It's been awhile since I posted anything Warmaster related. I've been slowly converting these Dragon Princes over the past year. I wasn't a fan of the originals so I modified some Silver Helms with head swaps and dragon "ears" on the horses. No paint yet, I'm hoping to get to them this year though after I finish up my Wrath of Kings Goritsi.









The Sea Guard are still in the works, I just need to finish their command. Then I get to figure out how I'm going to do White Lions and Chrace chariots.

Ah, such a shame you started painting them, they would have been beautiful, recast.

Most impressive!  What will you use as a base (if any) for your white lions?

I'll likely use the loose Swordmasters. They'll need legs, axes, pelts and a different top knot.

Those are great. Are the head swaps from the original Dragon Princes? And did you sculpt the horse 'ears'?

Really like those.  Your HE army is the certainly best I've ever seen.  And it was a pleasure to see it 'for real' a couple of years back.  Looking forward to seeing the new units.  Eureka do 10mm lions if that's any help.

Thanks guys. The heads are from one of the mounted heroes, and the ears are from the same head. I just removed them and cleaned them up. The only putty was on those with the leveled lances, extra cutting was involved.

It just means there'll be a surfeit of headless horsemen ;-)
