I need help making a knight for a horus heresy campaign in a few months. any ideas on parts, bits, and paints would really help

Here is a WIP thread that has some thoughts:

I am sure if you do a search you will find some more. Most of the ones I have seen are based around Defiler legs.

a defiler is generally a great starting place.
alot of people will use the sentinel cockpit for a head.
the defiler provides most of the parts though

Please post questions about modeling in the Painting and Modeling forum.

Moving now. . .

Defiler with a Sentinal Cockpit for a head, now that is interesting, then maybe leave the center set of legs out and go for more of a centaur style look. How jointed are the legs could they be straightened more. Because that would bring the body up. HHHHHUUUMMMMM - evil ideas formulating.

ya the defiler head is interesting. wat bout legs? idk bout centaur style thats iffy but i appreciate the help

Historically only the Eldar had centaur-style knights, but don't let that stop you
