Ok so I love the gasmask look on guard. I have been looking at several choices and none of them fit my style. I want a head that ist world war style, something modern.

Steel legion- world war style, very nazi.

Death korps- same

pig iron- kolony militia is pretty much a less expensive of the above

Elysians- These guys look great but their helmets with the glasses look stupid.

If I could someone recreate the rebreather in the command box, it would be perfect. Essentially a rebreather that works with the standard cadian head, as the command box has 6 but theres really only 1 head it works with, not to mention it attached to the chest where normal guardsmans arms would be in the way. So I guess a Elysian style rebreather on a cadian head would be ideal.

Anyone know of any companies that makes something similar? Hell anyone know of a company that makes heads period? All iv seen is pig iron and FW. If sculpting is a solution, anyone know a good one?

Probably somewhere I shouldn't be

Have you looked at West Wind Productions?

Cut the tube and box off and you can attached the rebreather to any "human" head. I've used it on Cadian, Catachan, and Wood Elf heads without issue. The box and tube looks silly to me, anyway.

IIRC, FW sells some Cadian Heads w/ Rebreathers... Just have to take a look (but they may be in upgrade packs, with arms&weapons&torsos, so pretty expensive uh...)

There's also the Max Mini gas mask heads, which are pretty good.

I tend to find the West Wind and Pig Iron heads a little too small for my liking. I'm not sure how the Max Mini heads match up, but I think they will be a better scale.
