Daemons are a very colourful army with many models that are easy to find, but they also have quite a lot of strange things and warmachines I found almost impossible to replace. However, the nature of Chaos means great creative freedom in how to portray each unit, so don't feel constrained by my (very limited and based on GW) choices or even the original models.
A few comments first:
- The models listed here are not perfect and many are not on the same
level as the original ones (those are usually way older than the current
GW range). I am not saying losing GW models won't be a pity, if anything this work
is making me appreciate them even more. I am just saying that a solution
exists. The important part is, the models are out there.
- This is not only my work. I have used ideas and suggestions from various places and am very grateful for the collective wisdom of the internet communities.
- In many cases I was unsure about the size of the models and was forced to go on guesswork only. I hope at least some of them will work.
- When possible, I have tried to link to groups of models and larger units, if only to show multiple sculpts at once. Most of the companies sell the individual models as well, should that be preferred.
- I am quite a chaotic person and may have overlooked something awesome. I usually try to link sites that offer greater number of useful models or the ones I know I have not exhausted, but searching around the linked models might yield even more fruit.
- If you know about something useful not linked here, please let me know and I will add it. This is by no means an exhaustive list and can never be, but I would like to list as many possibilities as possible.
