http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/339541.page

Right now im strugling to find time and paint a full squad of them.
They are my best conversion so far

My Chaos Doomsday Device (dont think i've posted this on here before. if i have then please forgive me)



WIP pic:







All Done and ready for WAR!!!!

Wow that's awesome

My Necron Wasp is a definite favourite.

Very nice, simple, yet effective, I love it!

Completely loving your doomsday device!

praxxis: what kit were those bits from? Looks great!

Sometimes the simple conversions are the best. Here's a Necron Heavy Destroyer made using the leftover gun from a Necron Destroyer Lord.

I've been following this thread for a good while and thought I'd contribute with my single most converted miniature, one that I finished only last night.





More pictures of him in my gallery for those who are interested.

The bionic arm and sword are nearly entirely scratchbuilt, legs and one foot have been repositioned and the smoke plume is made from green stuff.
Base is also magnetized so I can swap for a lower one for gaming if necessary.

The pictures aren't great, am hoping for a break in the weather soon to take better ones in natural light.

WOW! what did you use to make it?

Quantum gothic force pylons by the look of it

The sword is awesome

THAT SWORD IS HUGE!

liking that a lot

Sorry, but I think while well-executed, that sword just looks silly. But I do not like World of Warcraft, either.

You sure that ain't a Final Fantasy sword?

Breotan wrote:You sure that ain't a Final Fantasy sword?

The sword itself is actually from Guild Wars, it was big there but not this big, the size inspiration came from Final Fantasy. I didn't want it to be the size of a normal power sword, nor just a tiny bit bigger, I wanted it to be big and once you're making a big sword, why not go a bit overboard?

That's a very interesting machine... Is it like a counts as chimera? Can't wait for paint and such.

It's an Ork Trukk, right?

I am also interested in hearing what that counts as, cause it looks like it should be IG.

As unclebadtouch stated. The pylons are from Quantum Gothic (cost abotu £18 and it's a 60 piece kit, but pretty simpel to build and paint). The Psyker is the FW model. Thh base is 3 CDs stuck together, the top from a tub of hair product and some bits of 0.5mm plasticard. Dead easy to build.

And four members of the squad need to be helmetless and converted to match. Because clearly the B.A. in B.A. Barracus stands for Blood Angels (bonus points if the customizer can find some way to paint "PITY" and "FOOL" on his knuckles).

First post evar!

Anyways, this is far from as good as (m)any of the other posts but here goes.

I used some green stuff do add noses and hair on my regular trolls to make them look more like nordic folklore trolls, and therefore make them viable to be used as Stone Trolls instead (their models are fugly...) I think the "niceness" lies in the simplicity of the conversion.

those are some boss trolls!

Very nice trolls!

Nothing special but a quick conversion for a Land Raider Heavy Bolter turret. Actually built to be a Marauder Cannon as seen in JustDaves chaos codex.

My most recent conversion/kitbash:

Also found on my blog http://edwargaming.blogspot.com/

These are three assault marines for my forthcoming Sons of Sanguinus army.

I want to contribute to this thread with my latest, and imo, my best conversion

Here is my WIP Orc Big Mek with KFF


From the front.


From the back.

My Sgt. Harker

That's a brilliant Harker conversion. How did you make the full face plate?

Green stuff. Just mashed it on his face then pushed it in on the three sides to get the angles and the same with the top. It took a little practice

oh and thanks. Spent a lot of time trying to get a good finish on him

1. Dark Eldar Razorwing converted to Eldar Nightwing;
2. Caradryan and High Elf Mage converted to Eldar Warlocks;
3. High Elf Mage converted to Eldar Warlock on a "jetsteed";
4. IG veterans with Eldar trophies.

HAHAHA!! That black dude to the left on the last pic with IG looks totaly crazy! xD

Thanks guys!

Hay Obsidian Raven, The head is from the chaplain in terminator armour, I have this saved with the parts used

Ryebye, just had to chuck my appreciation in for that model - proper decent work mate, very original and like it a lot.

I think he used the body

Yup the body is from the mephiston model which includes the base of the cloak that's under all that lovely green stuff.

I was just playing around with a few of my models. And I came up with this! I tell you guys! If this beast existed, It would probably be the meanest T-34 of WWII!




