I could use some sage advice.
I’m planning a djinn conversion, should it be magnus the red size, Ogroid size or daemon prince size? (Size referring to the base model that will be used).

I’m sure it would help decide what function it would have but it could be a number of things in AoS, celestant prime, slann, Phoenix etc.

The only known images of said djinn are from warmaster and dreadfleet (technically elementals).

the warmaster one isn’t that huge next to the human but considering the scale and tech of the time for making those who knows how accurate that’s supposed to be of a representation, same for the elementals on the flaming scimitar, they are quite massive compared to the ship..


Both models have their pros and cons. For example the Ogroid’s body is very thick, the face(I think is perfect) is a baby one, the neck is massive and the arms are also disproportionate.
A lot of work would be needed to make the torso not so thick to then make it not have such a funky neck lol.
Magnus has two arm sizes, so I’d have to sculpt a new one, also I can’t seem to order his eyeball belt buckle anywhere!


if anyone’s got some thoughts on how large it should I would appreciate it.
