Copycat Copycat Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 The idea I had was to get the FW Conrad Curze model (expensive) and modify it with the helmet bits from th AoS keldrek wraight knight which I already have. I also have 7 pairs of tyranid gargoyle wings left after converting a lord and two rhino chassis vehicles. My question to the Chaos vets is do you thing the Curze model, based on its non-scenic base, needs the demon prince wings to attain a suitable wsisyg profile of a demon prince. Of course I would prefer to use gargoyle wings, but I’m not sure if it’ll create a big enough “footprint,” as I dont have a demon prince model to work with. Any help appreciated.

Charlo Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 As long as the base is big enough should be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azekai Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 Gargoyle wings are nice for regular CSM raptors, might be a little small for a Primarch-sized mini. Unfortunately, I can't offer a decent GW alternative- non-daemonic Primarchs occupy a pretty unique niche in the range.Maybe these wings from Wargames Exclusive? They are meant for an off-brand chaos primarch like thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gederas Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 Gargoyle wings are far too small for a Primarch. However, if you can find some Balrog wings, those are very decently sized: You could also use the Hive Tyrant's wings, as I've seen those used for Daemon Princes as well: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Copycat Copycat Posted July 10, 2018 Author Share Posted July 10, 2018 Thanks for the advice. I know the demon prince comes with a 60mm base but I don’t know what size the Curze model comes with, and it seems to have 2 bases. I really like the look of the hive tyrant wings and will probably go with that to not look too apart from my gargoyle wings. Thanks again for the suggestions.

All of the Primarchs are on a 40mm base that slots into a display base. The display base for Curze is 60mm, as can be seen here:http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-qbBuXnk8Qho/VJOmPwruS4I/AAAAAAAAIQc/C4BqZJUY8EI/s1600/Konrad-Curze-8.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slan Drakkos Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 This thread is so funny. I was just thinking about making a night Lord's army and using a modded Curze as a daemon prince. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azekai Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 Hive tyrant wings (or balrog wings) are gonna be huuuuuge on Curze. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Copycat Copycat Posted July 10, 2018 Author Share Posted July 10, 2018 Hive tyrant wings (or balrog wings) are gonna be huuuuuge on Curze. Exactly what I was afraid of. Ideally, I’d like to find some wings that split the difference, I just dont really have hands on time with models other than the ones I own.

GreaterChickenofTzeentch Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 Hive tyrant wings (or balrog wings) are gonna be huuuuuge on Curze. Bits-ordering actual Daemon Prince wings should do it. They should be the "mid-size" you're looking for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I know. Daemon Prince doesn't follow laws of physics. :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