Also, Don't look at the turret of the baneblade too much.. I know that It's in dire need of wash, highlights and some weathering.. just haven't done that yet

Epic stuff guys I'd post some of mine but it's a pain to get the pics to my comp.

RoguePsyker wrote:my first test of a Plaguebearer, now only 19 more to go! made from the plastic WFB Ghouls and of course Green Stuff

Fantastic Plaguebearer! Did you use a plaguebearer's head, or just GSed the ghoul's head to have 1 eye? Looks great!

The black guy in the middle looks like hes about to yell
"ITS OVER 9000!!!!!!!!!"

@NakedBatBoy Na it is from the WFB Ghouls, I used a dremel to bore out the eyes and make an indent for the single eye (which is just a ball of Green Stuff). Then just sculpted the forehead and horn ( horn was taken from the WFB Dryads)

Here is some pics of the other Plaguebearer's in the beginning stages;

All in all I think this has to be my best conversion:

To be serious, I took this head from the Baneblade kit.

DiDDe, the real T-34 wasn't as big as a Baneblade, it was Leman Russ-sized.
But the Baneblade turret does fit to T-34 chassis.
Baneblade is like the German super-heavy tank Maus (the mouse). Sadly, there were only 5 of them and none participated in WWII.

Thanks for the response/detailed pictures. I think I really like your models better than the actual plaguebearers...

I just thought that if you just look at the scale of the turret and the chassi. they kinda look pretty same-sized, Since the T-34 I used is a scale 1/34. And I know that the baneblande is nowhere near the size of a T-34 if the baneblade existed irl. ;D
In that case it's more like a maus like you said but the armaments of it has to be more like a Ratte then or something?

Well, while he may not quite be my best, I feel I put amazing (and fun) effort into this little boy. Death cult assassin? Maybe. Or, due to incessant yammering, a male Howling Banshee with Mirror Blades. Especially since my Iron Man Eldar army has branched out to become a Marvel Eldar army in general....

O.M.G, THATS AWSOME! Deadpool FTW!

Yeah, I really like your Deadpool! I'm quite interested in seeing this whole army of yours actually... Is it up online somewhere?

Me too. I love themed armies. I saw a Tau army a while that was built as the Trade Feceration from Star Wars, it looked amazing.

Sadly, I don't have the whole army up-he's one a kind right now (but quite easy if you want to make your own). I do have a bunch of Eldar Iron Man models up, but a lot of them were half-assed and I have to go back and take off the Eldary bitz (like cloth) and make it straight up metal. Should be better then, but I don't want them up til they're done. Deadpool, however, is finished. If anyone wants the list of parts to make him, just send me a PM. If enough people really want it, I'll just add it to my first post.

Edit: And yes, Mr. Wade Wilson himself is 100% GW material (except portions of green stuff from GF9, but don't tell GW that )

I know I already posted a picture in this thread but I like this one too....

I kinda wish he'd taken a little more care matching edges up to hide the underlying cardboard. A bit of appropriate color would be nice too.

The execution is a bit weak. But the concept is absolutely brilliant, and I'm just nitpicking.

Really???? I thought this was some form of humour .

Not everyone has a few hundred bucks to drop on plastic, plus another hundred or so for the rules. Many don't have the talent for a well painted army. On the other hand, cardboard is cheap, and most people nowadays have access to a computer and color printer...

I'm not an elitist. I'd rather play a fun game against a well-executed 'cardboard' army than against a snob who looks down at me because I'm not using all the latest minis...

I made it because I was bored. I take no offence to what anybody said. I only had a pocket knife, cardboard and gorilla glue plus the print out. If I had scissors I would have matched it up more.

I wouldn't exactly call myself an elitest or a snob, I'm willing to play against unpainted armies in friendly games however I would expect if someone wants to make thier own models because they can't afford GW plastics for everything that a certain amount of effort had gone into creating the stand in models because for me playing the game is sort of an added extra or icing on the cake as I enjoy the collecting building and painting of an army just as much as I enjoy playing with it.

Plus this is the "best converted model" thread so I would expect people to put their best or favorite coversion into it?

