The FW myrmidons are far too bulky for my purposes. What I am going for is a smaller thinner figure with most of his body and implants disguised by ill fitting robes.

Some of them look pretty good, but they fall victim to my current issues with the Mechanicus models, which is very visible faces. Will think about it though but looking for something I can build off of GW stuff (for proper scaling.)

The necretex model I have has no visible face beneath his hood. They are perfectly scaled with GW models. Automatically Appended Next Post: Well, he's got like a Darth Sideous chin. That's about it. Automatically Appended Next Post: Though for my Techpriest Auxilia, I used Dark Angels veterans with green stuffed cloth shoulders. I carved out the power armored faces and replaced them with tech bits. They came out very similar to the GW techpriest.

Thanks for the help but I don't really like the style of the Necretex. The DA thing could work but I am looking for a very thin and emaciated figure, which I felt the Tech Priest and DA was not.
