Well, I guess not my first. I did make the first Lictor already, but I only recently decided to re-do the scything talons (which were basically the larger set of talons chopped & glued to the smaller arms + some spikes on top). Needless to say, it looked very un-lictorish. I didn't want this to be the classic "noob stuck a Genestealer feeder tendrils head on a Warrior."

So here it is.






Head: Warrior head with the back of the plates rounded off, Genestealer Feeder Tendrils head modified to fit in the head space, GS plate added in front.
Body: GS spikes on legs, GS plates on feet, Claws on sides of hooves added (they're actually the pointy bit on the bottom of the Warrior Deathspitter), Tail claw thing is a GSed on bit from some accessory sprue.
Talons: Pretty much the best thing about this, imo. The actual body of the talons are shaped and bent sprue. The plates on top are completely scratchbuilt, as are the membranes. Vent.. thingies were added to the left arm with GS, spikey bits underneath the talons are clipped from Gaunt Devourers(I think), and finally, the claws on the ends of the talons are the "bayonet" piece from Carnifex Venom Cannons.

Still to do: Glue on the Rending Claws, blend the spikey bits on the hooves in with GS.

Not to shabby, not to shabby at all.
That is a job well done.

Yeah, i agree with Krellnus. Its a beastly Lictor COnversion and no mistake

Oh man! Now I'm going to have to find that spare Warrior body to make my own! Curse you and your creative ways!

Awh, thanks guys!

One of the better Warrior to Lictor conversions I've seen, and not too bad on the Green Stuff for a first conversion either.

Pretty damn nice.

Looking good so far...

It's actually almost completely painted by now (took me long enough. :|), so I'll post pictures when that's done.

very nice. I cant wait to see it painted.

Reminds me of the one from the cinematic trailer for DoW2. Very nice.

Hah, I have the same reaction every time he or one of the others who's stuff I like comments on mine.

Hey now, I like my Warrior-with-Ymgarl-head Lictors!

Nice work on yours though.

Not saying it's the wrong way of course. I just feel like more could be done with those to make them look more accurate.

But thank you!

Not bad, not bad at all.

Its a pretty decent work you did there.

i like it

Thanks guys.

Great job, now get it painted and pictured
