Soliciting ideas for WoC warshrine

Post by kturock »

Since GW isn't really giving an idea about an official warshrine, other than it's on a chariot base of 50x100.

I have spare bases and loads of bits, I'm thinking of scratch-building one on my own; but can't settle on a design.

It'll be some form of alter, but for all of the powers. It'll have signils and icons from the 4 and then just the chaos icon. I figure all 4 powers would want equal space.

But I haven't decided on a flat alter, a 4 sided pyramid style plinth or... ???

Ideas?
Suggestions?

I don't sculpt well, so it'll have to be more bits and parts. I have loads of heads and body parts. Bits from vehicle sprues and bones from TK. I think I even have part of a chariot.

I'm thinking or it being propelled like a palaquin, with bearers. Either 4, 1 of each type of deamon associtated with the 4 powers or 5 with a spawn-type also.
Heh, I was called a Grognard. ;-)

Depending on how much work you want to put into it....

You could make 5 bases - 1 for each God & one generic. The base would have the bearers attached to the base. Your altar wouldn't be attached. You could add it to each one as needed. Proper use of magnets could keep it in place nicely.

As for how it looks... you could always do an altar of flesh. Build the basic shape from body parts, then paint it up properly gruesome.

I was thinking about making 5 different bases. It really comes down to the size.
