Here's my best conversion so far as it is my first completed.

Nice, I like the use of the Dark Elf shield symbol, it really works on the dread. The doom siren mouth thingies around the chainfist and autocannon are a nice touch too.

**niallkissick**

That renegade dread is a thing of sheer beauty! i commend your work sir!

**The Baron**

Can't help but thinking it would look sexier darker though...

I'm still working on her, but this one happens to be the favorite of my vehicles. If you're flying a ship, it's entirely likely that you'll find yourself pressed into imperial service with the guard. This particular crew found themselves having their ship designated a "Modified Valkyrie".... I still have a lot of weathering to do on her to dusk her up right; but here she is.

**delrohir**

They're all lookin' really good.

Love the "firefly" !

Crazy as it may sound, you may actually have that fulfilled in a week or two, if my vision comes to fruition once I'm back with my modeling supplies.

I mean- 2 LC, 2 TL sponson punisher cannons, 4 missile pods and a stormblade plasma destructor?! How many points would that be? 600 at least...

630pts

@tipios

Nice to see that dread finally done, I was following it on the other thread and its come together really well! The use of the daemon mouths to add details is very well excecuted.

I am so excited you have no idea and request photos of this endeavor!

Skaven Tank Bustas (not painted)

**tipios**

I like the 40k Skaven airship and troops, great stuff.

Thanks everyone for your coments on my dread.

@Reanimator, drilling those heads out is a pain, but it's well worth the effort. Congratz on winning the Dec comp great painting, I've got some tau stealth suits to paint I might try to get 1 done for the next comp.

I always said that head would look really good on a LotD model, and now you make one! I was going to do one...after my grand master...and falchion...and heresy-era army...and DKoK...and grey knights...yeah it'll be a while.

that looks more like a tau flyer. (I know it's made out of tau bits) But it is some nice conversion work. A wash would look really good on that.

**Ultrasmurf_no_REALY**

yeah some of these are real good

**Valhallan42nd**

I'm fond of my Horn Pattern Storm Ravens, based off a pattern found on BoLS:

I also like my scratch built hydras:

**Ailaros**

There, see?

THAT'S how GW could have made a decent looking storm raven.

**Valhallan42nd**

Thank you, sir, though I cannot claim full credit, as I copied the idea.

But I'll tell anyone who says "It's not the genuine model" that they can pound sand where the sun don't shine...

**Lokirfellheart**

Like the 40k Skaven- Most attempts at making those has ended badly, but not those.

**.Kern.**

Mounted Kroot shaper, bit weerd but hey, kroot ARE weerd

The 'Green':

Painted:

Front: Mini-deffrolla + Scary kroot worm statue (made from sprue)

**ranger1977**

close account

**Reanimator**

@kern
I'm not sure if i've missed a link, not knowing a great deal of tau fluff, but the kroot machine seems a tad "orky" to me. Having said that, the humour in the model is great, especially the eyes on stalks effect.

@ Ranger1977
I'm a big fan of dymanic posing, but being unfamiliar with the original model I'm not sure exactly how much conversion has gone into your chapter master piece. Whether its mostly you or mostly the original sculpt, its still come off really well. More please!

It is struggling to watch it, in a good way. You have really captured the feel of them fighting against a hard wind. Good work

.... GAH! the wind!..... can't... look... away.... hggnnn! ><

That arm looks friggin awsome! Nice paintjob. The tubes/vains on the arm looks really organic.
