Hey all sorry i havent been on for a while, not been to well,

Anyway i have this idea for an army, just trying to figure out the best way of modeling and show casing it. I am going to be using IG as my army but want to turn them into a Chaos/Renagagde looking Regiment and make them look undead, but im unsure of the way to do this, im thinking of using heads from necrons or maybe from the fantasy undead units..

how ever i want to go futher but the problem is im unsure what arms to use, and maybe legs on a few models as well, any ideas???

Zombie parts will help. Mantic and GW parts are great although might need a bit of GS to look naturally connected to flak armor. Maybe even Studio Miniatures german zombies for more of a military look

You could alternatively use skeleton parts, I dont see too many of those

You could use Cadians as the base troops and sub out some appendages for Catachan parts, and then cut out some fleshy parts.

You can spice them up with zombie Nazis from Westwind:

+1 to Kenshin620: Zombie parts are your friend. A quick gallery search will show some great examples.

So much heresy! Love the concept man, very original yet simple.

I've got a fair few conversions based on undead or cultist renegades that work in this kind of army in my P&M blog, I'm by no means the only one nor one of the best but if you need any inspiration it's always there.
