    i kit bashed a kroot piloting a ghostkeel a few weeks ago. fewer armor plates and more dead animal bits really made it look like it fit the kroot aesthetic but i dont think i can do too many of my kit bashes that way and continue to maintain the aesthetic. so i think the rest of my kit bashes for the army will likely follow more along the lines of something like this kroot ox broadside.