I mean no disrespect or offence I am just clarifying why I thought that the post might have been tailored for humour. As portugus has stated he made it because he was bored and given the time again and some better tools could have done a better job already.

I think I prefer it with the cardboard look.

I like to play with this one whenever I can. The hardest thing was to remove and hollow out the left shouldpad - it's from the Chaplain kit, but it was on the right stormbolter side. The banner's from the LOTD set, chaplain body, librarian left arm and staff, storm bolter attached to a storm shield arm covered with the shoulder from the chaplain model. All painted and ready for the field. I use him for both my chaplain or a librarian.

Vulcan wrote:Not everyone has a few hundred bucks to drop on plastic, plus another hundred or so for the rules. Many don't have the talent for a well painted army. On the other hand, cardboard is cheap, and most people nowadays have access to a computer and color printer...

This is most random. Lemme see if The Baron can gather all these points.

The models are expensive.
The rules are expensive.
Some people can't paint well.

The latter seems redundant, just because people can't paint well doesn't mean they can't afford the models, or vice versa.

Vulcan wrote:I'm not an elitist. I'd rather play a fun game against a well-executed 'cardboard' army than against a snob who looks down at me because I'm not using all the latest minis...

So basically, you're not an elitist but you prefer to be on the side which has the most money, since you don't seem to note the possibility of being able to play a fun game with your own 'cardboard' army because then you'd be playing against a snob who looks down on you. This says more about your potential insecurities than the opinions of other people.

That is a great chap-brarian, I love the detail you went into in describing what you did to it. I'd find that intimidating on a table.

I got a Necron Tomb Spider made out of an Easter egg, sprue bits for claws and legs, Acura RSX Engine for body, fuel canisters on back, and some hubcaps on his rear. This is my ONLY "conversion" model

Looks like his paint's coming off again.

Home made minis are the way forward- now we just need one made of clay or something..

Anyone?

some of my better conversions/buildies, and yes, made mostly of clay

Kroot-suits........ I like it lol cz

kmopotato nice looking scratch build there, if your paint keeps falling off I would suggest either a better primer or giving the model a rub with the finest wet and dry sandpaper you can find in your local auto tools and meterials shop (halfords in the uk usualy) this will give the primer something to bond to and hold.

now those are exquisit kroot suits very nicely done PossumCraft. And you sculpted some of those comonants out of clay... Very Impressive.

Ohhh gawd I sound really sarcastic don't I... I'm being honest and the sarcastic tone was unintentional and unwanted.

It's surprising how much work went into these, I thought it would be a quick job to remove the goblin face but actually it took a lot of doing and I had to cut away the arms and shields and shape the bodies a bit so there wasn't an awful lot left of the goblin in the end. I wanted to do loads, I wanted them manning some big ad mech vehicle, but five was enough in the end.

I've already posted but here are some better pics of him painted....

Edit : wooo, just realized they are based off Terran stuff from SC2, nice, lol

Starcraft Terrans indeed

My WIPs are here (Vultures starting on Page 4) if you're interested, but the base models are jetbikes with Marine Scout Bikers as riders. The engines are made up from Tau stealthsuit torsos and a chopped up jump-pack.

LOL, your dread looks like he's on crack, Rayrod! Looks good though, the eyes are just a bit shocking..

I like the bulk it added to it. Looks very intimidating. Wish I could field across from it.

Oh for sure, I didn't mean that at all as an insult. Those eyes just popped out at me. I like the extra height you added. Looks quite imposing. I would love to see it next to a normal dread/smaller SM for size comparison. The coat-of-arms and flag are probably my favorite part of the paint job, as it ties it in well with your army, yet isn't at all too much to take away from the blackness of the chaplain.

no worries....

I wanted a wild look to it. guess it worked

Thanks for the comments. I will try to post a pict next to a regular dred this weekend.

Well, done sleazing up the place for now anyway. In the interest of getting this a bit more on-topic, here are some crappy pictures of one of my few completed conversions.

Hello all! I started Warhammer 40k up (for the second time) back in May. These guys are for my completely custom chapter called the Legion of Death. I've also written a codex for them, which I have to almost completely re-write.

