Schurge Posted September 15, 2021 Share Posted September 15, 2021 I run a Scyla Anfanngrim conversion with wings, can upload a picture when I get home if I remember to. If you don't care about tournament legality I would go Creature Caster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khornestar Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 (edited) Go figure, no mention of dread knight base size in the product description. Daemon prince is 60mm. *edit* Didn’t see the most recent page of comments, PutridChoir already mentioned base size.

Naryn Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 Daemon Prince base is 60mm. Dread knight base is 120x92mm base, almost double the size. Edit: grammar Can confirm, I used one as a basis for my Thousand Sons Demon prince back in 6th edition, and had a nightmare of a time reposing the legs to fit on a 60mm.

Kythnos Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 I have used the old Inquisitor Tyrus (is that the right name?) from the now dead Inquisitor game by GW as the base for my IW DP: http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/gallery/image/168948-dsc03662/ Tallarn Commander and Dr_Ruminahui 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marshal Loss Posted September 18, 2021 Share Posted September 18, 2021 I can vouch for Creature Caster, their kits are fantastic, and look suitably imposing too. (Don't judge the partially painted models, they're done now ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goreshed Posted September 19, 2021 Share Posted September 19, 2021 There is a potential that they will resize the daemon prince model if one takes into account Belakor. On one hand I hope they don't resize the model however if they are indeed going to be changing it up so that all the daemon primarchs/daemon princes are about the same size I wouldn't complain too much.

Be'lakor is mostly just better proportioned. His torso and arms are smaller than the customisable prince. Magnus is huge while Be'lakor and Mortarion are similarly sized so no standardisation on Daemon Prince/Primarch size is possible.

Goreshed Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 @Closet Skeleton - I agree with that but the point still stands that they are making the daemon prince models a lot larger than what they used to. I do hope they continue that thread, just like I'd hope that they would do that to the nids and their big bugs. Would be awesome to see the greater sizes really come into play.

Newest Prince other than Be'lakor is Syll'Esske who's still on 60mm. Don't have him to directly compare to Be'lakor. Though if you count Syll as a Daemon Prince(ss) then she's small.

Irate Khornate Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 So, finally having received and assembled my Argel Tal I can say without a doubt I could see someone using him as a Daemon Prince. He's larger than resin Be'lakor and after some comparison the Obliterator is the closest model for a size comparison. Roughly the same size with Tal having a sleeker profile.

Dhar'Neth Posted October 5, 2021 Share Posted October 5, 2021 I think that Argel is far too small to be a DP. However he is perfect to represent Chaos Lord with Exalted Possession, Jump Pack and Pair of lightning claws. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expanding on this, while Syll'Esske is only on a 60mm base, Esske is about the height of a Primarch model (as in 40k Guilliman and the 30k Primarchs) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vesalius Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 Yeah I’d seen a converted Eske used as a fancy demon Lorgar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irate Khornate Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 Yeah I’d seen a converted Eske used as a fancy demon Lorgar. That's one primarch I wouldn't mind if the gw team deviated a bit from older art. Mostly when it comes to the crown of horns on his head and the oversized hands.

dbrollsdice Posted October 7, 2021 Author Share Posted October 7, 2021 Loads of great ideas thanks. That Syll’Esske character might work with a bit of converting most of my units have mark of Slannesh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Ruminahui Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 There is also the other new AoS demon prince that is about the same size as Syll'Esske (I think) that you could try: https://www.games-workshop.com/en-US/Hedonites-Of-Slaanesh-Sigvald-Prince-Of-Slaanesh-2020 Or the new AoS 2-in-1 slaneshi character kit, though they may be too large: https://www.games-workshop.com/en-US/Dexcessa-The-Talon-Of-Slaanesh-2021 https://www.games-workshop.com/en-US/Synessa-the-Voice-of-Slaanesh-2021 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I’d seen a converted Eske used as a fancy demon Lorgar. That's one primarch I wouldn't mind if the gw team deviated a bit from older art. Mostly when it comes to the crown of horns on his head and the oversized hands. I'd be pretty happy if Fulgrim was nothing like the most recent load of art in detail. Want the snake legs and wings but the previous interpretations are bad. I don't care if Angron looks a lot less 'generic Bloodthirster' either.

I think they could make good conversion bait Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Ruminahui Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 (edited) Yeah, I figured the bodies themselves are fairly small - my bigger concern is their high and width of their "wings". Edited October 18, 2021 by Dr_Ruminahui Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sitnam Posted October 28, 2021 Share Posted October 28, 2021 Maybe just exclude the "wings?" I'm not sure if it'll work, not too hip on that kit. Speaking of alternative DP, I will be making a Tzeentch Daemon prince out of the AoS Corpse-Rippa Vulcha. Given that I dont play Tabletop, I dont quite care if it wont be "legal" size. I just need an excuse to buy that glorious bird Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
