Hi, I've been playing WH40k a while now, and decided i want to have a steampunk army, my favourite army to play would be Chaos Space marines, but i've had enough of the way they look now and i want to change them to steampunk any tips or ideas, just for bits of inspiration would be greatly appreciated!

I'm not the best at conversions, so additions to armour or minor conversions would be more suited to my skill level than vast changes in the models!

thanks!!

GEARS!

You can find a small gears at hobby lobby (if ya'll have them on that side of the pond). They sell them as jewelry trinkets.

I think painting them with rust would definitely work. It would up the steam punk level, while also giving off a defiled/evil/chaos vibe.

Although, I'd try not to over do it, since it might end up looking like a Nurgle Army.
