Imperial Knights

I have always been a fan of mechs, battle suits and knights but while I think that GWs plastic Paladin models were good back in the day they now appear to be a bit static and lacking in something. So last night I took a knife to one and produced the following...

This involved the following items, Knight Paladin, Imperial Guard flamer, Tau Fire Warrior head, Skaven plague monk scroll, High Elf spear. The legs were cut from the waist and at the knee, with some trimming to make it look like it was striding. The toes were trimmed on one foot to lift the back off the ground. I hacked off the head and the Fire Warrior head was trimmed at the back and around the edge to fit the gap, while the battle cannon was cut lose and just had the flamer placed there. The chain sword was cut front and back and the spear placed there instead. Lastly the spear arm was cut and twisted a bit to put inline with the eye piece on the head. This is not as straight as I would have hoped, in part due to using superglue and not polycement. 

I now need to get a few more heads and start to knock up enough for a few units. I think I have around 7 or 8 bodies around so may do a little bit of ebaying too... I have an itch now.

You can also see some buildings in these pictures knocked up from some Hirst Arts blocks. Simple but effective and just about scaling right for 6mm. More on these another day... and I promise it will not be a few weeks away!
