Terminator Conversion Idea

[Angelos3000]

I\'m not sure if this was worth posting or not. I wouldn\'t know where else to ask though. So here goes..... I want to do a terminator looking very knight like and i was wondering if a bretonnian knight head would fit in the terminators head slot. The other thing i want to do is to add some GK halberds. This is for an inquisitor and his retinue so i want it looking very grand and noble yet Gothic. Please post and say if you like this idea and if you have any bretonnian heads and terminators could you try slotting it in please.

Thanks in advance for the great help i\'m sure i\'ll get, Sam

The helmeted head from the Empire general plastic kit might look fitting for it.

Sounds like a good idea. One thing i have noticed about using WH Fantasy heads are that they look smaller in scale compared to a 40k marine/termie head. This works quite well since it makes a termie look that little bit bigger but it looks odd when placed next to a normal termie/marine IMHO.

Yeah, sounds interesting.
GW components are designed to be interchangable (Which is why the Marines aren\'t as massive as they should be) so WH stuff should fit fine with 40k stuff...

However, I\'m unfamailiar WH, so I dunno how the head you mentioned would look on the new Termis.

Thanks guys though DAM i think your judgement about scale is wrong as the helmets are bigger than the heads and match up to scale.

These were the heads I was looking to use.

@Angelos3000. It was something i noticed when i was doing some chaos termie conversions. I was going to use chaos knight heads but the head mass seamed to look thinner than a chunky 40k termie helmet so i ended up using a chaos knights head without a helmet which looked better and more in scale. I figured that the helmeted heads would be good for nurgle termies has it made the body look more swollen in comparision. Just something i noticed. But saying this, at the end of the day as long as your happy with the result it doesn\'t really matter

*Edited: Thinking about it i think the problem is that the fantasy heads are thinner but longer which can cause some problems when getting them to fit

Heres the head i decided to use.
