Since size category is not allowed (I was going to nominate a cherubim) I think Eldar Phoenix lords would be quite hard to do.

Any takers for any one of these suggestions? it WOULD be nice to see an epic Kharandras, or a Squig Warmaster Skaven for Hrud?

Warmaster squigs anyone?

Do WM have squig models? I dont know much about WM.
How about using Ork/Nob/Grotz heads cut off for Squigs?
Phoenix Lords? Erm, I suppose you could start with the Exarch model at least, and use parts of the aspect models.

cheers. | Considering Mr. Skull has made Logan Grimnar in epic scale the phoenix lords would probably not be that challenging to him...
Maybe next year...

Yes, there are 3 different WM Squigs on their various Ork or Orc or models. I cut and filed them off and plan on using them with the F/W Feral Ork Village, hopefully to be completed sometime next year !?

Maybe next year... | Well, I'm not too sure about the pheonix lords, but this thread has given me an idea for one more mad plan. It'll take a lot of work & be totally useless in the end, but in the new year I'll be putting together.................
Oh dear - appears the inquisition is tampering my posting again - Guess You'll have to wait and see ......

The phoenix lord for Epic are one of my conversion project... I also want to do some kind of "Space marine Gallery" with various special character and characterfull unit, like chapter Master Dante with honor guard, Captain Tycho with death company, Azrael with robed Dark Angels, etc.
But as i am currently building (and i'm a slow painter/converter) my SM army at the time being (and there are allready lots of conversions), i'll probably start those later.
I didn't really made any plan to build Aspect phoenix lord, but i'll think i'll use parts from Exarch and Aspect Warrior, plus Green Stuff...
But sometime, when looking to achieve a particular position for a mini -which is often the most striking link betwenn a 40K and an Epic copy mini, as Mr Skull did with his Logan Grimnar and Terminator Captain, and as i did for my own terminator captain- you find yourself scavenging in a bit box, and you may very well end with a piece from a totally unrelated mini.
