hey guys... im thinking of doing an eastern themed Empire army.

my main two conversions i want to do are 2 legged demigryphs without all of the feline parts.

the other idea is for shaolin monks. I'll use them as flagellants. i'm thinking of buying a flagellant kit, cutting off the offending bits, a little bit of greenstuff help for robes and then buying bald heads but if anyone knows of any third party minis with better poses that would be awesome.

any other ideas would be greatly appreciated!

I'm thinking of swapping the heads on the handgunners as well to make them more of a Japan feel. "dragon rifles' so to speak.

I'll probably do some pegasus captains but use island of blood griffins instead as a counts as.
I like the big griffin kit as a centrepiece.

I'ma lso thinking of using Dark Elves executioners as greatswords. again, doing a head swap. there are lots of cool turban heads available but again... any eastern bits anyone can think of would be awesome!

Those are so good! I just wish there were more than three poses lol. But maybe for warrior priest models they'd work

It might not be as cost efficient but malifuax has some sweet monk like figures.
