Subject: Share you're special character conversions
Personally, I'm a big fan of converting special characters, and decided to makea thread where people can share theirs.
A few of my own for my Blood Ravens
Vulkan He'stan (Perseus Helstrom)
Pedro Kantor (Julios Matheus)
So please share your own conversions. The only limit it must be representative of a special character.
I'm celebrating 8 years on Dakka Dakka!

He's gone through a few changes since I took this photo (I took off the storm bolter, added a kombi-skorcha, and touched up the paintjob), but here's one of my Warbosses, Gobsmasha!
EDIT: He's not really a special character in that he plays as Ghazghkull, but he's special to me!

Wow i really like the starcraft inspired marine. Reminds me that i wanted to build a zerg themed tyranid army once. I even got half of kerrigan sculpted until i realized how many zergling-gants i had to scratchbuild.
So i stayed with my vanilla marines and CSM. Till today i've made a bunch of characters for them. Some are even half a year old (and still unpainted ... )
Here are my loyalist ones:
Spoiler:
The thing in the right hand of this tech marine is supposed to be a mount for different kind of weapons.
This is my Kantor. I tried to be as close to the original as possible and just replace the chapter markings with that of my chapter.
Just a random inquisitor. And i still can't say why i build one. He has no purpose other then to exist.
And my chaos characters:
Spoiler:
This is a counts as fabius bile for my female marines. I think she turned out well.
For the same female marines my abbadon.
And just a random dark apostle. He was build even before the new codex came out and allow him as an hq.
Lucius the eternal. Sadly i have no better pic of him. He is now primed black so i can't take a better one until he has seen some color.
And finaly a chaos sorcerer. Once a proud Ultramarine now fallen. His ultramarine marking mockup is sadly on his right shoulder and can't be seen in this pic ...
Awesome models, guys! I was a videogame geek waaay before I started playing warhammer so I decided to bring some of that love into the hobby!
I modeled my Guardsman Marbo into Naked Snake from Metal Gear Solid 3, he was the first major conversion that I've done and I'm thinking about repainting him to better reflect my current painting skills.
But more than I love the Metal Gear series, I love the Uncharted series from Naughty Dog. My friends joked about me making a Nathan Drake model for the longest time. At first I wasn't going to use him as anybody, but then it dawned on me "AL'RAHEM"
So I use the rule of cool to be able to field him lol.
So you told the SD boy to stay classy. I'm sure he's NEVER heard that one....
