My best conversion, Skulltaker on a chariot:







Cost me a Warhammer fantasy chariot, Skulltaker and a box of juggernaughts. My demon army is themed for a snoy-covered battlefield. You can see crushed barb wire under the juggernaughts feet, doesn't show too well in the photos but its there.

I made these Scourges out of the following kits:

Dark Eldar Kabalite Warriors- Used the upper torso, arms and head.

http://www.games-workshop.com/gws/catalog/productDetail.jsp?prodId=prod900151a


Dark Eldar Wyches- Used the running legs

http://www.games-workshop.com/gws/catalog/productDetail.jsp?catId=cat440233a&prodId=prod900152a


Tyranid Gargoyle Brood- the wings

http://www.games-workshop.com/gws/catalog/productDetail.jsp?catId=cat440299a&prodId=prod350002a


Assembly was fairly straight forward. I did have to file the wing stubs to get them to fit to the backpacks and look natural.

I am using "Anime" blue scheme for my army. I left the Scourges a little darker then the rest of my army will be. It seemed to me they would need the cover in the skies of Commorragh.

Here is my best conversion. He is my first really, not including the 'ard boys I have which really only had armor stuck onto them.

I call him Straight Shoota. He is doing his best to actually shoot his target. His axe is strapped to his back, and is aiming with two hands. And he is using his guns sights too! Other Orks look on in disbelief.

Hahaha, that's nice! He looks like he's concentrating really hard - great choice of head, and good angling too. Never seen an ork posed like that before

I generally do not paint any model that is not a conversion (Yeah I'm a glutton for punishment and really slow at building stuff), But this one had to have been one of my favorites. I may redo this idea again with a little help from Kathie von Vhoorl's painting. I will take a little extra time to make the new one a little neater.

This is assuming there are other Tyranids in the area so the Hive Mind can communicate their location to Blindifex.

At least put some shades on him.
