses with that problem in the kit. Mostly they look ok 2 hours ago, Harioch said: Nothing greenstuff or bits couldn't solve for making these models in theme but if you like them as they are I guess it's not what you want . Personnaly I find their heads are more "Slaaneshy" than DoK so I plan to use some SoS/Witches bits or even make them Centaurs to go full Greek Monsters, I don't know yet. Them being male is not a problem for me since I like my armies having different gender and I figure "Daughters of Khaine" like "Sons-of-Whatever" which doesn't mean full male or female, just a major part of the force ...but it's only my view on this matter and I don't mean to enforce it Yeah mostly - I reckon the naga/gorgon kits will end-up giving a lot of spare bits and arms that along with SoS or Witch bits will make a kitbash easy. I like your centaur idea - it's darn good idea actually Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhivan Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 Personally if I ever use Warlocks for a DoK army I'd probably convert them to look something like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Menkeroth Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 Witches look on the lizards quite well! It seems it was not that hard to reposition them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlaaneshCultist Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 I think it's just the buck teeth on the horses that suck. Otherwise I like them a lot. Can't wait to start my DoK army! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhivan Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 It's not hard at all. The legs and torso are from the sisters of the thorn kit, not the witch elf with makes it easy to just put them on the Coldone. After that it's a simple head and arm swap.

Menkeroth Posted February 4, 2018 Share Posted February 4, 2018 We have to see which boxes we get. I am not sure they will be that multipart to be easily converted, but who knows. I hope we get at least swappable heads and arms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DantePQ Posted February 4, 2018 Share Posted February 4, 2018 Usually dual kits have a lot of parts to convert so I guess Gorgon Aelves would be nice base for conversion but who know maybe those kits won't be so multipart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Menkeroth Posted February 4, 2018 Share Posted February 4, 2018 It's certainly possible, GW seldom makes such rich on details boxes like it used to during 5th of 40k. But we can hope still. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a possibility but in all likelihood heads/faces will be swappable - just compare the Archers with the spear Naga/Gorgon ladies. The body and arms are basically identical but the heads/faces are the only unique bits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In this sense I miss great boxes from the times of 5th ed of 40k, with lots of bits quite often - Space Wolves marines, Dark Angels veterans, Chaos marines, eldar dire avengers.... but still, who knows. 1 hour ago, Mandzak-Miniatures said: This is all setting the bar pretty high for future releases.

DantePQ Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 I don't know about all kits but some GW kits are amazing - Harlequins are awesome with huge number of bits as well as Tree Revenants I Like Witch Elves kit as well I have made amazing Dryads with them and still have tons of bits. I've posted it before in other topic but if anyone is interested Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Menkeroth Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 Well, of course I didn't mean it's that bad. 40k had always an advantage in this, but yeah, their dualkits in WHFb were quite nice too, for the most part. Just not as much as I would want to. P.S. dryads are really amazing, and I like the snow on bases! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great work although I'm not a fan of snow terrain in general. Nothing at all against your work, I just don't think snow ever turns out as good as other basing/terrain materials.

Which has got me thinking because snow is actually quite a logical basing for the Winterleaf grove. Winterleaf is the name for a reason, no?

DantePQ Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 I think so but in my case it was about unique look colorwise and whole army was inspired by GameofThrones wraights. I was thinking about doing the same with Daughters of Khaine but I will just use Microart possessed bases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Let's 'ere it for da boyz! Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 I know everyone here is clamoring to find out when the new models will be dropping just like me. I did some quick google-jit-su and found this link: https://astropate.blogspot.com/2018/01/warhammer-40000-e-age-of-sigmar-uscite.html?m=1 The author goes through a purportedly reputable source with access to GW release schedule for the first half of 2018. Now there are some gaps, and some of the info has already borne out as (somewhat) incorrect. However, considering this info was originally laid out back in November, I’d say it’s pretty spot on. I’ve included a translation of the original Italian below for other ignorant Americans like myself who aren’t multi-lingual. Quote This is definitely an article that will appeal to many. On November 27, 2017, on the Advanced Tau Tactica forum, user Haechi posted the information he had about the releases in early 2018, but for a while it was not possible to verify whether it was a reliable source. According to Haechi's information, at the beginning of January we would have seen the Chaos Demons for Warhammer 40,000 and Age of Sigmar, while at the end of the same month we would have seen the Custodes. This is exactly what we have seen and we will see during this month. This information arrived well in advance and was even accurate in placing Demons and Custodes in both parts of January. It therefore makes sense to illustrate what other outputs are planned by Haechi, along with some new information posted after receiving confirmation on Demons and Custodes. First half of February: Adeptus Custodes. Second half of February: Thousand Sons. First half of March: T'au Empire. Second half of March: Necron. Between April and May: Drukhari, Harlequins and two new elven armies for Age of Sigmar. This could also confirm what I theorized in the recent vocal message on the Astropath Telegram Channel, namely that the Battletome: Legions of Nagash will not be accompanied by new models, but will serve to put Death in step with the rules of the other Great Covenants while the new models will come later. Presumably end of May or June. All of this still falls into the rumors, but the source proved to be extremely accurate with regards to January’s releases, so we could trust it.
