I made this Blue Scribes Of Tzeentch model by using and converting bits from GW's Burning Chariot Of Tzeentch kit.

I've added some unique personal ideas to my version of the Blue Scribes, like the maw of Tzeentch appearing on the book to speak to his servants and the mark of Tzeentch appearing on the book where the quill is poking it. Note the mutant twin feather of the quill pen. The wave of magic on which the Disc Of Tzeentch rides has eyes on it.

Building the model this way allowed me to avoid the fragile Finecast model, yielded a personally unique version of the model, and it left me with a whole lot of useful model parts from the unused portion of the Burning Chariot kit.

Looking good! It amused me to no end when they released a plastic chariot that includes all the components to make disc-riders/blue scribes for the same price as the finecast discriders. Like the mouth on the book.

I managed to make two Haralds on disks out of that kit (one for my screamers, the other for my flammers). It's full of Tzeentchy goodness and the idea of making the scribes did cross my mind. Glad to see it can be done and looks good!
