What is it?
A braincrusha is an ork gunwagon from epic. Mine counts as a battlewagon, though I'll probably use it as something more in apoc: a killkannon just doesn't do that 'uge gun justice.
If you mean what did I use: a toy armored car for the bottom, tracks from some toy for the tracks, a tea tin for the main body, a makeup container (not mine, of course) for the gun, cardboard covered in craft stick shingles for the roof, a paint pot with the same shingles for the highest turret, and a battery for the deff rolla (braincrushas don't normally have these, I just thought that a tank this big needed one). Also, for size comparison there is a rhino, an ork, and a trukk made from a dark eldar raider. pictures are on the previous page. I attached them, which is why they didn't show up in your quote.
Also, I have another favorite conversion:
An ork dakka shop! fear the ODM (orkymatik dakka masheen), and the rivets (which I still need to finish). It is made out of a toner cartridge!

Indeed, I was going for comic effect implying that he must have some sort of magic powder to get those bloodstains out after each battle
Great work though, as I said.

Alright i'll offer up a sacrifice to the paint god.
This model was converted from the Skrag th Slaughterer Ogre figure back in the late 80s. I liked the figure so much I painted it normally and converted it. Mt conversion skills however were (and are) woeful.
Behold.....Skrag the Space Marine!! If I was to redo this one i'd use a jump pack and not make much a mess of it. Be gentle

Hi all,
This is my first conversion, intended to be a ratling. Basic guard with some green stuff like thing (mask and belt), cutted down original belt and some from the legs, scope is from a bolter.
I have no assembled IG to compare so I put a marine there (from the starter black reach, that's and a cadian troop box all I have yet).

I can't stand the Skorne heads so dremelled off the Nihilators mutilated mugs and placed DEldar Scourge heads on. Very simple: dremel off the heads using the cutting wheel, clean up the neck (especially those that had their chins resting on the bicep), cut off the Scourge neck socket. Pin the head on, smooth the join with green stuff. These are primed/basecoated using krylon rust primer which came out a bit thicker then expected but didn't obscure the fine detail on the head and body.

I got bored during a late-night conference call, I got bored and built a coven-themed Venom.
It still needs some GS work (and paint), but overall I like the result.

Those three are probably my best conversions.

A Dark Apostle for my Chaos Force. I'll probably use him as a champion or something.
Scratch Build Lucius the Eternal for my Chaos Force.
