WH40K: Scratchbuilt Zagstruk and Stormboyz Nob


Before I went away, I built two members of my Stormboyz hierarchy. I made a Stormboy Nob (squad leader) from an assortment of parts, and then went to town to scratch build my own Zagstruk, a special character who can lead a Stormboy mob. He's not a figure I need in my army, but by the time I got around to building him, I had a couple of plastic power-klaws available. The hard part was mounting him in a flying pose, but not having him overbalance. The base has a few pieces of scrap white metal superglued in, for that reason.






Games Workshop's model of Zagstruk is available here - but support your Friendly Local Games Shop!

  2. Thanks Arran - I can't remember if it was an original idea, but I always prefer converting in plastic to chopping up metal. Much easier to cut and glue!
