I want to convert my valks to vendettas. Do I have to model each weapon with two lascannons? I doubt I will get this done before ard boyz though :(

Yeah, they have to be double Las', as they must be represented on the model.

Generally speaking, twin-linked weapons tend to be modeled with two of the same weapon together. I can't really see the problem though as all you need are 6 lascannons from HWT's.

That or FW's vendeta conversion kit is cheap (for FW) coming to less than £15 with shipping if I remember correctly

Or you could say the pilot's a crack shot...? I do that for my exodite dragon riders. Supposed to have TL Shuris, but they've only got the one so I say they're deadeyes and it flies in the tourneys I play at.

'Ardboys might be different though, weird that they don't require painting but your models better be wysiwyg.

Double Barrel should do the trick.

No heavy bolters in that.

2 Valkyrie kits net you with a Lascannon for each side of the hull(and anyone would be a fool not to keep the multilaser on a Valkyrie), and then all you need is 4 HWT lascannons(easy enough to get)

Sentinels and the HW teams are a great source. I coupled two sentinel lasers to two larger HW team lasers in offset pairs with the smaller gun on the outside. Looks pretty cool. The I cut the multilaser barrel and glued it next to the cockpit laser. Looks close enough that nobody notices.

Why cant they just makea vendetta model?It would be overselling good

The only difference between the vendetta and the valk is the lascannons. If you want a vendetta, just stick lascannons on a valk, or get the conversion kit which is pretty cheap.
It doesn't need a whole kit for itself.

Uh, okay? Who cares? The valk comes with heavy bolters.

Hey guys thanks for the replys.... my problem is getting the money for either. Spending 50 dollars-100 dollars to model 6 valks seems a little crazy to me. But I guess Im going to have to. I was going to use HW lascannons, but it seemed just as pricey on ebay

Valks are expensive. The FW lascannon kits are okay deals and look better than just bits. That's what you get when you make a 6 valk army.
