Same here, now he needs a stormtalon to signify the changed product!


Thanks guys.

An air Viking only has missile launchers, so I would play that as a Land Speeder Typhoon. It would fit better with the overall size of the Dreadnought version as well. Also I've got my Banshee to act as a Stormtalon, if I ever want to use one

My only conversions are my first AoBR tac marines that I'm still working on (and are also my only remotely completed models, because I'm pathetically slow). Have since removed the scope from the 3rd one to make it look like a slightly different pattern bolter (as if anybody is going to notice). The ML SM pic is WIP, obviously. The missile loading arm is 100% AoBR (piece that attaches to the pack is from a donor pack)...until I add the missile anyway. Got overzealous and clipped off some detail on the upper arm where it attaches to the lower, so I'll have to fix that.

Its hard to be awesome, when your playing with little plastic men.
Welcome to Fantasy 40k

If you think your important, in the great scheme of things. Do the water test.

Put your hands in a bucket of warm water,
then pull them out fast. The size of the hole shows how important you are.
I think we should roll some dice, to see if we should roll some dice, To decide if all this dice rolling is good for the game.

That is conversion perfection!

Excellent conversion work... from some dwarfs, putty and some self-cast heads. An army of these will look the business... even moreso with a bit of Sci-fi kit as well.

A terrortoise.... or in other words, kit bash conversion made from Avatars of war dwarf, greenstuff and a head I sculpted and had cast up (though only 5 of them)

If you mean what's it for. Anything I want, as I don't play any of the big GW games, it's likely to get used in Mordheim.

Cheers for the comment , as above I only have 5 heads though.... lol (I will probably push mold some though). I was thinking about sci-fi as well but I'm not srue what I would replace the loin cloth with.

Thanks!

It's the Empire Battle Standard bearer I converted to be my Greatsword General on foot. I used 11 different pieces to bring this about. The script is actual paper and thread that I painted up and glued on. the right arm is a 5 part construction from Empire Knight plastic arm parts and other sword bits.

The head is from the Empire Militia box I think. The laurel is from the Knights sprue.
