If the creator is here, I'd love to know how this model was converted, or if there's a blog post or something somewhere talking about the bits used. I'd really like to steal it shamelessly in some fashion, though I'd keep the rider on the bike to play games with easier.

If the creator isn't around to tell me I'm a piece of trash for stealing his art, does anyone else know what bits were involved in making this? All I can get out of it is the front is from a Vyper and the fin-wings at the back might be made from the body of the Guardian turrets.

Thanks everyone

Theres Vyper, weapon platform parts, Autarch bits as well as dire avenger parts. There's also some jetbike bits in the mix.

I'd need a 360 or at least more photos from different angles to say any more.

I'm OVER 50 (and so far over everyone's BS, too).
Old enough to know better, young enough to not give a ****.

That is not dead which can eternal lie ...

... and yet, with strange aeons, even death may die.

Unfortunatrly I can't find any other pictures than this one. Was looking up shining spears conversions on Pinterest and this dude popped up and made my pants a little moist

It's also not 28mm scale, so I wager (especially for the rider) that there's a fair amount of scratch-build/sculpting involved (consider that the canopy of the Jetbike is from a Vyper).

If you want to mimic this conversion for play in 40k, you'll have to find some way to scale it down.

Just from looking, the Canopy from a Vyper, the "core" looks like it has an OOP DE Reaver core, he back has a new DE Reaver canopy, the wing is made of a Guardian heavy weapon platform wing, there is an upside-down Bright lance/Pulse laser under the canopy, WraithLord "fins" on the back as well.
The Autarch looks like a combo of DE legs, Dire Avenger torso and tabard, with a Fire Dragon head. The weapon is probably High Elf in origin, with a WL flamer tip

And it is 28mm

The weapon is part sensor boom from a falcon and part other bits, including flamer tip.
