This is my WIP librarian on a 'hover' bike. As you can see I intend to mount in on a biker base with a wee flying stick. The flames were green stuffed and the rider is half a ravenwing rider and half a librarian with plasma pistol. The book is gonna go on top of the bolters so the librarian wont forget any spells etc.

Sneaky Striking Scorpion






Peoria, Illinois

a rifleman dreadnaught with lascannons, interesting. great work, though i'm not keen on it's head, however without it it wouldn't be a rifleman.

that librarian bike is good stuff, nice work on the flames.

the Brass Scorpion. dude there aren't enough words to express just how good that thing looks, even if the paint job is experimental it stands out and does justice to the rest of the model. 3 dakka

that Harpy is beautiful brah. and that paint scheme is the same.

It was just my attempt at making a scorpion defiler, although with the addition of FWs "Greater Brass Scorpion" I could now use this as the lesser version. As for the paintjob, that was very early stages, current version is more complete but I will be redoing it when I resume my thousand sons army.

I'm not happy with the colour palette

How do they do in game battles with such size? Also sweet glass case to keep them on, if I was not in college that would be one of my first purchases.

This is my most recent conversion, it represents a greater daemon of Slaanesh in my Emperors children army and is made from; the keeper of secerets torso and 3 of his arms,the other arm is from the plastic chaos spawn box and the bottom half is made from the trygon tail not a great deal of work needed for it but it still needs some finishing touches.

To be honest i think the actual palette is nice and definately works for a thousand suns army. I would just look to darken it up and add some definition. A Blue wash on the plates and maybe a drybrush to pick out the edges would probably do the job nicely.
