I don't know how I didn't see this for myself earlier. A user over at 40konline mentioned using Incubi in place of Banshees using the ally rules.

Now I don't intend to replace my Banshees with Incubi but incorporate them fluffwise into my army as a Biel Tan only aspect. I can even take Drazhar (A total of 8 Phoenix Lords wooo! Yea they suck but something else to paint and play with is always good).
To take allies I'll need to take a troops choice. Simple enough - converted warriors. I'm thinking of calling them "Thorn Guardians". Currently Im thinking simply Guardians with a weapon swap and possibly painting their colours inverted to my normal guardians. I'm not sure if I'll run them using a Dark/Brightlance on a weapon platform or if I'll have him holding it like the DEldar Warriors do. I don't want to run weapons other than the Lance as giving the Thorn Guardians splinter weapons is pushing it enough as it is.
Onto the Incubi. I think the only work that needs to be done is greenstuff the crack in the spirit stones upon their breast.
Drazhar. Such a dated model. Do I want to convert my own?
Raider conversion. This bit will be the hardest I think. How to make a Raider look like an open topped Wave Serpent? Maybe something like an elongated Venom/Vyper? I'll have to go hunt background sources to see what kind of images I can find. Very excited.
Edit: This conversion of Drazhar is awesome! Look at possibly emulating this.
hey, anyways, I like your new "Painting schedule" box on the side. :) ImageShack pops windows out though. Have you tried Picasa? :)
ReplyDeleteNo I havent tried that. I have all my images at ImageShack so I just stick to that :)
