Hi folks,

I've recently gotten back into 40K and want to truescale/make bigger most/all of my current army in line with the new primaris marines. I don't mind things like a predator or spawn being smaller because I can imagine them varying in size anyway, but transports and "monstrous vehicles" like the Defiler and Hellbrute I would prefer to have much bigger.

I have had an idea to lengthen the Defilers legs using the Thermic Plasma Conduits and maybe adding some ork bitz to make it looks more chaotic (Because it honestly looks very tame when compared to newer chaos models) such as adding parts of the Ork Truck, the Deff Dredd and maybe the morkogorkanaut (If you get two full claws that are bigger than the Defilers front claws).

I'm not sure how to make the main body and chest of the Defiler bigger/better though.

Does anyone else have any ideas?


Thanks in advance,
Marc

how about converting this?

I would Bubber, but this model would likely be used in GW stores so I want to try keeping third party bits to a minimum

Thanks anyway!

For the torso, maybe the hull of a Leman Russ tank?
Or even an imperial knight, swap out the head for the cannon, use the legs and weapons for other bits.

The easy (although expensive) way is to add more legs for the scorpion look
