Demon Prince of Tzeentch - simple web search results (1)

Hello, a very simple post , trying to come back to blogging activity :-)
Demon Prince of Tzeentch (DePoT)  .... and quick web search to collect many different attempts to this topic.

 I believe the models may be used as Magnus the Red, if you are not convinced by new plastic model. Thus, the post is picture heavy but I like to summarize the obvious ideas, before looking for something really new...

Many conversions are build around current or old versions of generic DP model. Usually adding a birdy-like head and legs/hands is an easiest way to get good results.

Typical starting point...


...but variations are endless...


 
 

  

  

Good painting never hurts...



  


A birdy head is not necessarily a must ...


 Second broad type of DePoT is based on Egyptian walking sphinx taken from Warhammer Khemri range. This body ...


  ... and legs consist the base of simple kitbashing:



 This nice miniature sporting a birdy head and sphinx body/legs is a joint between both types...


Another attempt is trying to reduce nr of legs of out DePoT and make him bipedal..



There are nice conversion parts (sometimes) available for this task..



 Examples below ar not necessarily intended as DePoT models (they are actual Khemri/Tomb Kings) but they show the potential of this particular way...



 
 Of course, one can live without the commercial resins...


Another mixture of plastic DP, khemri and HE fenix wings:



But always you have to keep your eyes on the correct proportions ;-)

 Enough for today, next I will look to models build around different Greater Daemons of Tzeentch, as they are similar in size to new Magnus plastic...

They will fight again... now for Nurgle.

These are conversions made by some skilled Ukrainian modeler, and cast in resin for eBay
(
as DEAD ZOMBIE MUTANTS BLITZ KRIEG KORPS).

Death Guard Obliterators spotted

Obliterators of Nurgle are ever popular choice for Heavy Support slot in Chaos Space Marines army. As it is with all minions of Nurgle, creation of quite unique models is not so difficult task. However, sometimes people offer home-build miniatures re-cast in resin as a quick solution to buy. Below are such miniatures, offered on eB for ~50 USD / squad, i.e. the same price as GW failcast product.






For comparison, I will show another option accessible via some Russian website.

Communication Dish needed, or, help me finding alternative model

To whom it may concern: I'm looking for this particular miniature from Quantum Gothic range, or (better, as I need two copies) some kind of quality replacement/alternative  (it's 28/32 mm scale). Their shop is offline now, without clearly defined deadline for re-opening. Does anybody have suggestions? Please, post them in the comments...






While googling, I found the miniature shown below, but again it is missing from stock in the online shop of the makers. I believe, it was made for Battletech, and I'm not sure what the scale is (I never had interest in this system).




 
Another  alternative, which I found is too large and too expensive for my purpose (which is DA Darkshroud conversion, BTW)...


So, as said previously, I need your help...please.
