Frater Cornelius Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 Aight, I have 30 Horrors sitting next to me and I am wondering how to make them fit my style. I am aiming for a machine-styled army. Daemon possessed forge ship or something like that. My army has a heavy Tzeentch component, but converting DP and Fatey is easily. They are forge masters of sort, half metal half flesh. Heralds are sorta tech-magi, mixed horror bits, necrons and tech priests that control the various machines of war and mindless units husks (plaguebearers). Soulgrinders are mixed with Dreadnoughts and given massive exhaust pipes with massive flames coming out of 'em... and loads of other conversions. Horrors are the main workers of the forge (mixing warp shenanigans and tech stiff). But they are just too random to allow any set kit bashing but they are too fleshy to fit that heavy metal style I am going for. So, do you have any ideas how to make horrors more metal (material that is, in spirit they are already very metal :D)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hornywingythingy Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 Do you have any cron parts you could try melding them with? Not sure how well it'd work but that's my first instinct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frater Cornelius Posted July 28, 2014 Author Share Posted July 28, 2014 They don't really fit together. Personally, the only thing that came to my mind was a robotic back piece fused with torso and metal tendrils. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDevourer Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 Maybe slice through a leg here and there and have a thinner piston between the severed parts?. As if the horrors were robots that had skin pulled over them? You could do the same for the arms. I also forward metal back pieces and tendrils... that should look pretty neat ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xenith Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Paint them silver. Sentient Mercury, anyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Mustard Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 That sounds like a very cool theme for an army I would add mechanical arms from the talos and and ork kits. The sky is the limit with Tzeench in conversion. You could add anything such as reactors, tubes, exhaust (like you did), arms, extra necron legs (spider mech like?), space marines arms that you paint mechanical, tentacles or cables, vials, shoulder pads that can be screwed on them, I would think them as servitors or pittslaves so any tools, chainsaw, blades, drill, would be good.

Brother Ambroz Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Paint them silver. Sentient Mercury, anyone? This seems like a cool and easy way to do it, though it sounds like the OP is pretty skilled with conversions so he might want to do more. That being said I think you should post some pictures of your army! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

incinerator950 Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 I've thought about making them look like glass shards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kierdale Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 Or try wiring their limbs (and orifices) with guitar or finer wire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
