Hey ho Dakonites!

I am currently in the proccess of convering 10 ork nobz into cyborks and a painboy. I am trying to make each one unique, but I feel like all my ideas have become rather formulated, so I want to take this chance to request folks to post some pics or just ideas for your cyborks and painboy conversions for a bit of inspiration or just to show off.

I have only converted 2 cyborks so far, I have a pain boy but will also be converting one of my nobz into a painboy, so Im looking for some inivative ideas on creating mechanical parts, bionic eyes and syringes for the painboy.

Even if you just post an idea I would love to see some pics of orks converted with some meky parts!

Could we have some new pics? I have the feeling that these look great, but I can't be sure. You've focused on the chairlegs behind them

I want one

Anyways, the orks seem to be in pretty good condition. I personally like the Cybork in the first picture.
Can't wait to see them painted (get a better camera somewhere, or take pics from further away. We can always zoom in for the details)


PS: I want that chair... you might find it missing tonight

Thanks for the link! I try to avoid swaping arms with other models without trying to convert them a bit, I think thats fine for the boyz but larger models like nobz I feel need a bit more work, Monkeytrolls has some great ideas and great models, thats what Im talkin about!

P.S. Im watching you chambers, and my chair, if i develop some kind of squint Im suing!

Here's a overall shot of my custom painboy, made from a nob and my bitz box (and yes, that is a defibrillator he is carrying on his back)


I have since started painting it, but no shots of that I'm afraid, have a look in my gallery for other pics it

I have one cyborked Nob, and I am working on a cyber grot. I would just suggest trying different bitz on different models and see what takes your fancy. I never start with a plan, and just let the ideas flow. Sometime I have to start over...


He's not severely Cyborked, just his Klaw arm.



The Grot is a lot more cyborked.


Then I just add wires and bits, so it looks like it's all powered off the "generata" on his back.

Also, I am working on a Mega Dred Boss.
