I have recently obtained an
AoS Megaboss that has been converted into a
40k MAWB. I have not yet made any of my own changes to this model (nor am I responsible for the paintjob!
), but I am considering personalizing it further. Images spoiler'ed for size:
Now, I feel that I've run into something of a dilemma: I have a bit of unknown origin that I think would make a great helmet/face mask for the Boss, but it cannot fit on the model with the current red metal jaw bit that already is covering part of the face. My question is simply this: will proceeding with the extra conversion improve the look and style of this model, or hinder it somewhat? On one hand, I think changing bits will increase the "
40k-ness" of the model and it will be more distinct from the original
AoS model. One the other hand, I feel some of the fierceness from the more visible face and jaw bit could be lost, and perhaps he'll look too much like a dreadnought? With all this said, I submit this poll to the good people of Dakka for help.
The original look:
