Hey guys, this is my first venture into true Kit Bashing and I wanted a really awesome looking Grey Knight Grand Master that stood out. Tell me what you think. Sorry the photos are not the greatest.

Thanks Fuzz. I have been getting a lot of trolling from friends because GK's aren't supposed to have wings or apparently hair/facial hair (not sure where it says that in the fluff). I don't give a damn the fluff changes regularly and I wanted him to just look amazing.

Cape= St. Celestine
Wings= The Sanguinar
Head= Space Wolves Grey Hunters
Torso and Bolter = Grey Knight Strike Squad
Halo= Grey Knight Strike Squad Warding Stave Conversion
Legs, Arms, Shoulders, Sword= Grey Knight Terminators
Helm on the base = Venerable Dreadnought
Daemon Skull on base= Grey Knight Terminators
Wolf Skull on base = Space wolves
Ammo box and Techmarine Shoulder pad on base = Razorback box

Then lots of green stuff to make it all fit together.

Here he is painted, apologize for the bad lighting I don't have the best set up for photography. I think he looks a little better in real life, but what do you guys think?

I thought all the GKs were equipped with enormously large beards. Especially the psifleman dreads :D

I really like the conversion, and I've always imagined GKs can have beards, not sure what I'm basing it on though. I wouldn't worry about your friends' complaints -- remember the Rule of Cool.

OH I see what you did there :-P. Also though in 6th ed Psifleman are sort of dead. You know Hull Points and all kill them fast.

I can appreciate the work you put into this. But I hate it. The pose, wings, head, and cape all look wrong to me. It feels like you like you just grabbed all the cool pieces in your box and glued em together with no real direction.

On a more positive note I like the base (minus the snow) and the paint job.
