    Here I did a bit of bit bashing to create temple guards using the new warriors. I burred out the heads from a temple guard unit I had laying around. Then utilizing the add on helmet skull trinkets. Used a cordless hobby ingraver with a 3mm burr. Shaved down till only the helmet was left. Next will be using the shields and burr away the arms that are casted on the inside of the T.G. shields. Gw really missed out on a way to build out warriors or temple guards. Unfortunately. Please share or suggest.

    Yes, alot bigger and don't fit the new look that GW has released with there new models. You would think the temple guards the elite unit would surpass in size and armory. I tried out this approach and was happy with it since it is all GW temple guard bits. Alot of work tho and will probably not do again lol.
