Can't say I'm a fan of the 2 "lumps" () on it's chest, they could've been blended into the torso a little better, other than that you've done a cracking job there!

not really a conversion, but i think it still fits in here:

I must admit, I don't like the necron queen so much.

Here is why. Its a fantastic, characterful, well-made conversion. But I don't personally believe it fits the idea of necrons as I see them. I never liked the old necrons, and i like the new fluff. While I think there were Female necrontyr, I don't think that the necrons would have breasts.

Also, its gundamy for me, and I hate gundam anime

Thats my thoughts. Awesome conversion, but not my thing.

This is a thread of awesome inspiration! I spent all day going through it at work today.

This is still a :WIP: but I think it's my best so far.

I built it to compliment my GF's :SoB: army.







I think it needs some more work. I was thinking of adding a tower on the back with a tank killer weapon.

Base is in the works and I'll be posting the based, and finished product in the showcase soon.

Long as a Trukk. And worth every centimeter. I was really hating on all the stubby little biker bosses I've seen. Just looked far too tiny to house the tank that is a biker boss.
So now I have to worry about moving through difficult terrain a bit more, and the occasional impassible will bottle neck me, but for table presence like this, It's a fair trade.

This Tervigon is my best conversion yet. Items used are as follows: Arachnarok shell, Carnifex head body and legs, Scything Talons, a brontosaurus torso from a Dino Riders toy when I was younger, a TON of green stuff and milliput, blood (cut myself a couple times with an xacto knife), sweat, and a bit of tears--from my friends when they saw the primed model. He painted it, but I think I am gonna help him out a little bit on some of the carapace... clean it up a bit.

I also had to hack away at this Kharn model to make him look a little cooler than the standard metal one. THIS REALLY made me sweat and bleed. Not converted too much, but more like chopped up and moved around a lot!



...and this one is my favorite Obliterator. I had a Storm Golem sitting in my closet gathering dust, so i chopped him the hell up, used a dremel to make room for the head and added a bit of fleshy flair to his behemoth body. Green stuff, and lots of patience for this bad boy.

Really, until you showed the side pic of the shield, I couldn't see anything that I didn't think was GW made. Still not certain how the sword or Libby are converted- is the Libby's cloak GS?

A lot of that may have to do with your brilliant paintjob, too, Clausel.

but your capes could use a little bit of extra work

yeah I know. The ultramarine is the first one I made a cape for in GS and the Grey knight is the secound try. Its really hard to do right.
is the Libby's cloak GS?

Yes it is. And about the color. I have heard a lot people whod not quite didnt like it. I think its fine and different.

Str 5, 7 attacks on the charge and a plasma pistol just for giggles XD

I green stuffed the cape, and had to completely seperate the legs from the hips, shave the contact surface on the legs, and reglue them so they would splay out properly. It was loads of fun
to make and to paint

I made this from a Pegasus mount. I quite frankly questioned my sanity when i was done. It is based of an MLP model.
Everything on that model aren bits(excluding the rider)
They are all modeled on with milliput. Even the horn is GS wrapped around a paper clip and the tail is entirely custom made. I also learned how to make cool gems.
Also note how i removed the entire bridle and made it look like it never existed.

Very subtle. Looks like the double-head eagle from the metal/Finecast Space Marine Terminator Librarian model on the Nemesis Warding Stave or, more likely, a Nemesis Halberd, GS cloaks and maybe the book, an Iron Halo on the Storm Shield guy (and that itself is a conversion, so I'm guessing he's a Draigo? A very cool one! And the guy on the right has the Nemesis Warding Stave head on his back?

No no no, I must protest here. I don't want to spend countless hours/effort and resources to make something unique and special, just for someone to simply assume I built it from the instructions on the box.

Ah, that depends on the person. If someone wishes to go into grand detail about what they did, so be it. All I would ever say is that it was a conversion. If they wanted to know more I would provide.
Obsidian Raven wrote:I prefer subtle stuff when it comes to conversions, to be honest.

Once again that depends on the conversion. Some people like the subtle stuff, some like more grand efforts. I don't think either should go unnoticed.

Converstions are good when they come as the model in the box, but can be made to look unique... So what you're saying is that there is no point in conversions which have bits from other models?

No, I just think they're best when they're really unique. That's still certainly possible to do if you kitbash in creative ways.

What's wrong with someone making a really unique model that doesn't look like Games Workshop designed it?

I find that unless I've built one myself, I don't notice good, non-extreme, conversions. Things like better cloaks or loin cloths, weapon or arm swaps, leg position changes, etc. when done properly and painted look like they're SUPPOSED to be that way. It's not until you go over the top, or use a part that's recognisable to me from another kit, that I realize unique model is unique.

