fat haemonculus and female archon

So I'm considing making an extremely obese haemonculus, but I'm at a loss at what to use as a base.   I initially thought I'd buy a nurgle model and start there but none of them seemed to catch my fancy. .. any suggestions?

Maybe make a custom base? Like have there be a bunch of food wrappers on the ground or have him sitting on a couch. I think that would be pretty funny and creative.

Lol I didn't think of that, I was probably going to have converted grots (not sure what into) or haermivores (the things under urien) carry him while he sits on his lardy butt

Fat Haemi with needle thin long spider legs coming out of his waist to float him.

Inspired by Spellcheck's amazing Kheradruakh conversion, I'm building my own fat Urien wit hthe Nurgle Champion as a base. Works like a charm! I will post pictures as soon as he's done.

Maybe the fat Skorne warlock could be helpful?

Good model!

My mind immediately jumped to Baron Harkonnen.



Unfortunately that kit is 1/6 scale, so too big for 40k, and the only other model of the guy out there isn't the greatest quality.


You've got the Fatties from Judge Dredd:



Or if you can get one, the Fatty from the board game Zombicide:

What about using Reaperminis' Totenkrantz?

Ogre model from Fantasy as a base for conversion?

Fantasy Slann, for that real Jabba the Hut feel?

You could always try and master green stuff. A huge haemy with a bursting corset to keep the waist slim could be awesome!

Sorry I havent replied but my phone lost mInutes and have no other acess to internet. Dominar Rasheth has the lounging on a grav couch positiion and fatness, slann also has the sitting position but I'm not sure of his size compared to other dark eldar (from the pictures he looks kinda small), and the nurgle chaos lord is fat and cheap but he isn't sitting. One of these three are probably going to be the route I go. However I'm going to try and model him puncturing his stomach with a blade and acid spurting from the hole, and on that note (other than greenstuff) what do you guys use to make drastic changes to models. I saw some modeling clay at the local walmart, just not sure if it would work on small models.

I use procreate for most of my conversions, often over a wire armature. It works really well with organic conversions rather than the hard lines of vehicles I find. Also, some old dentist tools and petroleum jelly are really helpful for manipulating the material. Dip your tools in the jelly every so often to reduce tugging and tearing. Also, make sure you have a clean flat work surface, I recentaly cut open a plastic bag and just put it on a wooden table, but in the past I have done a lot of work on an old lab bench.
Also, since I am planning to make a nurgle haemonculus type fella (chaos eldar wooo), I will let you know my process once I am done.

So I've decided in using the fantasy nurgle lord for the haemy, but now I've got a question about the succubus model. I want to make a female archon with her as a basis with a blaster in one hand and the animus vitae in the other (that's the living barbed wire right?). However I want her positioned with one leg bent with her foot sitting on a marine and the other straight to the ground behind the marine, do you think this could be accomplished with just her model and a blaster or should I get the new archon to use one of his legs?
Sadly I probably won't be able to start either until after the holidays, money will be right until then.
And I'd appreciate you telling me how it goes teetengee.

Will do, might be a while though, the cold weather has made some parts of the hobby more troublesome these days.
