For the Magos Explorator and his retinue I wanted to go for a more zealous look. I also wanted an excuse to use all the cool Witch Hunters models I had in my collection! You will see that with a few minor conversions the Witch Hunter henchmen make great Machine God cultists. In fact I even used one to make the Magos himself.
I decided early on that I didn’t want my army commander looking like just another Enginseer. After a bit of searching I found the Witch Hunter Crusader from the henchmen blister pack was perfect. I first removed his hands and replaced them with an Enginseers axe, Space Marine Stormbolter and added an Enginseers servo arm back pack. The Stormbolter looked too big so I added a piston brace using some plastic rod. The mechadendrite cables were made with guitar wire and pieces from an Inquistor scale Servo Skull. |
