Hi there!
Since there is no OFFICIAL model for a conversion beamer I decided to make my own.
Here are the pics of it:

Cheers and comments would be most welcome,

(Edite the pics)

**akira5665**

No pics Visible here dude...

**Bullfrog**

Yeah, not working for me either.

**Jordankeeps**

retry?

**lord_blackfang**

It looks like a really good conversion but I wish the pics were less blurry.

**The_mini_painter**

Re-poste the pics and they should be working now

**TungstenMonkey**

If you could i would re-upload better pics as they very very blurry , cant really tell what it is at the mo, but it looks like interesting take on conversion beamer

T-M

**Bullfrog**

Pics are now working, unfortunately I can only see slightly more detail due to the blurriness.

**HadoukenAvenger**

Nice Jukebox

Seriously though, if you get us some better pictures you'll get better responses.

**Howard A Treesong**

Looks like a multi-melta... but seriously don't people check their photos before they put them online? Does it look visible to the OP, because it doesn't to me. Maybe I need some new glasses.

**Content Josho**

This thread has told me two things.

1. I have cataracts.

2. I really fancy a game of Connect 4.

**HadoukenAvenger**

...fething 3D technology, I can never find the bloody glasses...

**xcasex**

connect the dots is now my favorite game..
Could you perchance post better pics? i can barely make out the melta nozzle...

**Melkhiordarkblade**

Kinda hard to make out.

**Kravox**

Good model, but aren't they supposed to be employed by a Techmarine?

Don't put up better images (really easy to do in this case), put up clear images or don't bother like you should have the first time.

**The_mini_painter**

Re uploaded the images

**Flying Pooo**

That looks great. Nice blending with the green.

**Jordankeeps**

Wow looks great man well done!!

**Khorne Flakes**

But how is an inquisitor in carapace armor going to carry it? It looks more like a Multi-Melta with a combi Psycannon -______-

A techmarine has the conversion beamer and it doesnt say it is carried around

If you didnt know old termies in space hulks used Conversion Beamers the size of storm bolters -_- from 1st to 2nd or 3rd ed so making a Multi-Melta with a combi Psycannon is too damn big

**1hadhq**

GK codex page 59, conversion beamer.

Looks like its bigger than a standard/special weapon, rather heavy weapon sized.

IMo the conversion here is ok if moved on a bike. Carried id prefer the GK dex variant.

Yea there is a picture of a conversion beamer in the GK codex. Looks like a supped up lascannon.

**Holycrusader27**

I like it but I'd like to see it how its held by a techmarine.

**Cottonjaw**

Decent. Could be a conversion beamer turret or something like that. Not exactly sure how it would be employed without "The Emperor's Holy Computer Cart" or something like that.

**The_mini_painter**

This model was made before the new gk codex and I only recently found it and painted it. It was made in 2009 for my motf space marine army

**Andrew1975**

You can look on line to see what a conversion beamer looks like. This looks nothing like one. It looks like a melta.

Because I havent seen the new ones and I want my army to look old. As technology improves things get smaller so I think this fits in perfectly with my army.
They are based just after the Horus Heresy.
