That is a great chap-brarian, I love the detail you went into in describing what you did to it. I'd find that intimidating on a table.

I got a Necron Tomb Spider made out of an Easter egg, sprue bits for claws and legs, Acura RSX Engine for body, fuel canisters on back, and some hubcaps on his rear. This is my ONLY "conversion" model

Looks like his paint's coming off again.

Home made minis are the way forward- now we just need one made of clay or something..

Anyone?

some of my better conversions/buildies, and yes, made mostly of clay

Kroot-suits........ I like it lol cz

kmopotato nice looking scratch build there, if your paint keeps falling off I would suggest either a better primer or giving the model a rub with the finest wet and dry sandpaper you can find in your local auto tools and meterials shop (halfords in the uk usualy) this will give the primer something to bond to and hold.

now those are exquisit kroot suits very nicely done PossumCraft. And you sculpted some of those comonants out of clay... Very Impressive.

Ohhh gawd I sound really sarcastic don't I... I'm being honest and the sarcastic tone was unintentional and unwanted.

AWESOME! I'm a huge Deadpool fan. I'm happy you posted this!

kroot suits are epic!! i like the way one has the claw hand as well, veyr nice

It's surprising how much work went into these, I thought it would be a quick job to remove the goblin face but actually it took a lot of doing and I had to cut away the arms and shields and shape the bodies a bit so there wasn't an awful lot left of the goblin in the end. I wanted to do loads, I wanted them manning some big ad mech vehicle, but five was enough in the end.

I've already posted but here are some better pics of him painted....









Cheers. And keep the good conversions coming...

Love the Battle Wagon Valkerie!

@da40korks - that is the most awesomely ridiculous bit of Orky kit I think I've ever seen... well done, sir

I haven't added to this thread in a while, so I thought I would show off my recently completed Terranwing attack squadron, consisting of 3 Vulture class bikes, a Hellion class attack buggy and a Diamondback class speeder (what is this strange thing you call tank hunting?)

Whats the base models for those jet bikes? they look pretty sick.


Edit : wooo, just realized they are based off Terran stuff from SC2, nice, lol

Starcraft Terrans indeed

My WIPs are here (Vultures starting on Page 4) if you're interested, but the base models are jetbikes with Marine Scout Bikers as riders. The engines are made up from Tau stealthsuit torsos and a chopped up jump-pack.

I've just converted a 15mm walker into a 28mm one for my Grymn (Space Dwarf) army:



There is more info on my blog:

http://insosworld.blogspot.com/2011/09/job-done.html

I think it has worked out OK...a bit rustic in places...

Here's what the original looked like:

This though is my pride and joy. I loved trying to convert him and paint up my custom Vulkan He'stan


I may try to add some kind of a glowing orange to the halberd but I love how he came together.

Beautiful. Does it say when confronted with an enemy: "Put down your weapon, you have 15 seconds to comply" ?

Because if it doesn't. It should.

I have to agree without a carrying capasity all you have there is a really big buggy... It's a very cool Buggy.

Who needs boyz when youve got that thing zipping around discharging 700 rounds per second at you?