Its different to talk about a model rather than to argue about what someone said about it.

Because he attached a MLP tag to them (which frankly I don't see, pretty <>MLP people!) and that gets the forum dander up.

My sole thought on the Soul Grinder was "why's the armor Ultramarine Blue?" This likely has to do with my status as Xenos lover though.

My in-progress full battle company (reinforced) "Proper Scale" Space Marines. I'll probably start a blog once the project is further along. But here are a few of the samples. Have about three completed squads now with modified heavy weapons and swappable special weapons. Trying to make sure that every model has its own personality and individuality, but without just overloading them with purity seals or banners, etc. Space Marine armies are difficult to achieve this because of their uniformity, and I've made it doubly hard on myself by requiring all models to be wearing helmets, and only using MK7 armor parts. Like the title of my gallery, "Leave no Model Unconverted". The intention is that nearly every part of the Marines aside from helmets and backpacks will have been modified in some way (they will eventually be based too). That and my insistence that every Marine look like he has enough ammunition and grenades to prosecute a small war. There is also the challenge to make the company function "counts as" for all existing codex books.



There are more pictures in the link in my sig. Bolters are now drilled, so don't fear, lol. Not a cheap project by any means either (several bits dealers have become marginally richer at my expense), but I guess that's the advantage of being a reasonably well funded adult gamer instead of a poor high school/college gamer like I used to be.

Ever since I started playing I got tried, rather quickly might I add, seeing Blood Angels and Space Wolves mop the floor 99% of the time in my play area on everyone and seeing how the Codex Marines seemed to fall short when compared to the other two. That being said, one of the guys who played BA's earned a memorable spot in my army, this is a scout Sergeant I made standing on Blood Angel rubble with a knife through a Blood Angel helmet.

Simple reposition with green stuff and things of that nature.

Thanks Skalk. It's actually my nephew that is the follower of Nurgle, this Chaos Lord is a gift for him. I thought he could use a low cost HQ since he's only a Defiler and Possessed passed the two Troops requirement. More about the conversion itself in the spoiler.
Spoiler:
The conversion itself is pretty simple for the most part. It's really just a kitbash of the Chaos vehicle gunner front torso and head, three shoulder pads(one for the belly plate), a reposed pair of Khorne Berserker legs(standing) and backpack.
The combiflamer is another kitbash of flamer, bolter and ammo belt from a heavy bolter while the sword is a chainsword shaved down to get rid of the motor, a bayonet for the tip of the blade, hook and chain, and a blob of greenstuff for the bulk of it.
The rock is just a rock.
The paints are mostly non GW, as I'm using mostly Americana paints these days. From GW I used Deneb Stone, Chainmail, and Ogryn Flesh... everything else is Americana paints.

Yeah, he's definitely more "action hero implausible" than "real and natural", but this is 40K, not real life. I like injecting realism of pose ot add character into my own models, but at the same time, a little "Over the Top" can be a lot of fun. Heck, that's what makes really creative Ork armies the best thing about 40K (if maybe a bit too silly to be congruous with the background material).

That model reminds me of a professional wrestler leaping off the top rope to execute some kind of impractical finishing move. It's hilarious.

I think he's actually about to Bodyslam and ork with chainswords.


Thanks for the responses fellas, I felt it was pretty fluid/realistic as if he was coming down on his target and I put a slight turn in his body because it seems like you would have some torque coming down with the swords.

Wow! just looked through all of these conversions. Skill level and experience obviously varies but all are awesome. Well done

Converting is one of my favorite aspects of hobbying and I have a go at it whenever possible (with varying results). Here are 2 of my favorites.

I LOVE the Mephiston character and have always been very fond of the old model and love the Astorath model, so with the help of a jewelers saw and a whole lot of dremel gouging, some GS, cork tiles, wire and a lick of paint. Hope you like it.

The other was a rainy day throw together which actually turned out really well.

Thanks all, yeah that is my old blog there and it's got lots of info on the process of making them for those asking. I don't use the blog anymore so feel free to look around but don't expect anything new...

Generally speaking the inner part of the arms are made from cutup parts of the drop pod bits that stick out for the marine to put his back on.

The outer armor plates are either plasticard(pretty obvious in the blog in progress pics) or they are cut up bits of the cockpit for the the sentinel.

