My first conversion ever,not my best but it was always one of my favorites.

My Slaanesh Daemon Prince:

In the process of painting him now...

Most current ... and current favorite conversion.

Kommandant Skull-Krusher and his attack Squig 'Rippa!

Skull-Krusher never goes into battle without his plasma reactor powered hover attack bike and his attack squig Rippa'!
And Rippa never goes into battle without Mr. Cuddles and his 'bankie'.

Love It!

in terms of sculpting I think my power armoured rainbow dash has to be one of my best
(counts as SM captain with relic blade, arty armour and bike)



wip shots are in my sig along with the rest of the army

The P&M is full of just as much beautiful Pony Action!

Here is my Chaos Sorcerer, built from spare parts:

Hey I will bite







Lord of Chaos, Favored of Khorn, Slaughterer Korbulo on his mount Kulg'has
Str 5, 7 attacks on the charge and a plasma pistol just for giggles XD

I green stuffed the cape, and had to completely seperate the legs from the hips, shave the contact surface on the legs, and reglue them so they would splay out properly. It was loads of fun
to make and to paint

@mrmerlin, thanks! its funny because when I dug it out for this picture,I thought of your pirate/ork/raider crew instantly. Striped pants and all that.

@Cutthroatcure, you just made me realize I never painted the guardsman face! Thanks

I never post replies on this thread. There is literally so many Fan-freakin'-tastic works on here,
I'd never have time to post anywhere else!

So I'd like to offer a blanket, heartfelt statement:
"To all of you maniacs that posted all your hard work on here - Thank You!!!!"

It's one thing to make it, but to take the tme to share it is awesome too!

I made this from a Pegasus mount. I quite frankly questioned my sanity when i was done. It is based of an MLP model.
Everything on that model aren bits(excluding the rider)
They are all modeled on with milliput. Even the horn is GS wrapped around a paper clip and the tail is entirely custom made. I also learned how to make cool gems.
Also note how i removed the entire bridle and made it look like it never existed.

This one is definitively my favorite of all these pages. Just incredibly amazing. Can't big this up enough.

oh yes, I totally agree!

^ I love how detailed the green stuff work is on it. Very very classy and well done!

The Baron still doesn't understand how Green stuff can be used so awesomely. It simply isn't pliable enough when he uses it.

i believe this whole heartedly.

IMO, a conversion shouldn't scream "THIS IS A CONVERSION". It should look like the model came in a kit, and you did very little to no work on it.

No no no, I must protest here. I don't want to spend countless hours/effort and resources to make something unique and special, just for someone to simply assume I built it from the instructions on the box.

But then The Baron gets to brag about it being self-constructed, and blow the socks of everyone who assumed otherwise!

My stompa with krusha ball! (Sorry for bad picture quality.)

I prefer subtle stuff when it comes to conversions, to be honest.

I think it's best when they're good enough to have come in a kit, but don't look like anything else that's out there. Otherwise, what's the point?

That's actually an infinitely better way to describe how i think conversions should look than the way i explained it

I'm really ham-fisted sometimes

Anvildude wrote:But then The Baron gets to brag about it being self-constructed, and blow the socks of everyone who assumed otherwise!

Ah, that depends on the person. If someone wishes to go into grand detail about what they did, so be it. All I would ever say is that it was a conversion. If they wanted to know more I would provide.

Obsidian Raven wrote:I prefer subtle stuff when it comes to conversions, to be honest.

Once again that depends on the conversion. Some people like the subtle stuff, some like more grand efforts. I don't think either should go unnoticed.

Converstions are good when they come as the model in the box, but can be made to look unique... So what you're saying is that there is no point in conversions which have bits from other models?

No, I just think they're best when they're really unique. That's still certainly possible to do if you kitbash in creative ways.
