Hey, I may have missed it, but i'm looking for a "how to" on building a land raider ares conversion. Prefferably pic heavy!

Thanks!

First off, google Land Raider Ares to see what you'll need. Buy/trade components if you don't already have them, grab some plasticard, fiddle a pit, paint and you're done. If you want to go the supereasy route you can even use flamestorm cannons for the sponsons from the Land Raider Redeemer, just have to let your opponents know they count-as twinlinked Heavy Flamers.

For the front I suppose you can use the Vindicator front, or just plasticard it, not sure on the fit but you'll likely have to plasticard a bit anyway, which would be easier to do firsthand rather than trying to use someone else's pictures, unless they provide templates. But really, it can't be that hard.

Is there a specific part you're stuck on? Seems rather straightforward to me.

Edited for clarification

I am currently in the process of doing an Ares conversion myself. However I am using non-GW parts.

The video's going to help alot. Its not that I couldn't get the concept, just wasn't sure how the lower ramp was dealt with. Thanks!
