I figure, that when this project is done, it'll be on a whole my greatest conversion job:

**The Baron**

Possibly my biggest (at least most fiddly) project yet.

But using the Battlewagon Upgrade pack and a squad of Grots I made it into a drive-by shooting machine.

Complete with swearing Grot.

Not entirely polished, but I think I'm happy with this.

Anyone want any other shots/angles let me know.

**Cutthroatcure**

I love how you used the ram as a face plate for it...Very Slick!

WHOA! You just gave me an idea for a cool deff rolla using that ram. Add a set of "jaws" under neath so it looks like its chomping. Hmmmmmmmmmmmm.........

I love that model. It just looks so crazy and funny, like the rayman "rabbids". I can imagine that thing firing at anything that moves while screaming, rabbid-style, BWAAAAAH!!!"

**Vallhemn**

Theres a LOT of talent on this thread! WOW!
I'm loving that ork conversion!

I've no idea if these are going to show up or not (first image post), but hopefully I can show you guys my XVAngels:

**The Baron**

I can't really see what's going on in them photos. I don't know the Tau that well.

Cutthroatcure wrote:I love how you used the ram as a face plate for it...Very Slick!

Hell yeah. I like to use as much as possible. Bollocks to just using one, otherwise it'd be left in a box/bag with all the other random bitz which won't get used.

Now for my next trick I was planning on doing a weird battle between 3 monsters/daemons/whatever coloured like the first generation starter Pokémon, for random fun. Anyone got any ideas for what I could use for a Venusaur? For Charizard and Blastoise I think I can effectively modify two daemon princes. But the third... Not sure how to get the flower on its back. Any suggestions?

If you're thinking what I'm thinking, wouldn't that be a little impractical? How can the rolla get to work crushing stuff up if there's a massive jaw blocking it?

Here is My take on a Farseer on Jet bike.

well, you ARE talking about orks...they aren't exactly universally famous for being practical...

I thought that also, but The Baron is going on amazing intuition they may know this bit.

Is it just me, or should this model's base be an ocean wave? I can just imagine the Farseer using the phrase "That's so gnarly dude!"

**Darkmoonlight**

HEres mine

**stompydakka**

that looks FANTASTIC!

Hahaha that's exactly what I thought of too.

That DP is balls-to-the-walls awesome! Although, I'm guessing the chains don't really help cut through power armor, but who cares when it looks that cool.

**The Baron**

What did you use to create the base?

**Darkmoonlight**

thanks for the comments!!!!!!!! i assume your talking about the base on my demon prince? if so i just used a couple of pieces of slate I found whilst out walking one day and then just like gravel and stuff to get the smaller stones.

**Cutthroatcure**

It really is fantastic work on the DP....I like to think with the unholy power of the warp the blunt force alone would rip thru power armour.

**Lord Shag**

This is my current best.

**Krork**

These are all amazing!

**The Baron**

More closeups on the bike please!

The Rose of Slaanesh?

**Brother SRM**

I don't think I've posted my IG scout car (counts as Salamander Command Tank)

I've since added a bit more detail.

**Wazzdig Dagga**

Not sure if this is my best, but its definately been the trickiest to get right. I had to pull bits off so many times and trawl through my bits box. He still needs painting.

...I think I got the gist of that. If I'm right, hopefully this helps more than my (admittedly) brief earlier post. If not, then feel free to disregard it.

As far as I know (not much into Chaos, you see) the Rose of Slaanesh is basically a Greater Pleasure Daemon, one of the higher ups in the Slaaneshi heirarchy. She's something of a, well, a flower whore. I'm actually not even sure if she's an actual GW character. But the flower theme would fit with her in any case. Think vines, thornes, and razor-edged rose petals.

For actually sculpting the rose, start with dozens of petals of greenstuff, thin, small. Curl one up almost into a tube, then just continue layering them around it, overlapping each and making sure not to squish them together too much.

**weetyskemian44**

scratch built Rogue trader style dreadnought. All milliput and GS except the guns and the exhaust pipe. Will be painted soon I hope

**I-bounty-hunt-the-elderly**

Lord Shag is one of (in my experience) very few peoplpe with the stones to convert a forgeworld model like that! Given how irritating to work with resin is, and the expense, most anyone I know would just paint the sucker as assembled!
