I made a palanquin conversion, and it's actually easier than you think. First, you buy some Nurglings. Then, you take the one layer of Nurglings that has that one nurgling hanging off to the right with one horn and build a Nurgling swarm using that, assembled as normal. Then, take popsicle sticks and cut them into tiny rectangular planks, scoring them up and down with a hobby knife to simulate wear and age. Then glue them together into a small flat panel. I put two little planks down to support the ones that actually made the floor of the seat. Make sure it's just the right size for you to fit your Word Bearer on, leaving some room to add arms to the ends of it (You'll want the arms to be sitting on the floor for structural stability.) Then center it over that middle row of Nurlings, but not over the back row. You'll need that back row to provide an extra layer of support against the back of the chair, they'll essentially be pressing into it, which is what you want. So now take some clippers to the Nurglings in the middle row, to the point where the Nurgling in the front and center of that middle row has virtually no horns left (don't remove the horns completely, just what you need to so that the seat will sit flatly... you'll want the stumps there to imply that that Nurgling still has horns. Then glue in place. From that point, it should be fairly easy to just make another panel of tiny worn planks for the back of the chair, and two smaller ones for the arms. Your Palanquin is now ready for seating.

Oh, and the reason that middle layer is so important is because I left that horn to help support the seat. I put the seat right up against it, and it sits along the arm of the chair quite well.
