Mounted Warrior Priests models
« on: April 17, 2012, 02:15:37 PM »
Are the only mounted Warrior Priests released the Ulric priest and Luthor Huss?
Can't seem to find other models, so far.

Yep, although with the right plastic bits you can probably make a pretty good mounted priest from the General plastic kit, all you really need is a bald head.

GW dont do mounted warrior priests (exept the ones you mentioned) but you could probebly do a easy conversion with a Warrior priest and the bottom half of a knight....
We don't need to reason why,
we just need to glue and buy.

We have our entire range made out of plastic.
It literally could not be easier to make a mounted warrior priest.
I don't care about the rules.

War Altar horse, General Body and hammer arms, a bald head of some kind (the one in the General kit would work, but it has a massive beard which might not be the look you are going for).

Why on earth would he need to be bald? Just because most of the existing models are?

Anyway, he could be wearing a helmet.

Here's one I did. I used a Brettonian Knights legs to get the surcoat. An Empire Knight's body. White Wolf arms. Great Sword head and bevor. Flagellant back banner and tome. Warrior priest shield.

Hair is found upon beastmen, who are of Chaos. And direwolves (undead). Also, hippies.

i did something pretty similar. if you are thinking about getting a pegasus captain, make sure you get the brett pegasus and our empire general kit. put our mounted general on the peggy and you can use the brett legs on the empire horse to help distinguish him as wearing heavy armour (they have a lot of chain mail and look different to our knights).

equip him with a bit of weaponry, a non-knightly helmeted head and the banner from the flaggies as pictured and you're good to go!

Doesn't it say something in the fluff about them shaving their heads?  :mrgreen:

Actually, that's where i got the Brettonian legs - from the pegaus kit.

Luthur Huss is a nice model but honestly, plastic conversions of warrior priests are pretty awesome and spot on.
Check out the paiting gallery with the warrior priest thread. Lots of before and after pictures and unlike most conversions there's usually verry little or no greenstuff work because the bitz match.

I kitbashed this priest together yesterday:

Legs and horse from general kit,
torso was left over bit from my captasus conversion
hammer from warriors of chaos
head from flaggelants
could do with a little GS around the wrist but is in no way necessary for it to look good (only better ;) )
took me about 15 mins to build

btw: it is written that Priests of Sigmar shave their head as a sign of devotion. I don't know if a shaven head is obligatoire or if it's just fashionable among priests

That looks good!

I think that's only been in the fluff since the new book! I don't remember seeing it before.

I used the Luthor model and swapped the head and hammer. I also added a sword to his back, and changed the horses head.



For my Archlector on Warhorse, I got a bit more complicated:



Here I used Luthor's horse head. I used mounted necromancer legs, knight torso, artilleryman pointing arm, whitewolf hammer arm, and free company head (with hair shaved off).
