Hey!

I finally decided to convert my own night scythe because the lack of minis in the may launch. What do you guys think?

Comments welcome!

That's really nice! love the weathering.

Looks like drop pod bits and Annihilation Barge bits, did you use anything else?

**Surfboard66**

LOVE the paint job!

**darkdm**

I'm not going to lie, I saw the tittle and thought to myself "oh dear, please don't let it be another eldar vehicle conversion". What you've made is fantastic, I love the whole thing! And it's painted very well to boot.; the weathering is very nicely done.

Its an interesting take on the design of a night scythe. I'd buy it if this was the 'official' model.

These droppod bits fit nearly too goood...... the machine god is pleased, I guess ....................and thats scary.

*leaves to purge himself of these imaginations of tech heresy*

**iflywhirlybirds**

That's fantastic! It just screams" I may not look like I can fly but I WILL find and kill you"

+1 for the color scheme too

I second buying this, how much would you be offering them for?

This is a great model! Great weathering too.

I think I love you. The use of bits, the colours, the conversion, it's all just so perfect...

**Mewiththeface**

It is an amazing conversion and paintjob, but the wings make it look like a chaos vehicle, not a necron one. I really think it needs the crescent pattern, its a nice motif that really gives necron stuff that touch.

**JBrehaut**

Wow, it's an upside down Annihilation Barge! Very very cool, nice use of the kit, and also, it's been mentioned, but the paint job, particularly the weathering, is top notch! Love it!

Although I can see the above poster's point, and somewhat agree (about the crescent shape) it's still a top effort

**Langston128**

Cool color scheme

**Skip**

Thank you guys for the nice comments so far! And yeah, I must admit that the drop pod parts don't fit 100% but it's the best way I could find. And it's realy easy to convert

**Norn King**

That looks sick.

**Ouze**

In body shape, it looks a little like the original Laserbeak.

**HaerDalis**

That is just so awesome....second the comment about the droppods bits fitting just a little too well.

**thesilverback**

Nice conversion and great paint job.

**Viersche**

Nice work

**Raatcharch**

I love the conversion and paint job. Very cool!

G1 Laserbeak comparison? This threads cool factor just busted through the roof.

**Teurastaja**

Simply amazing...

**PewPewPewing**

Original paint job and clever bitz use, amazing model.

**VardenV2**

I don't know if you ever play Starcraft or Starcraft 2, but this paint scheme and shape etc makes it look a lot like a Protoss vehicle, in particular, the Phoenix from Starcraft 2.

This is not a bad thing, as those vehicles look really badass, and have a very ancient but sophisticated feel to them, similar to Eldar and Necron.

I didn't realize this was a conversion at first. Not only do I love your build, I think that the paint job is very unique as well. (Unique in a good way, not a short-bus way.)

**progreen10**

O_O

There are some things that words cannot describe how awesome they are. this is one.

**Xenocidal Maniac**

It's really cool. I think you did a great job with both the conversion and the painting.

**Warpseer**

Nice work. Reminds me of Borderlands for some odd reason.

**Thortek**

Very Very nice

**paulguise**

I am SO stealing this idea to make my night scythes.

Great job on the kit bashing and the paint job is really a nicely done departure from the standard metal.

Plus 1 awesome.

**Smitty0305**

very cool
