I am going to make some deathwatch scouts. I want to use Telion, but want him to look like Scout Sergeant Cyrus from the DoWII games.

Can anybody advise a head for swap that looks like Cyrus - I don't want to be greenstuffing/sculpting, hoping to go simple.

Will try and get a picture of cyrus up later.

Hmm, having just googled Cyrus, that is a tricky head to look for- both long hair on a Marine (rare enough by itself) and an augmetic eye. I will have a look. Hmmm.....

This is the closest I've found so far, although the hair is a bit short, and you would have to paint the beard on. Looking at the images of Cyrus though, his beard is very close cut, so painting would work for that.

Ok, so I was thinking that maybe you could cheat and use a hooded head to show him when he is infiltrating with his camo cloak in use which would hide his hair, but apparently the entirety of the Dark Angels Chapter only ever gets their right eye poked out. :mad: Annoying.

Hope it helps :) There is a hooded Anvil Industries head as part of a 5-pack with a left bionic eye if you would prefer to go that route:

You could try this Eldar head (Heresy, I know). You would need to greenstuff the eye though, but on the upside- the hair and face shape are pretty close.

mm, you might have to fatten up the cheeks a bit too.