The legs are pretty much just Sentinel legs with some added armor from plasticard/sentinel bits.

then of course theres some pretty bad green stuff work i did in there

To make all three you would probably just need:
-Bits from the inside of a drop pod, ask a friend a lot of people make their pods without that inside console. Otherwise a single pod kit could easily do 3 of these or more.
-Sentinel kit, need 1 per model
-little bit of plasticard and green stuff(and better skills with it then i had at the time lol)

Thanks for the parts list mate! You really should see if you can put together a tutorial in the articles section for these, I can't be the only one that sees this as a must have.

I figured it was a dead blog, but I bookmarked it either way for when I can afford the kits. (College Student)

I'm thinking I'll use these, with some huge modifications, as counts as Russ's for my air-mobile guard.

Maybe, truth be told i did them as a start for a Stompa hunter formation in Apoc.

The guns are magnetized, as i planned to make some sniper'ish lascannon's for the apoc formation. I even have all the kits to finish it, but have moved on to other projects. Perhaps one of these days i'll get around to finishing it out.

This is my Dreadknight stomping on demons! Its in mid paint, but you can see the conversion. Its all magnetized, so I can equip it anyway possible.



The base has 6 demons that are attacking the Dreadknight. One being stomped, one running, two cowering, and one jumping on his leg.



A little surprise under the foot for one of the demons being stomped. WTF!

That is a really cool Duke, I like the casual pose with the swords on his back. The proportions of the sheathed weapons and the body is pretty fantastic.
When I made mine I felt the need to give him a cape, because I felt a swash buckling, ship stealing, bipolar, star pirate should have a cape.

Furry Marine!





Was bored of painting my never ending ork boyz, so I decided to mess around with some green stuff and try out yellow. First time painting a space marine as well as edge highlighting and NMM, so sorry for the crappy paint job.

Not much but still a conversion.

So, what iv'e done on it is as follows: some nice and (not so)shiny exhaustpipes, vent kind of thing (rear), antenna, the heavy bolter. And last but not least a conversion on a conversion! the searchlight on the heavy bolter.

enjoy..

Not my best work, actually it's rather poor if truth be told, but certainly two of my favorites. The Broodlord came to be only because I had a bookcase fall on some of my models. My plastic Eldar Falcon took the worst of it, (missed my Epicast one fortunately), snapping off a wing and doing some damage. It's now an Ork vehicle, but I need more hover grots to finish it. Included in the damage was a Terminator leg that snapped and I never did find the rest of it. Rather than toss the bit into my bits box, I noticed that a Terminator helmet fit perfectly into the Broodlord's hand, thus I made him WYSIWYG for his Inhuman Strength rule (lifting a metric ton with one hand must qualify, right).

The other conversion is a weapon replacement to go with my current WIP Tau. Right now I'm struggling with Zaku heads for my Crisis Suits, but you can probably get the idea where this is going.

Mr Merlin, Were you just at the TSHFT this past weekend? I was there with a set of Orks also. I love finding people on the forums who are semi close.

Oooops sorry. It wasn't you. But there was an ork player with the same set up on one of his Killa Kans. Cool display.

Love that sword, proper epic pose too!

Here's my latest WIP - Chaos Lord on Manticore, using Krell's torso (I only wanted the axe and it seemed a waste to not use any other part of him!) I carved the face out and replaced it with a green stuff grill instead, and am contemplating filing off the bat wing shoulder pads and replacing them with the chains etc from the manticore kit.

Well, here is my newest addition to the mess, and i apologize for the shadows around his legs.

I decided i needed a KFF mek for my army, but did not want to bother with Fail-caste (the product that our FLGS gets usually needs half a pot of Liquid Green stuff) and i have terrible luck with ebay. then i saw the remains of my Battle wagons Grabba klaw (the klaw part having been used as a DCCW on the dread i posted earlier) and the legs from a Kan i never built...

head on

one side

and the other

Thanks for the kind words! To be honest, though: That's not an LED. It's just painted on using a really loud green

Wow nice work everyone!

I had a hard time picking just one, I convert to save $$$ by making my own chaplain, command squad, etc.

This is Techmarine 1500cc (named after my bike). He was made from 2 missile launcher backpack arms, an ork chainblade, 2 bolt pistols, and some random clipped off bits like a lanyard ring and knuckle duster from a choppa.



Keep up the great converting!

Converted an Ogre I bought on Ebay into an Obliterator 'counts-as'. The Ogre had already had its right-arm awesomely converted into that Claw so I can't take credit for that.



The paintjob wasn't my best, and I never actually got around to tidying it up (now I have lots of Orks to paint )




My old kit-bashed Autarch. Unfortunately I couldn't find any better photos, and I no longer own the model.
