I used them, I feel like the Halberds and Staff actually fit well with the Thousand Sons egyptian theme. Grey Knights and Thousand Sons are also similar in being mostly composed of Psykers. Since Thousand Sons prize knowledge so much the books on the armour seemed fitting.

Well I think they came out great !

Well, these Chaos Chosen were my first conversion ever, as well as my first time messing with green stuff, and I'm pretty satisfied with them overall. Some of the greenstuff rocks they're standing on look very artificial and bland, but it was a learning process.

That actually works pretty well. not going to lie Grey Knight = Thousand Sons. I completely agree.

That's an Apoc superheavy, if I ever saw one.
Main gun's probably Strength D, 10" template (or whatever that huge, non-AB template is) with basically unlimited range, as long as it has line of sight.

I will want to see it when it is finished as without paint and being finished just looks like a huge collection of guns glued onto a tank, (Which is basically how Tau do it in the first place)

Oh I don't play 40k any more TBH, I just convert stuff, however back in the day when I finished this guy, him and his kill team only ever got used in a Apoc game, so I just used them as space marine scouts, seemed fitting back then (when scouts had WS 4).

love the conversion!
just by looking at the pics i can tell you he used an oop dark eldar reaver jetbike combined with a space marine attack bike. the reaver was cut in half and part of it was added to the front of the SM bike after the front wheel and forks were removed, same goes for the back end. past that i can't be sure of what else he did.
