Zoanthrope Conversion?

[rick15]

Just out of curiosity, has anyone tried to convert any other Nid models to Zoanthropes? Kind of curious if it can be done and how it would look.

well, first off, obviously a warrior body would need to be used. Then what I would do is attach a whole wod of GS to a gaunt head, detailing it. Probably spinefist arms with custom ScyTals would be a good size, and for the lowest arms maybe just Green Stuffed.

For a conversion like this, GS is a must.

This is what I came up with. had a spare 2nd ed head from when I made my hive ships killed a gaunt body and had a war tail in my bits box

That looks rather cute, with all those little arms flailing out.

HAHA, not bad, not bad at all.

Im just not sure how much i like the models right now. I know i have 3 old zoantropes with the big lookin predator heads. But im considering them for my army. And wanted something different.

I used old Ravener bodies and Genestealer arms on mine.


Hydra is making this beastie over at warpshadow without any Thrope bitzs.

Nice gs work but the head seems too small and it too resembles a legless warrior to me. I would guess it was some sort of ravener conversion before I thought Zoanthrope.

I used the old metal tyrant heads on zoanthrope bodies on mine. You can see one in the upper right of this pic:

I currently don't have any single close up pics of them sorry.
