NEW - Dark Magic Dice - Khaine Dice & Tullaris Conversion

Post by Ragian Cain »

EDIT: Now with Dark Magic winds of magic dice!

Wanted to share my new Khaine D6, I'm hoping they are blessed!

Also, has anyone converted Tullaris? I think the unit champion of the last ed (Fitzpatrick) sculpts is perfect for him. If that's the case I need to convert a new unit champion. Any ideas or insight are welcome!

I looked at giving one of the rank and file Execs a un-helmeted head, however when I looked at it their hair is all over the model!

Cheers.

Nice dice indeed! Did you buy them or made them yourself?

I have converted the old executioner champion for Tullaris. Corsair head and slightly changed sword:

Thats a smooth conversion Jarvax, I'm only a bit put off that side by side with the same un-converted model for a unit champion will look weird...

Well, I don't have the unconverted champion any more, so I will use the Tullaris model for both roles.

Wait a minute... Do you get to use Tullaris in a unit WITH the normal champion now or was it always that way? I always thought Tullaris was an upgrade for the champion.

There used to be an article about converting him on the GW site, same as with Kouran.
May be somebody still has those articles, 'cause GW no longer has the painting and conversion articles on their site.
How about using the greatweapon dreadlord?

To be honest i'm still hoping the rumors are true, and that there is a model comming in the 2nd wave.

Novembers 2nd wave? I'd have imagined he would have been in the book if that's the case.

Shame Morathi & Malekith are also poop. Least you can actually get them still!

With the level of plastic CAD sculpts they are churning out its a real shame for the 'most beautiful elf in existence' to still look like a blow up sex doll.

Fingers crossed!

Haha that made me laugh.

At the moment I'm using the dreadlord shown above. But I hope to make something outof the coming executioner box.
I plan to use the exe box to make a custom malus too. Since it has a hand holding a head.

Intended for a 5 + ward save of the COB buff, this converted model also fits for Tullaris. I'm thinking in further conversion with the sword and face as Tullaris will play a major role in my army

@ Jarvax, the corsair head is perfect for the job.

Where did you get the dice done? I am thinking of getting something similar myself.

Here is my Tullaris conversion from the same unit champion, with just a head and weapon swap - also faced him up at a different angle on the base.

Another top conversion dude!

As for the dice they are from Chessex, had a bunch of designs done by the craftsmen there.
