I'm not sure if General Discussion is the right place to post this.

While sniffing around for second-hand models, I found this. I'm contemplating buying it to use as a Slaaneshi Daemon Prince, depending mainly on how tall it is. However, does anyone know what it actually is? I only guessed Slaanesh due to the high number of arms.

Conversion. Tail is from the Flying Tyrant, looks like the body is from a daemon prince. Not sure about the rest.

Conversion made mostly from the flying Hive Tyrant kit and the plastic Daemon Prince.

That's definitely a conversion.

- Daemon Prince body and arms
- Hive Tyrant Lash Whip
- Defiler helmet
- Flyrant tail

Playing mostly Necromunda and Battletech, Malifaux is awesome too!

Tail and whip is Tyranid, the rest is various Daemon Prince/chaosy bits.

Looks like it was intended to be a Slanneshi DP.

That explains why I couldn't find it anywhere, I haven't played against enough Tyranids to recognise the tail . Thanks for the quick responses guys .

It looks like a D&D Gorgon (I probably got this muddled up with something else), a 4-armed snake creature, like Medusa from one of the old films.

But, yeah, it's a kitbash.

Someone's attempt to make Fulgrim.

"'players must agree how they are going to select their armies, and if any restrictions apply to the number and type of models they can use."

This is an actual rule in the actual rulebook. Quit whining about how you can imagine someone's army touching you in a bad place and play by the actual rules.

As others have said, definately a mix of tyranid and daemon prince.

I say go for it, it looks awesome and would be perfect for a slaaneshi prince!

Spot on this one, with one minor addition in case it wasn't clear. Well done.

It's a great conversion, by any standard. Unfortunately it was sold to another lucky gamer overnight curse my need for sleep. It's given me a few ideas though, I might try and put something similar together in the future (I'd like something that would work as a DP or a Greater Daemon, and I'm not a fan of the Keeper of Secrets model).

Um, I imagine the Daemon Prince of sensation and pleasure can be whatever color he choses and probably changes from minute to minute.

On a side note, why is the paint called "tin bitz"? Tin's much more greyish than that.
