Chaos Khorne Lord of Skulls kit bash . . . behold the Deathknight! By White Metal Games

Greetings fellow wargamers!

Since the release of the Khorne Lord of Skulls about a week ago, the internet has been a buzz with conversion gossip. The kit is just ripe for kit bashing, and like most enthusiasts out there I couldn’t wait to get it on my workbench.

In expectation of the release, MBG over at Spikey Bits released this article. The Dreamforge leviathan has a nice look, but sadly it won’t be released in 15mm scale for a few more months. And I wasn’t willing to wait.

The Khorne kit bash, that we dubbed the ‘Deathknight’ stands just a smidge taller than the Wraithknight, and would defiantly put the eldar in it’s place in a one on one. The legs are from an Iron Monger toy from Iron Man movie a few years ago. They had the right shape, feel, and bulk to really sell this conversion.
While I do think I could add a few more Khorne icons onto the legs, I just haven’t found anything in my bits box that is screaming to me right now as being right for this model. Not to worry, I can always glue them on later.

We also came across a pretty decent sized base for the model in our base box. This particular base is hard plastic, black, and beveled/convex. Perfect! It will be include with the model when sold (see below).

Like most of our work, this model will be up for sale on ebay on Thursday, July 25th. Check out all our listings including this one here.
