Not really a tutorial, but the WIP pictures are on my Terranwing blog here:

Not sure I'm up for making another... it was a bit involved in parts, but I'm very happy with the result.

You do of course realise that you will have to replace that paint pot with one of the new ones, seeing as the colour range has been revised

Seriously, though: Great idea, great execution!

You know, you don't HAVE to quote his entire post to make your point? We've all already scrolled through his pictures once and, as lovely as they are, we don't need to see them a second time unless we want to, and if thats the case we can simply go back a few pages. Just say "@whoever your complementing" then comment. Just an idea.

Here are some of my marine conversions, ranging from fairly simply to really complex.

My Imperial Fists Chapter Master




Imperial Fists Captain




Vulkan He'Stan(apologies in advance - only had a phone to take pics with at the time)




Blood Angels Chaplain(aka Brother Chaplain Kage Mk I, aka "Destro")




Imperial Fists Brother Chaplain Kage Mk II




Imperial Fists Stenguard Veteran




Imperial Fists Librarian(aka The Poor Man's Sevrin Loth)



At this point(as far as he got), he's more of a kitbash than a conversion, but there was going to be a fair amount of greenstuff work for cables, the horns on the chest skull, blinging out the right shoulder pad, Grey Knight lettering on the legs filled in, etc.
