'Ello dakkamates,
I love me greenskins, but lets face it, GW costs a ...
So, here's a rather cheap and easy conversion for stormboyz horde and thought I'd share.
Things you'll need :
the metric ton of AoBR slugga choppa boyz that you either have laying around or giving out for nearly free on ebay.
paperclips (1 clip = 2 boys)
thin-ish plasticard
plasticard tube (straws toooo thin, but sparybottle tubes are cheap at the $1(or whatever your local currency is) store and other parts off of it make great bits)
small hand drill, drill bit just slightly bigger than chosen paperclips
and greenstuff (or some type of resign putty)
plastic clippers/razor blade (BE CAREFUL!!)

Oh man, thank you! This is awesome!

This is a great idea.

I do wish you would have spent a bit more time on detailing on how you made the rokkit pack, though.

The backpacks very easy, figured the photos gave it away, but here's whatcha need to do:
Cut thin plasticard small rectangle out
glue it on the back of the boyz shoulders (normally the boyz have some sort of metal looking back piece middle of their shoulders, is what you're looking for)
once that's in place, glue the tubes onto that. (can use various things, old ink pen parts, spray bottle parts, etc.. you are limited to your imagination)
then cut to fit (and your style) the rest of the plasticard up and forming a box to cover up the tubes. (we're orkz, so doesn't have to be all pretty. make it look like slapped together for bonus points).
the hardest part really about making them is to not make them all look 100% the same (standard two tube boxes are so damn easy) so cut out different fins and add other little details to make each different.

Hmm, why not just put 2 straws wrapped in paper or something similar?

SHOW KEWL!
