I'm hemming and hawing over buying the parts for a conversion I want to try where I take the Custodian Warden's bodies and give them the weapons from the Primaris Hellblasters.

I've seen pictures comparing the two bodies, and they look about the same size, but I've seen no one do a conversion like this. Which makes me take pause, as it seems obvious to me. Maybe no one wants to commit such heresy? Unsure.

Is anyone here intimately familiar with with models or done a similar conversion? Did they fit? Do they look good? Thoughts?

-Cheers!

The FW Sagittarius Guard would give a good idea of what ranged Custodes would look like. I doubt Primaris would be a good look for them, as the Custodes are a fair bit bigger, and the fancier armour may give you problems in attaching the arms.

BIGGER? I was worried the Primaris were taller. Not the other way around! Huh...

You know I'm quite surprised, the Custodians look so much bulkier I must have been mistaken.

Hmmm.... I suppose the chest look a little broader, maybe? See this is why I'm worried! Haha.
