I have converted up 1 unit of Death Cult Assassins from Witch aelves: https://www.games-workshop.com/en-AU/Daughters-Of-Khaine-Witch-Aelves-2018 (with Inquisition tattoos and blades painted like power weapons etc).

If in a tourney would anyone really care if I use them as DCA? Everything in this army is WYSIWYG, the only proxy is these girls as DCA and they are WYSIWYG (I asked and is fine in current tourney, was just wondering for future tourneys).

The only person who can answer that is the TO. I suspect 99% of people will have no problem at all as the models you've used are pretty close to the DCA aesthetic and are unlikely to be mistaken for anything else. There is no general rule for whether conversions are acceptable or not so you have to deal with it on a tournament-by-tournament basis.

Slipspace gave the answer - you will never know unless you ask the TO so any TO could say no but considering the situation I suspect most would be fine with it.

Just be sure to always ask and confirm and have some decent photos to show them so that you can get the details before the event so that, if they are refused, you've time to change your army list.

This. Sounds like it would be fine here but there's no universal tournament rules(or even 40k rules for that matter)

Pretty much every TO goes by the rule of cool. If they like it then no problem.

I use them as company commanders in my IG army.

Chaos isn’t a pit. Chaos is a ladder. Many who try to climb it fail, and never get to try again. The fall breaks them. And some are given a chance to climb, but refuse. They cling to the realm, or love, or the gods…illusions. Only the ladder is real. The climb is all there is, but they’ll never know this. Not until it’s too late.

Cheers all. Ye I ask before every tourney that I want to use them in, was just wondering if other people thought they where close enough to the aesthetic to be viable. IDK how could justify them as company commanders, but with a good paint job and conversion of the entire army... more power to ya.
