I was just wondering if anyone had ever kitbashed a Warlord?
I am thinking about using one for a tournament we are running locally and I have a couple of things that could stand in, but none of them really excite me . . . and I have been using the tournament as motivation to paint up one of my faction specific forces, the 17th Avalon Hussars. So far I have painted up my Hammerhands, a AS pack Centurion, two IS Std BA and a Hauberk that is standing in for some Grenadiers. Supporting the 17th Hussars painted units are a woodland DI Morgan sub, a Marauder in either gunmetal or Lyran colors, and a few other painted items. Which will probably be a first for me on TT, no mechs, BA or vehicles that are just primer'd. My painting skills are still beginner level, and I am fine with being a 'army' painter but its nice to have a force fielded that is very representative.
Reason I ask is that I am not a fan of the Cyclops mech, but I ended up with a lot more of them than I would ever use. So I have used one as my painting experiment, to try different things and techniques I read about. I have one done up in woodland so it can be plugged into any force as needed. But that still leaves me with a few more . . . and one of them is what I am thinking about converting to a Warlord. I have a LOT of MWDA stuff to slice up for cosmetic adjustments.
