My only thing is trying to figure out how I want that rift to look. I've drawn several and I can't really pick. My two favorites are the typical swirl pattern and then a sort of 'exploded' look.

I think the sort of ' Explode ' pattern would be more appropriate as it is a summoning made from the sacrifice of guardsman it has to be gruesome , i think a swirl is more like ' a jeany in a bottle ' if you get where im coming from.

Let me know what you think.

Take care.

I agree, and explosion of blood would be more appropriate.
Think 'summoning bloodthirster from Dawn of War'

I'm sorry, I've never played DoW. I know, I know... fail...

Any who, I was thinking of the IG mounted on the bleeder spike and the blood sort of coming up and out in a cone like shape (this will help with mounting and leading from the waist of my DP to the upper body). I'm working on the priest to use to summon as well. Any suggestions on who I should use or if I should just sort of make my own priest?

Use an IG and replace the weapons and head.
And in DoW, when you summon the bloodthirster, the guy floats in the air, you hear a bone-crunching sound, and he explodes. The entire screen is filled with blood as the bloosthirster uncurls and then unfurls his wings. Epic.

Wow... that's pretty epic. May save that "float and 'splode" idea for another time.

Well, I'm having a damned time trying to get some pieces I need to do this build. It's actually starting to piss me off, seeing as I had planned to make a purchase for quite a bit of stuff but that may fall through. So, everything is just going to hell in a rather quick manner.

Don't worry though, I'm still going to try and get and finish everything.

well i hope everything works out you have the making of a grand vignette

Well, this is sort of a dead thread right now but I'm in a bit of a money crunch (but really, who isn't?) so I don't have to money for this as of right now. I am still making plans on doing this as well doing some DKOK units. Maybe Traitor Guard DKOK? Not sure but, hopefully, I'll get a break these next few checks.
