So a friend of mine out in Washington State who has helped me out with a lot of business lately said he needed a chaos sorcerer. So I dug into the bits box(of which is huge since I am bitzing stuff out and have tons of leftovers), and after a totaly of 75minutes over two nights this is what I came up with for him. He is going to paint it but I just thought it would be fun. I left some room at the top of the standard with the metal rods so he could add two more heads on them. He is a avid nightlords players and has won conquest northwest two years in a row now for overall. With that here's the pics enjoy:

Front shot, since I didn't have a Space marine missile hand on hand, I decided that he would be cuping his hand as a force type thing. Today I added a horned skull to it as I just felt it appropriate.

Using Bits from Dragonforge, and from the seekers of slaanesh I crafted the force staff. Being sorcerers make packs with daemons for their powers I felt the corrupt ness appropriate.

I just thought since he was a character that a standard was well deserved.

"Alas poor Urik, I knew him well"
Well I hope you all like him, as I feel he should be a fine xmas gift, and goes to show that with $3-$5 dollars worth of bits from my ebay store what you can accomplish.

Great looking conversion! Nice Job!
The addition skull is very appropriate, makes it full of win!

Thanks, and all I used (minus the dragonforge bits) came from my ebay bits store. http://stores.ebay.com/battleroadgamesandhobbies. I will have more stuff at the end of the month since ebay lifts our limit then on auctions. Nice simple $3-$5 xmas gift.

Looks good man, pretty characterful conversion!
like what you did with the staff. that's guitar wire amirite?

Actually that is pewter wire, not guitar wire. Several years back Dave Taylor told me about dragonforge. Since then I have been hooked. Here is a link to his website, but the wire is under conversion bits. I believe he is having a sale as well atm.

Looks very cool. Make sure to show him again when he's got paint.

to make it a little more evil looking, i would use a jewelers saw to remove the skull face from the symbol on the staff, turn the staff around and over, file the front smooth, and reposition the skull rightside up.

This will make the spikes go upward instead of downword, which to me looks more viscous and less limp.

Nice conversion work. I like the bo staff

Nice work,have you painted it yet buddy?

Looks great. The staff is my favorite part. Did you use wires for the coil around the staff pole?
