Hi everybody, as my first post i want to show you my last painted miniature. A necromancer that is going to be the general for my skirmish warband.
This is really a test model because i want to make the warband Warcraft themed with all the fluff of the Lich Kng and Naxxrammas.

This is the necromancer itself:






In the future i would like to do a Kel'Thuzad conversion for him so im going to ask, Is there any GW miniature that would look like him without much conversion work?
Arkhan the Black with some skeleton legs would fit i think but i want to hear your opinion better.

Theres is a foto of Kel'Thuzad just in case you dont know him:

Yeah it seems it would be very hard to turn the AOS necromancer into the warcraft guy, they are very far from each other, I can't think of something that is quite close to him. One question though would he even have legs, I do not see any in the picture? Perhaps they are hidden behind that middle flap though.

A cheap and easy way would probably to mooch an Arkhan the Black from someone who bought a mortarch set (and built one of the two vampires), then just combine his upper half with a robe lower half (either the Chaos Sorceror Lord, Changling, or one of the Empire Wizards would do).

Would be pretty close to Kel Thuzad with a minimum of work needed, although the bitz-hunt might be the harder part. Then just add copious amounts of chains to him (the Chaos Vehicle sprue from 40k has a bunch, failing that I'm sure some extra flails from various kits should be lying around).

I'll probably do that. Didnt even thought about de chaos sorcerer lord lower body. I think it will work out.

I'm liking the shades of purple very nice. My daughter would be proud of daddy if i painted something like that
