Hey Dakka, Im looking for an alternative model for the Gk weaponsmith. I really don't like bear heads and exposed skin. I've always liked the more sleek tactical look. The weaponsmith is going in a squad of Dreamforge Eisenkern Stomtroops. Any ideas for some crazy engineer looking models or something? Something tactical and sleek but also weaponsmith looking. Any Ideas?

an armored orangutan would be a pretty tall order...

**thekyle1231**

Well the orangutan was something I was looking to avoid...

The Jokearo is certainly ridiculous, I don't blame you.

I've only seen a couple stand in's that were any good and both were heavily converted with greenstuff and/or plasticard.

Any of these would work quite well.

Perhaps you should just make an extra Eisenkern model, laden with weaponry and weapon accessories? To represent the variety of guns the Jokaero have, and the upgrades they give?

**Liquid Squid**

I think just a guardsman with slightly heavier flak armor, goggles over his helmet, and some tentacles from the warpsmith might be weaponsmithy enough.

Maybe a model from infinity with a fancy looking gun.
Like one of those for example:

Or these from Pulp city: A.R.C.

What about a techpriest?
Pretty underrated model and it could work quite well.

**thekyle1231**

the mongoose publishing minis are pretty cool, I am surprised theres such a wide range of money models.

As for a conversion ill have to look in my bitz and see what I can think of.

ARC howler isn't bad either.

A techpriest could work well, forgot about that model.

Ill have to mull it over, If I convert something ill be sure to post it up. Thanks guys
