Just wondering if someone could please come up with some suggestions on what to use/make as the tails for the above?

Many thanks

If you can get one of the old plastic Warhammer skeleton chariots, the long "spine" that goes forward for the mounts to be hitched to makes a good chaos tail for an Imperator. I've also used the flails from the 40K defiler as Chaos titan tails.

remember that with careful application of heat (above a flame usually) most plastic can be bent into shape...just don't set it alight!

THe old OOP titan tails actually made by GW are, obviously, also a good choice for the smaller titans.

A bunch of Necron bits could also be used quite successfully if bent a bit.

I've used the same 40K Defiler flails as Zap and I've also used a zip to make a Chaos Titan tail (used super glue to hold it in a curve and then attached it to the Reaver titan).

Hi!

To get a look similar to the tail in the picture, you could also use a guitar string.

best regards,

I do believe that Onyx used zippers coated in superglue as tails. They looked pretty good.

I'd also like to suggest some of the old Zoid toys as well - many came with suitable tails that you could use and are usually very cheap on Ebay.

Good call. That's what I used to make the tail on my Dies Irae (I forgot to mention it ealier).
