I have looked around (not very hard) for Grey Knight in Power armor heads. I'm hoping I can go a slightly less expensive (and more easily modified) alternative than spending more than $6 each for them. All I really need are the heads.

Anyone know a place?

The heads aren't separate.

The GK bodies are cast in one piece. Head, body, legs and left arm are all one piece.

I know that Black Templar use crusader pattern helmets as well. Perhaps a search for those might be more fruitful.

Yes, I know. However, most of their equipment isn't that difficult to customize.

I'm trying to use standard Marines and turn them into PAGK. Most of it is pretty easy EXCEPT the head.

Nice Luna, I'll remember that.

But I need PAGK heads, not Terminators.

You can do the same method on a smaller scale.

I bought a couple of sprues of BT upgrades when I needed some PAGK to bulk out a couple of squads (the metals were out of stock, and I had spare plastic SM).

I used the gorget breastplates (sgt ones) and crusader helmets (with templar crosses removed).

Close enough, and they hide in the back of the squads, so don't attract attention.

A little work and some greenstuff can work on Mk VII heads too.

Why not use the Company Champion's head and body? It looks fairly similar.

Suffused with the dying memories of Sanguinus, the warriors of the Death Company seek only one thing: death in battle fighting against the enemies of the Emperor.
