Hello and thanks for stopping by. I've been building this terminator lord on and off, and now I think I'm nearing its completion. What I require now is a fitting head for the lord. I can't seem to decide on one. I can sculpt to a certain extent, and I have access to most bits (buying custom bits isn't out of the question). Descriptions of a helmet type might do as well.
Any suggestions on what head I should use for this terminator lord, to fit the theme of the marine beside it?

In keeping with the theme of the other marine I think anything that has a rounded appearance (the details on regular marine helmets being quite angular)
I assume you're going for a somewhat Nurgley theme so anything gas-mask like might be cool.

Good Luck

You could go with the nurgle champion head from the regular CSM kit.

+1 to Winter's suggestion... that looks like it sort of fits in with what you're going for OP

Something that can portray Nurgle, but not so much that I can't use this force as loyalists as well would be what I'm driving at. I agree that lots of marines have a very angled helmet, which is why i required help to find another one. I was thinking gas-masky too but I haven't seen any terminator-compatible gas masks that look nice so far.

Hmm, I'm not too into power armoured miniatures being helmet-less unless there's a reason for it. I've got lots of zombie heads though, so I'll go and try it!

Yeah, i was thinking of that as well. I'm not sure if I can use it though, because it looks extremely... Chaotic. Hehe.

Thanks for the replies, guys.

More input would be nice, too! : )

Might I suggest removing the horn and gore and adding cables coming out of the side of the helmet where the horn protrudes and running them around his head and into the back of the gorget.
