Necrosphinx - > Pain Engine kitbash

Hi all,

While I like the Talos/Chronos models I really love the Necro/Warshpinx from fantasy and have been thinking about a way to kitbash them.



Almost like an iron maiden.

As the Spinx kit is larger than the Pain Engines it would have to be cut down and the Engine bits added to it.

Thoughts?

I think that looks amazing. Would love to see it as a model.

The Sphinx is waaaay bigger than a talos, it's closer to a Defiler/Trygon in terms of scale. I don't see the hip part of the talos looking anywhere close to proportional with the Sphinx so you'll probably have to scratchbuild that part. Looks like it could be a really cool concept though (once it's painted less Egyptian-y)

My first attempt:
(Apologies for the blurry pictures.)






I should have primed before basing.  I also noticed that the base connection is off center with the body but don't mind it too much.  Over all I am pleased with it.  I plan to do a second Sphinx engine with the chest open to reveal the captive 'pilot.'  I will post a size comparison picture an official pain engines when I have one built.

The montage made me rather sceptical, didn't like the look, but the real deal looks hot!

Here's the size comparison:
