(if you wanna skip the back story on why I'm doing this then skip the paragraph)

okay okay, bare with me here. This started out as a joke last night when i was putting together my Khorne beserkers but.....I have 3 zerkers I have that i didn't put an arm on because i need to get power fists for them still. A guy came up to me and saw one of my zerkers without any arms on when the rest of my army had been all put together. He made a joke after hearing i still needed the PF and said "So then thats your zerker that bashes his head through tanks" and although i thought the joke was kinda funny it made me start thinking about it, and now i kinda wanna paint and field him as my Skull Champion with no arms. I want him to headbutt tanks (acting like a PF) and shooting his bolter from his mouth. I'm completely willing to do this but.....

How do I make a khorne bezerkers head look like it could bust through a tank. 1 guy suggested i put a spike on it, but i wanna make it look a bit more ridiculous than a plain spike. Any ideas

Get a power fist.
Trim it down somehwat.
Get a head.
Tim that down (So you have the neck)
Clean them up so the neck and the power fist fit well.
Glue together.
Glue on Mr. Zerkers head place thingy
You now have a power fist/head.

that would be pretty funny but i will keep it in mind for a back up, i actually havent seen the power fist yet, i will probably be getting some from a blood angel player, but is there a way to do it without actually putting a hand on his head?

**purplefood**

A way to make a head that looks like it should be able to smash through tanks? Without using a Pfist instead and saying he's simply a mutant? Not as far as i know...

**MechaEmperor7000**

make the decorations on his head into chainaxes. And make them into bull horns. That way it'd look like his helmet is a chainfist.

**Lonecoon**

Bullhorns is a great idea. Start there and work your way up.

**zhangbob**

imagination

remember these are mad, blood lusted, battle hardened warriors who can glance/ penetrate light vehicles with their normal melee on a charge. I dont think its too far out there that one of them could probably pound his head threw a tank while he's in his frenzy. Just gotta give him a little aesthetic help, like something sharp or an over plated head or something

oh bull horns do sound fun

You could always model slightly bent and crumpled pointy bits that are on the helmet usually.

A crown of chainswords.

A pachycephalosaurus head.

A Zinedine Zidane jersey.

I have, somewhere, a Citadel fig of Mean Machine Angel from the Judge Dredd RPG (long OOP, about a zillion years ago.). Maybe model your conversion on him? Or scour ebay for one??

Actually, I found some...

Reinforce the neck, so he looks like Juggernaut from X-men.

PFFT who needs terminaters when you have zerkers

**Budgie**

Id think some kind of stumps on the shoulders would be in order to add a finished look... I wouldnt want the guy to look like the arms were just snapped off..
