Help! I simply refuse to use the metal tankbusta models to build my tankbustaz,Ive used the rokkits and other bits on the basic boyz and loota/burnaz sprue to build 6 tank bustaz so far,but I could realy use some ideas/links for scratch building a few more rokkit launchers.
I've considered making some GS rokkits and fixing them onto some modified shootahz but I'm not sure if I want to go that way.
So,any Ideas guys,I could really use some help.
Thanks

the actual rokkit is the only hard part - once you have that, you can stick it on the end of almost any tube-like launcher, e.g. I've seen converted burnas and shootas used.

Rokkits I've used include:
- the front half of the missiles from the old IG vehicle sprue (the same could be done with the new one)
- marine missle launchers (if you have a lootas army)
- that weird WHFB Imperial multiple rocket launcher, can't remember its name
- 1/48 scale aircraft rockets and missiles from a kit at my local model shop

Thanks Clang,I've got a few GS rokkits on the go and am going to attempt to build the launchers from some plastic rod/shootas and some guitar strings.

Use a shoota and chop off the magazine. Greenstuff the edge shut and then use a bit of tube to use as a base off of the end the shoota. Use your greenstuff on the plastic tube. I've seen one converted like that with a plastic sucker stick.

I converted some Deffcoptas from BR into the Big Shoota option, and have a lot of extra rokkit fronts .. so maybe if you have the models lying around you can do the same..

-P

good point, the koptas only include the rokkit tips, but that's all you need for a rokkit launcher boy

you could use the end of a cheap pen. then make the rest of the rokkit from there
