My converted piranha. I call it the Mako.

Took me a while, all of the legs are magnetic, as is the tail, it has full internal lights . Its currently being repainted.

I love that Ork!

Here is my newest build, the Mk III Fire Support Angel (counts as Manticore).



Standing next to an Armoured Sentinel;

Standing next to the Mk IV Battle Angel;

Just finished building it today, its now primed and awaiting to be painted tomorrow.

Nice use of pencils/color markers

That is one angry looking crab tank monster thing, nice one

@lt soundwave, I normally don't like tau but that conversion is pretty badass

Awesome stuff like always !

@ultraraider, is that red termite sand on the base of that ork? if so how do you attach it to the base i cant seem to find a way for it to stay on the base

Not technically best, just best I have a picture of right now, and not technically "model", since it's a group shot, but it's what I have here and snapped so might as well post it: I give you, the first wave of my Gretchen Archeological Expedition and their archeotech artefact finds, for use as terrain-counter-things:


(man, I really need to find a better place for taking photos)

@ Nightbringer's Chosen: I really love that idea! The Grotz are fantastic anyway, but converting them to look like archeologists is an excellent idea

In other news, the lack of World Eaters in this thread is a problem. Let me help you out there:

Love 'em! This is a great idea, I'm thinking about copying it....

Now, I can't remember if I actually have posted in this thread before since I have followed it forever and always considered it, but here we are!
These are the ones that I am the most happy with.

Venerable(!) Dreadnought


Obligatory plasma guy, everyone should have at least one in their army.


Librarian Greg of the Grey Knights, this guy is a complete kitbash.


Sir Sly Marbo and his murderous matching Luggage with adjustable lid! I made this one for MrMerlin so he may have posted this in here before though.


Justicar Anval Thawn, mostly a kitbash and to be honest it is mostly in the painting. BUT STILL!


Warrior Acolyte Gentleman with PA and flamer


Ordo Xenos Inquisitor, (again to be completely honest, mostly a paintjob thing. Though I did scratchbuild the cane.) I am very happy about how he turned out so he gets to join the showcase!


Scratchbuilt Vindicare Assassin! Comes with interchangeable signs such as "Occupy Box" and "I am just a box, DON'T SHOOT!"


Apparently he can also be found on the 1d4chan wiki on vindicares... who'd 'ave thunk?
http://1d4chan.org/wiki/Vindicare LOL

I think that's all, but there is more brewing. Most of these are a few months old.

Anyway, just want to end off by saying that there is SOOO much talent in this thread and so many cool and inspirational things. My chin hurts from hitting the desk too many times.

Ok, my DK captain (with assault cannon!) and my 'wolverine' vanguard veteran.'

You should do one up with an old leather jacket, fedora, and a whip.

Dammit. I already used the whip from that sprue for another project.
Well, we'll see what I can do...

Link to the original P&M Blog thread and you're more than welcome to! Curious to see what you come up with.
To be honest, it would've been easier with guardsmen, they're more dynamic, but I thought Gretchen are more amusing, and the store I'm making them for is called Dirty Goblin Games, so...

I really like the diggas

So here is my latest, done except for basing. Rory Swann here to lead Tychus and his boys to glory!



(With a little help from Betty, of course)

I'm pretty happy with my Chaos Lord on Foot






And a Chaos Sorcerer I did. Simple but effective

These have got to be the most Gentlemanly miniatures on dakka dakka. I can't believe I haven't made any like that. Great job!

Haha, about time someone made a pun on (Vindi)Care!
Nice Gentleman-y flavour, I approve!

And to KrautScientist, as I said on Throneofskulls, that's one mean bad guy.

Anyway... My LR of Doom and Skulls is finished!

@YourSwordisMine
Those chaos guys are awesome!

Not NEARLY as good as a lot of people on here, but here goes nothing

@Avragehuman: That thing looks sweet, but is it finished? There seems to be some paint missing. Awesome piece of mini you have there, even more so if the head looks like I think it looks.

Thanks man! Here's a picture of where he stands now.

Nice conversions all over the place here

Here my last addition to Da Krazy Pak: Old Mek Bark Laud.

DijnsK wrote:@YourSwordisMine

Thanks! I'm really proud of them! Especially the Lord. He turned out much better than I expected.

Only a very very very small "conversion" (if you can call it that) but I think it just looks so cool

Not finished at all but it's my count-as Astorath for my GK ally blog " Failures of Titan "

We can always use more world eaters, and is that the skull throne I see!
