Hi there. I'm working on fixing up my Mech-Daemon Prince, and was wondering this: would Heldrake wings be proportionate/look decent on a daemon prince model? I don't know if they're one solid piece, or segments I could tweak.


As a bonus question, would Maulerfiend arms be to big on the same model?

there are 3 different sized wings in the heldrake kit.

the maulerfiend arms would look gorilla sized if using the basic DP kit.

I've seen a large DP built from a Fiend and a Drake, but the components will be too big for a standard DP body I'm afraid.

Ok. Glad I found that out before I sprung for the parts.

But the wings are a possibility? I'm still a little unclear in that.

The wings are quite large but I reckon they could work in a slightly OTT kind of way but still look awesome.

And there isn't really 3 different sizes. There are many different segments to the wings that are differently sized and overlap in layers to make the full wing as seen flying around and burninating MEQ.

Well, my hope is to model him in mid takeoff, and I want wings that support that pose. That's why I thought of those over the standard ones.

Maybe those measurements can help you a bit. I've measured each wing segmets length. Just keep in mind that those are in cm and not inch.
