Today while visiting the LFGS, I saw a box of cultists (the small £6 one) and it all came to me. After the release of the DV box, I completely forgot about these guys and they are fairly cheap on Ebay at the moment.

Does anyone had a similar idea? I did a search and could only find a conversion for psycher henchmen - and I am more thinking about warrior acolytes - both with the laspistol/chainsword as well as boltguns/ multimeltas.

How hard would it be to change the weapons on these guys to the Imperial counterparts? Could the stub-pistol pass by a laspistol?

How hard would it be to scratch the chaos symbols/tattoos off the guys?

Would you frown upon these conversions if you saw them on a tabletop, on the opposite side? Should I stick with the boring and more expensive Imperial Guard/Scout conversions?

Thanks,

I cleaned up some khorne beserkers I got from a friend of all chaos stuff and now they are part of my death company for BA.

I think what you would need is: some greenstuff, extra heads to replace the ones you can't clean up a sharp xacto blade and a file. Some extra weapons bits ie bolters or special weapons for how you want to fit them.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/503139/5216208.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/503139/5216208.page GMT Converting Chaos Cultists into GK Warrior Acolytes http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/503139/5216294.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/503139/5216294.page GMT Converting Chaos Cultists into GK Warrior Acolytes

They are easy to clean up, in fact you could probably use most of them straight out the box!


I disagree slightly there. They all have a chaos-esque disc on them & the gas masks need work because they're rather nurglesque some if them. Is it hard to convert them though? Not really. I've turned several into gangers for necromunda & I'm considering trying to acquire some more of the fellows with the nurgle gas masks to make into a CCS for Odon from IA11 whom I made from the traitor commissar. Also made a priest from the hooded fellow.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/503139/5216328.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/503139/5216328.page GMT Converting Chaos Cultists into GK Warrior Acolytes http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/503139/5217191.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/503139/5217191.page GMT Re:Converting Chaos Cultists into GK Warrior Acolytes http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/503139/5224997.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/503139/5224997.page GMT Re:Converting Chaos Cultists into GK Warrior Acolytes
