Tempest Six Two wrote:Got a few conversions here...

AoBR SM captain- head and raised collar removed, left gun removed, Mk6 beaky DA head added (with wings) after opening up the relief at the front of his collar.. Plasma pistol left hand, right arm is a tactical marine forearm, the hand/sword is from a Ravenwing Vet.Sgt. I added some DA bitz on the front to hide all the normal SM brooches and whatnot, and gave him a Sang Guard winged jump pack. Pretty happy with him, and he sees a lot of tabletop time killing vehicles with meltabombs...

And this is my Belial- he's made with a normal Terminator body, raised up a few mms at the waist, and his left leg was cut off at the hip and moved forward to make him look like he's striding into battle. Left arm is a normal Term Sgt powersword cut to be raised up in the air, with the blade reprofiled to look like Azrael's one (they came from the same meteorite, so should look similar?). Shoulderpads are plasticard, he's rocking an iron halo, and i cut sections into the back of his armour for the sang guard wings. Oh, and there's the greaves on the front of his legs, made from big DA winged angel icons, which were bent and superglued around the legs (which were carved back a fair bit) after being heated. The splits where they bent were filled with GS. Never doing anything like that job again, uhh! He still needs some paintwork to be done, and i have a DA symbol for his chestplate, hence why its not completed yet. Also, sorry for the terrible photos...

Rhino, converted to a Deathskull looted wagon with Boomgun! Used some opened up rhino top hatch doors to craft the raised section, and lots of cool reinforcing struts and stuff from my bitz box to make it look crudely built.. leman russ turret, with LR side sponson pieces used to make a blast shield, and Killa Kan 'pogo leg' pieces glued on the sides as recoil suppresors... possibly my most favourite conversion yet!

And this little WIP- its based on Irondog's DoW Wartrakk template, i've just narrowed mine, and added a rokkit boy for a driver (he loads new rokkits from his backpack . I also used Deffkopta rotor blades for the platform that the driver's plate mounts on, as its got loads of cool overlapping metal plates and rivets.Going to build three, with a bit more help from my friend eBay

I love the work, very top notch

**KrautScientist**

@ Cutthroatcure: Seconded! Tempest Six Two, that stuff is amazing! Great DA models, and I really love the colour of that Ork tank!

In other news: I forgot to post this:

My latest Chaos Dread with different weapons options and removable facemask. More pictures in my World Eaters thread, in case anyone's interested

Oh, and I am also rather fond of this guy atm:

A WIP World Eater, channeling the legion's gladiatorial origins.

**MrMerlin**

Nice paintjob, anythingwithnecrons!

Here's something I'm working on atm....

**inquisitorlewis**

May as well join in on this thread. Bought this fellow yesterday and promptly hacked him up to convert.

He has had a head swap, an arm swap, and a hand swap. Still have some finishing up to do on him, but you get the point. Pretty happy to have this model in my collection.

Thanks, mate. It's a little embarrassing, but the story's simply too good to keep quiet, so:
That cork was bought by my Dad during the late 70s to cover the sides of his stereo system's speaker cabinets

Don't ask, it must have been some stupid fashion trend.
Anyway, the stuff has to be older than me, but I recovered it from the tool shed and am now using it to great effect on my bases. Go figure...

**Scarper**

@Selvaggio - That is the most orky way to enter combat I have ever seen. What a fantastic conversion!

**SelvaggioSaky**

Thanks a lot Scarper.

That first one is totally awesome.

2nd one a little much

**caledoneus**

That first DP is pretty dang cool... love the eagle head.
Good job man

I actually like the 2nd better than the first.

Thanks.

The "eagle head" was from the Griffon model in the WHFB starter set. I also used the front talons to make his legs and the wings on the 2nd DP.

The 2nd DP's head was from a High Elf Dragon.

Basically, I wanted to make two Daemon Princes without having to buy two Daemon Prince boxes

This is my version of Gunnery Sergeant Harker.

There was no disrespect it just reminded me of Extreme Dinosaurs more then anything and was more comical then DP scary
