Since I don't want to spend the money for Cryptek I'm converting them from the left over immortal/warrior bits.. They'll need some more stuff to look the part but here's what I got so far whatcha think? two with Eldritch lances.

These are very cool. I think they look spot on.

They'd make excellent Deathmarks too, very Predator like.

I like em, unique and sufficiently techy to pull off the cryptek vibe.

Also gives you plenty of options to model the upgrades for cryptek to give each one a unique appearance while maintaining a common theme.

I like them

good job

**Flinty**

Very nice work.

Lovely. Never mind crypteks, I'd like to see an army of these guys. It's a brilliant idea, both in its simplicity and execution.

**riplikash**

Great conversion, those will definately pass for crypteks.

Personally I like a bit more techno-mysticism in mine, but you've got a great tech vibe going on there.

I got the Predator vibe from them as well.

OP, I like them...good looking conversion.

Thanks for all the good comments... and now I need some advice on what I should do for this next one. So it's going to be either a Tremorstaff or Voltaic staff but should I attach it to the forearm or it be the forearm?

**Ouze**

Those backpacks are really well done.

I vote for underslung on the forearm. One on each arm

That's what I was thinking.. just need to make a backpack that they can connect.

Got them done up a little...went with orbs instead of the rods

**larva_uk**

Those look really good. Can't wait to see them painted up now.
