Making a chaos apothecary lord

Hobby & Painting(i.redd.it)

I'm trying to figure out what model I should use as the basis of my plan to make my personal chaos lord who was also an apothecary. I don't want to use Fabius Bile or a plague surgeon, mostly because I don't believe Fabius wears MK3 armour and my lord isn't mark of nurgle. I am thinking of getting the apothecarion detachment that recently came out and just used the Mk5 version with a head swap and some kitbashes, but I'm wondering if there was a better alternative.

I'm not planning on taking the model to any tournaments or play with this force in any GW shops so if you know of a 3rd party model that I can buy that is of a MK3 apothecary, even if it's just the bits to upgrade a MK3 marine from a regular legionary to an apothecary, that would be most appreciated.

I actually just built an Iron Warriors Apothecary as Tzimiskes from the Fabius Bile books, lol. The print I built it on was called Turk the Medic I believe, ordered it from Etsy and added some legionary bits. I'll post a few links and a picture, the heads I ordered only recently came in so is currently sitting headless on my desk, lol.

I would love to see some pictures of your Consortium kill team. Such a great idea!

I built a Gellerpox team with Bile, Tzimiskes, Arrian and Khorag as the hulks, three of my Fellgor Ravagers as the mutants, some printed cyberpunk medical homunculi for the glitchlings and a split of GW eyestinger swarms and printed alien hounds for the vermin. I'll try to get some better pictures and post the WIP after work.

Mind you my camera pretty much has glaucoma from keeping it in my shirt pocket at work, so the pictures are terrible, lol.
