<![CDATA[Latest posts for the thread "Using Van Saar arms to make Inquisition Storm Troopers?"]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/8.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net Using Van Saar arms to make Inquisition Storm Troopers? My main question is how well those arms would fit and how?

I thought of trimming down the ball joints and using those skull shoulder pads that come with cadian vehicle kits.

Any other ideas would be greatly appreciated if you have any!]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/773904/10408378.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/773904/10408378.page GMT Using Van Saar arms to make Inquisition Storm Troopers? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/773904/10408546.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/773904/10408546.page GMT Using Van Saar arms to make Inquisition Storm Troopers?

Why not just use the Van Saar minis? Why bother with ugly and boring Cadian minis in the first place?


because they are imperial guards men who got added to the inquisitors retinue not van saar gangers and was hoping for advice on how to get weapons that reflect it

if you can try to stay on topic next time.

He was on topic. He asked a question. You hadn't explained your backstory yet you just laid out a broad description of what you want to do. That's not a bad thing!

Frankly though? He makes a good point. There is a lot of work to be done to do arm/gun swaps. Using the Van Saar bodies and weapons with the bare Guard heads from the Cadian Command Squad box would be a good way to avoid using the helmets if you wanted to avoid them.
I would say that if you want to use those fairly cool 'spider' helmets, you could trim off the tails and file down the detail on the face or build a kind of skintight mask over it.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/773904/10409575.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/773904/10409575.page GMT Using Van Saar arms to make Inquisition Storm Troopers? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/773904/10409578.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/773904/10409578.page GMT Using Van Saar arms to make Inquisition Storm Troopers? IG bodies. That's how a lot of my kit bashes happen.

On topic, yeah if you file down the arm joints it should work and I think the guns are beefy enough to work as hell guns.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/773904/10409597.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/773904/10409597.page GMT
