hey hey!
can anyone help?
As im sure most of you know... the Death Corps of Krieg models from Forge World all look the nuts but cost the earth! Does any one know if i could use figures from the steel legion mixed with the more expensive death corps models to form my IG army?
or am i being thick? sorry.... new to this!
Cheers for any help guys!

I did concider this but I decided against it. The DK don't actually look anything like Steel legion troopers if you look closely. They both wear gas masks, the similarites end there.
If you are going to collect Death Korps go the whole hog and do it right. I have, and I think they look great!
Good luck in making the right decision.

When it reaches $100 US per model, you know GW has to bring these minis back.

Don't mix them. Forge World models and the older GW models are proportioned and scaled differently. If you're not looking to drop a big fat wad of cash on FW Kriegers, then grab up a bunch of Steel Legionaries and whip out the green stuff. Check around on google for some conversion guides (I'm sure there are some out there).
A few things i reccomend as far as converting goes are as such: Extend the back of the helmet and put a ridge on the top. Redo the face masks so they have two circular eyes instead of goggles. And extend the trench coat.
Best of luck.
