so i want to make a very special daemon prince to lead my army of CSM, i already have a GW daemon prince model so im not going to buy another one as they'll look the same ive looked at the Gulavhar model from LOTR but im not sure what size it is, also is the Balrog model is getting a bit cliche? any suggestions for models would be appreciated(BTW i dont mind converting )
thanks for reading, and for any replys.

1: There are a lot of Reaper models that would work and the bones ones are quite cheep. (if you don't mind using non GW models)

2: You can also look up the old inquisitor models and use the space marine, I seem to remember that a daemon prince can get power armor.

3: Or another idea, ages ago I converted a dreadnought to a ork warboss, I basically sculpted an ork bursting out of the Dreadnought as if he was wearing it for armor. I bet something like that could work for CSM. Imagine the gods gifting a dreadnought with a new demon body while he is still in the dreadnought.

I also wanted something similar to your idea and here is what I did. I straightened my Gw prince as they are like crouching. I fixed the knees and thighs mainly. Hacking through a metal mini can be sometimes daunting but if you take your time and with patience, you will be rewarded. His wings are magnetised and they are off a dragon or something from fantasy. E bay is your friend. Hope this helped my fellow chaotic general.

Like this!

Any preference on the chaos god? Being specific with that would greatly help.
I will add more later, if you want a specific realm, but these are some good undivided ones.

Edit: I went on a little spree and linked a lot. Like a lot.

OOOOOK. I'm done now.

I'm currently working on building a daemon prince out of green stuff and a gw dreadknight kit for my iron warriors you could try something like that

GW actually sells several daemon prince models:

-The plastic one with an option for wings

-Be'Lakor

-A Nurgle Daemon Prince

-CSM Daemon Prince in resin (or metal if you find an old one on ebay)

The latter two don't have wings, but these are easy to attach with greenstuff (GW sell both Pegasus wings and Dragon wings on their website, under Fantasy's Bitz section).

I'm not sure how big it is, but Scibor's Angel of Death looks really good from the pics: http://sciborminiatures.com/en_,shop.php?art=1292

This guy from Titan Forge is also pretty impressive:

Forgive the photo quality, but here are my own daemon princes in various stages of completion:


The one that's just primed black is Lich Lord Terminus (or something) from the Warmachine Cryx Range. The Ogre one is a Ogre Kingdom Firebelly with this jetpack: http://www.spellcrow.com/flying-engine-p-167.html (this is intended to go with a Daemon Prince-looking model that you might also like)

thanks for all the replies, its helped me out, especially the linking spree

oOOOOOOOO cool Smoke spitting DP using OK stuff.
