Let's pool all WoC rank fillers and filler ideas in one place. A friend of mine might need some good ones to expand his army cheaply, so I'll report the best to him. Although intended for a Chaos Dwarf army, this kind of thing works equally well for WoC, so I'll show my first photographed one to get the snowball rolling. The rank filler is the drawn skin of a flayed man, possibly a human warlord from Ind, both a talented poet, master fencer and experimental metallurgist. He died with his royal elephant as a Bale Taurus crashed into them from the skies. Now some of his earthly remains are suspended as a sick and sadistic decoration, constantly dug up and dug down again by a gang of slaves as the army travels to new battlefields. Posted Image The flat grotesque was easier to make than I had thought. It's simply a plasticard man shape, ragged and torn by knife and drill, glued onto two bits from "plackers" (small plastic dental floss tools with curved ends) which was pinned into double 20mm bases. The bases are also pinned, sculpted and glued together. As you might notice I tried to get a sort of bull's head silhouette from the plackers. The plasticard skin was given some coating of super glue for stability. The ropes are super glued thread with green stuff knots on the backside of the thing. Pictures of that when painted. With thread in place the wrinkled and somewhat baggy skin was created through some hours of green stuff work. The cuneiform stone and the skull of the poor man were added to give some depth to the piece, which looked too flat without them. Edited by Karak Norn Clansman, Mar 31 2014, 02:55 AM.

Indeed. This is not a fairy fae army, these are Chaos Dwarfs, the shortest, baddest, toughest and most cruel people in the Warhammer world. Having clearly visible signs of their war crimes in battle is logical for Dawi Zharr armies. They're not that numerous and have to grasp every advantage they can get their callused hands on in order to survive and conquer in the embattled Warhammer world. Striking at the enemies' psychology is thus a given, and this psychological impact can crudely be said to, in combat, count instead of the warriors which the rank filler "replaces". Besides the historical reference point of Dracula we also have the Assyrians, which the 4th edition CDs were based upon. They were both brutally cruel to any enemies in order to scare neighbouring towns into submission, and they used propaganda to boast about it and drive home to point. Hard. It also made them hated like hell, which proved to be their empire's undoing. They had crass depictions of humans flayed alive, of cut off hands, limbs and heads. Of impaled men and torture. Of burning cities and deportations. Chaos Dwarfs are not kind. When you face them on the battlefield, you should instantly recognize them for what they are and want to destroy them. I'd never do such a thing like this with my Dwarf armies in Lotr, Warhammer or 40k. Warriors of Chaos isn't much different from their stunty brethren in this matter. |

I agree Karak, that is quite the badass filler. I personally don't like to use them. But upon seeing this I might make something for my Ogres... Just need more bases. :ermm: |

The Nippon Chaos fillers are as great as the unit models themselves. Astonishing! |

That japanese arc is really nice! WoC needs few fillers, we have very few models already... |

Here are two unit fillers I created for my 50 strong GW wielding marauder unit (back when marauders were still good).

NoisyAssassin - Those spiders/tree filler is definitely one of my favorite fillers that I have seen. The pink and black contrast looks incredibly striking and the base work is phenomenal. I love the skull on their opisthosoma. It is an amazing piece overall, worthy of the best spot on any display shelf. |

Hahaha... thanks. I got the inspiration for him from Skeletor (from He-man). But now that you mention it, he does look quite a bit like Doctor Doom. |

As you wish, sir. ;) It seemed a tad too civilized to be of use for WoC, but one could always hang people from mutated trees instead, right? Copied from my log on CDO: Speaking of brutality, we also have this ritual Goblin-gallows, with the face of a mythical strangler-Daemon which is believed to haunt Slaves and insubordinate minions from the dark corners of the earth. This is simple work, simply plastic sprue bits clobbed together with some thread, brickabrack details and a hanged victim. The platform is made up of three layers of plastic sprue, with grey stuff brickwork. As you might spot, the Goblin isn't whole and sale. In a mutilation rite his right ear was cut off, his left lower leg axed and put in a pot (footwear thrown aside) and his scalp scalped and thrown like rubbish on the staircase. When death arrives, all body functions cease as corpse go limp. That's why there's a spot of Gobbo dung, somewhat to the left, implying even before hanging or violent swaying to the sides in the hemp rope. Posted Image Posted Image Posted Image Posted Image That is the fate of all Gobbos! |
