Enough of the background. I have allready decided that i will do the baby dragons using some of the old GW small dragon models, which will be proxying great eagles in the army. I wanted to keep to the dragon theme, so that the dragon is present in most units of the army. There will be dragon princes ofc, but then i was stumped on what to use as a frostheart phoenix, as i love their rules, but the official model does not fit into my armys theme at all. So after some thought i was thinking of maybe using a Warhydra model as a heavy proxy for the phoenix. I would cut off two of it's rear most heads and adding it wings from the daemon prince kit to make it look like a three headed dragon that is the Targaryen sigil. Ofc there are no such things in Game of Thrones, but it would serve as a really rare ice dragon that The elf maiden Daenerys and her army had found after her exile and a long march in the deserts of arabya (or any other desert in the warhammer world).

So any comments on my frostheart phoenix proxy idea? Would you let me play it as such?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/535165/5763985.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/535165/5763985.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/535165/5768075.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/535165/5768075.page GMT DP wings are folded up in landing mode. Personally I prefer the open wing look thst Hive Tyrant wings give but maybe not on a War Hydra. Good luck and be sure to post pics when finished.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/535165/5768545.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/535165/5768545.page GMT DP wings just because the hydra model is on the ground so open wings would look a bit silly IMO. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/535165/5769936.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/535165/5769936.page GMT IMO.




Also i decided to make it into a flamespyre phoenix, as it is more to the fluff of dragons than an frostheart phoenix would be

And here is the House Targaryen sigil from Game of Thrones, if someone is not familiar with it.

So basically am trying to recreate that on the tabletop ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/535165/5796637.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/535165/5796637.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/535165/5796763.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/535165/5796763.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/535165/5797207.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/535165/5797207.page GMT DP wings match the scale of the hydra's body. I will be painting the model red as in the sigil.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/535165/5797793.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/535165/5797793.page GMT
As a fan of GOT, I'll watch this with a keen eye.

Good luck with the rest.