Anywho, These guys:

The first guy's weapon is one of the nemesis warding staves from either the GK or GKT boxes plus two falchion blades. The guy in back has a DE whip and a custom teleporty backpack.This guy has the head of a Necron Warrior and a SM combat shield made from two DE blades and a bunch of Necron bits.
Now this guy is my favorite of the bunch, because he was the first I actually put a lot of work into. Completely custom hammers, made from four bolters, purity seals, servo-skull halos, and some Dark Eldar doohickeys. I sanded away all of the chaos insignia on the shoulders, but the left leg leaves a little something to be desired.

This guy is my second favorite, because he looks so good. The base, however, does not.

Lastly, this guy. Just.... this guy. Not entirely painted.


I also have a Gundam model I am attempting to turn into a walker. It turns out that Gundam models don't jive well with WH40k stuff. Next purchase: Hot knife.

A terminator, with a lascannon, and a jump pack. Like a boss indeed.

Also- welcome to dakka!

That's what she said ^^


Plus all the models I've seen so far are absolutely amazing!!!!

Makes me want to start converting my guard again

The pilot guy is kinda funky, but I'm loving those claws.

The pilot is from the penitant engine I believe, Is this a chaos creation or some sort of adeptus experiment? perhapse it's a penitant knight? I like what you did there and in my opinion it looks much better than the baby carrier look.

Just finished this one today.

I love the look of your models McNinja! The poses are very powerful and cool. I would like to get my hands on some necron heads and make some Marines like that. Keep it up and welcome to dakka!

Nice shield/hammer smeg. I'm liking it a lot! I need to get around to putting my kanz together...

Here is a model I just put the finishing touches on this morning.

nice but a bit boobtastic for a commissar in my opinion. Unless she's leading an all femal guard army there's way to much temtation for the footslogging guardsMEN right there even if they are traitor guard.

There will be no MEN, in this army (if I ever do more than this model), I'm thinking all female. I'm still looking for coversion bits that make me say "WOW", but I'm not in a hurry. Hope you like the model apart from the excessive boobs!

Oh the model is of outstanding quality without doubt, It's so odvious I didn't even mention it infact....

Jake - definitely love the Commissar!
how much GS did you put into that thing?

Kick-ass Commissar

I know a lot of people who want to have an all female guard army....but I have to ask why? I think it would be kinda cool and diffent but why not just start the SoB?

I suppose there are many reasons not to do sisters of battle including not being inclined to run that army list? however an all female impy guard army could happen for various reasons not least of which is all the men buggering off to war or a strange sub culture building up on a forgotten world whereby the females are the more aggresive? many many reasons..... so much potential army fluff.....

I like to scratch build my ork battlewagons. Lavishing hours on building my own vehicles. Then one day someome asked me why. " Why, Dakka Dan, oh why don't you just buy battlewagon kits. It'd be so much easier" they asked. I thought quietly for a moment then I beat them to death with their own crown royal dice bag.

I didn't mean to thread-jack this thread, but I'll answer questions.

Zeke 169 wrote:how much GS did you put into that thing?

Almost all of it!
This is how it started out!

I don't know if it still counts as a conversion though...but I did convert it from a paperclip to a commissar...so I guess that should do it!
If you are interested in the build, there is a link to the thread in my signature. And thanks!

I don't like the SoB. And they are all metal, so little or no conversions. 90% of my models are at least moderately converted. (I know it would be easier, but I'm not in this to take the easy road! )

I usually just tell people because I will have vehicles/models that no one else has or will ever have. But I like your response too!

Thank you all for the nice comments!
And now someone else post a conversion!

As a dedicated SoB player - I agree...soooo much metal, still hoping we get plastic or resin models soon (especially now with the new WD Codex). Although - I do have a handful of conversions - look at my Seraphim Biker:

Now after seeing what you have going on here though Jake - I might have to start an IG army!?

I think I've had the most fun so far slapping together a Looted wagon for my "Adeptuz Mekanikuz" Orks





Originally one of my old 3rd ed Razorbacks, decided to tear it up and loot that sucker!
Skorcha make from a Deifiler and a heavy flamer from the SM tank sprue. Two big shootas (That gunner is just too stubborn to drop is own gun despite the bigger one in front of him)

Love the Orks peeking out the sides! Well done! Great paint job!
