Just finished this one. Questions, comments, suggestions all welcome.

**Demigod**

Looks great....very unique.

**Eldarain**

Excellent kitbash. Did the parts match up well or was there a lot of modification required?

Really nicely painted too, the blue in particular is really well executed.

**Chootum**

I love how you incorporated the Thousand Sons Egyptian theme into the Maulerfiend. Excellent NMM too.

Truly excellent stuff. Good Job!

The head and neck required a few pins/paperclips to firm up the anchor points and there was some miliput used to smooth the transition of one part to another on the neck. The tail goes on like it was meant to all along.

I would say it was my first time trying NMM but considering I stripped this 4 times to start over again, it was really my 5th attempt.

Looks great/expensive for a conversion. Those are both pricey models

**MWHistorian**

Almost makes me want a Thousand Sons army.

Almost.

**AliceK**

Wow, just WOW!

**Steel-lynx20**

Can only agree! Nice work!

**Shredsmore**

Wow, that is really awesome.

**cygnnus**

Freakin' lovely model! Very, very nice work! Love how you combined kits to bring the Egyptian theme into the Maulerfiend. Truely a great work! And the paint job does the conversion absolute justice.

Valete,

Thats a lovely conversion and the painting is just jaw dropping.

**Laruastrum**

Brilliant. i would never have thought of that. I can so totally see that amongst a legion of rubric marines.

**Fayric**

Looks great!
I actually made a forgefiend by taking the necrosphinx body and adding the shooty fiend arms. But this looks alot better, because of your superior skills.

**Chaos Legionnaire**

Amazing work on every level. Very well done.

**kestral**

Great use of bits!

**40KNobz11**

Very cool!

**Sparkadia**

So boss. Love it.

**Pedro Kantor**

Looks great. Very well done.

**Gogsnik**

Wow, that's fantastic and I really like the way you've done the exhaust stacks, very effective.

**Cuchulain**

This makes me happy.

**lav25gunner**

Beautiful paint job on a seamless conversion. Good job.

**Hotrod**

Such a fantastic conversion, you make it look as though the Maulerfiend was meant to be built that way. I love it!

**Moltar**

That rules. Best Maulerfiend I've seen.

**Darth Bob**

Very sinister looking. I like that it has a nice balance between Chaos and Egyptian styles without either overpowering the other.

**Astroman**

Another excellent Chaos Kit-bash. Really nicely done. The posing and bits you chose make it look very dynamic. Great stuff.
