I am planning to include some Obliterators in my Thousand Sons army, but want them to fit the style of the army, and don't think the standard oblits fit the bill.

I was thinking of maybe converting some Silver Towers Of Tzeentch, or something similar, but afraid it might look too weird (if thats possible with Tzeentch).

Any ideas of thoughts?

Thanks!

A friend of mine (Xas) made them from Tomb King Ushabti :

well, they certailny fit the theme, but don't look ahooty enough.

Maybe a hovering sorcerer with fire all around him? Like an anime character.

Spawn breathing multicolored fire?

Smaller dragons?

Eh, the silver towers would work too. Bastions of chaosy energy...

I like the Silver Towers idea.

I used the Ushabti myself.I painted them black/gold/turquoise exactly how the statues in the King Tutt exhibit  looked like(just like the rest of my army) It fits perfectly into the magic theme of Tzeentch. I never added any weapons to them either. Its easy to imagine them having fiery/energy shooting  weapons. Just because an Oblit can morph into energy based weapons does not mean a fiery sword cannot counts as X weapon  8) Leave the gun toting Oblits to the neanderthal Gods and their followers

Silver Towers is an excellent idea. Old Skool.
