What else can I use for my daemons?!?
« on: March 20, 2011, 09:53:28 PM »
Ok so I love the daemons, but I really want some cool kind of 'contraption' THING for my daemons, like what the skavens have, but I know that there is nothing in the background about anything like that but some idea's would be nice :)
I've got every kind of unit that I can have but there must be something else I can use and look's impressive on the table, even if it is just a thing on the table?!?
Maybe I can add onto the daemon army list a 'contraption' :P

I was thinking something along the lines of a portal zappy moving thing  ??? :P

Han.

Well using some of the 40K/Epic stuff as a starting point you could easily make fantasy versions of these:

Pictures are just from a quick google search theres more out there.

Nurgle Plague Tower  - Basically a siege tower with cannons

Tzeentch Silver Towers - Floating wizards towers
http://www.games-workshop.com/MEDIA_CustomProductCatalog/m1181267_Chaos_Space_Marines_Datasheet_-_Silver_Tower_of_Tzeentch.pdf



Khorne Tower of skulls - Another siege tower/engine (should be octagonal in design as this one is)



Slaanesh don't really have an equivalent I can think of.

That gives you something to think on and not to hard to convert.

Ah cool ok, might have to buy a skaven screaming bell and do a bit on converting!!!


I really want some Slaanesh fiends, but I don't really know what to use to convert into them?!?


So the random line- up of thing's to convert (that are fairly easy to get a hold of) are... (drum roll)  ;D

Cut the bodie's off and simply ask a boyfriend to sculpt something  ;)


Not really sure about these but they might work?!?  ???


Uhm yeah and then there is this which I saw and might be quite cool to make in 10mm scale (somehow)...  ???


Thanks! Han.

OKay so I just saw this on someone's random blog, not even sure how I ended up there tbh...
But anyway, quite a cool conversion using a tyranid body I think and daemonette arm's and legs?!?

Which of the four Chaos powers will your daemons be from?  Khorne, Tzeentch, Nurgle or Slaanesh?  Or a mix of all?

I like the picture of the half daemonette and half scorpion.  It reminded me of a chariot that I have from Pendraken that is drawn by a giant (for 10mm scale) lobster.  I will try putting a female torso on the lobster, to make a sort of a centaur thing.

There are some 15mm nude female forms about.  Reaper has a water elemental that really is just a naked woman.  Games Workshop has a familiar that is about 15mm tall that is a naked daemoness with horns and tail.  There must be others.

My bias for Slaanesh will be naked women.  (Somehow I don't think you are surprised.)

For what it is worth,  I plan on sculpting up some Slaanesh daemons, based on DaveC's ideas.  I can take a look at sculpting up some fiends of Slaanessh at that time.  And in case no one mentioned it, GW produced Slaneesh fiends for Epic (now Epic 40k, or Epic Armegeddon, or something).  I have a few.  I can post a picture of them when I get home.  They are not as big as you are looking for though.
