I’d like to extend the cold theme from the fur lined pioneer head to my hearthkyn.
Can anyone point out some fur lined hooded heads that might work on regular votann like the pioneers have?
Also looking for stowage to add to my sagitaur to extend the explorer ready for anything theme.
Any suggestions?

No idea on the heads, but I know the land speeder storm and marine repulsors have some random stowage bits.

Found some heads from puppetswar but they’re meant for humans. Wonder how they’ll look… ugh

Oathmark Dwarves might be worth a look.

"But me no buts! Our comrades get hurt. Our friends die. Falkenburg is a knight who swore an oath to serve the church and to defend the weak. He'd be the first to tell you to stop puling and start planning. Because what we are doing-at risk to ourselves-is what we have sworn to do. The West relies on us. It is a risk we take with pride. It is an oath we honour. Even when some soft southern burgher mutters about us, we know the reason he sleeps soft and comfortable, why his wife is able to complain about the price of cabbages as her most serious problem and why his children dare to throw dung and yell "Knot" when we pass. It's because we are what we are. For all our faults we stand for law and light.

For stowage, there are loads of cheap 1:35 stowage sets you can use. Alternatively, Treadhead Rad have an amazing set of stls for free

Puppetswar makes these Arctic Troopers heads:
Spoiler:
They also make masked ones too
Spoiler:
I just don't know how they scale/fit with the Votann kits.

Regarding scale of Puppetswar heads: the left two dudes in this picture have them and the left body is a GW guardsman. Hope that helps.

Usually puppetswar heads don't look too small on SM bodies, so I would assume they should be fine for Voltan


On stowage: Mortian also produces two nice sets:

I thought it looked pretty good too.
It’s a little hard to get it in, i had to cut most of the back of the head off to do it 😜
Maybe I’ll take a file to it and knock it down a bit more.

That's always a thing with puppetswar. I tend to use a cutter to get the base of the neck in rough shape and then sand them down until they fit.

Yeah the neck had to come off and most of the back of the head. I may try to make the hole in the torso bigger instead on the next one.
