Hello,

I've been having some not-so-great ideas lately involving expanding my none too painted Iron Warriors. One of the ideas for a cheap points filler would be a unit of lesser daemons. However, Iron Warriors don't really worship the Chaos Gods, they just don't like the Emperor. As a result, they're not big on daemonic stuff. So I was thinking of converting up a unit of mutant constructs using Crypt Ghouls as a base. Observe:

Now for the real question: How would I go about teching these guys up? Randomly gluing Chaos junk to them seems a bit inelegant. Changing out their hands/arms for chainswords may work, but I'm looking for more suggestions. Thanks!

I'll just leave that here....

That is something I can never unsee...

Looks like a naked Deathlok... Marvel character

Actually it's Eddie from Iron Maiden albums. This is an action figure from their album Somewhere In Time.



It was the first thing I thought of when seeing these fused with Iron Warriors in my head for some reason.

you might want to check out Zealot miniatures. They make a range of resin robotic arms that are useful for any mech-inspired conversion

Welp, you sold me on the concept. I hadn't even thought of Eddie!

Thanks for the pertinent link I was thinking I'd have to convert robotic parts from Necrons or what have you, but this is better than buying a box of them.
