Hey Guys,

Well as you might be able to tell by the title, what jokaero weaponsmith counts-as are there? Well I have tried to do some hunting around, and even doing searches for Planet of the Apes models, but have not found anything that answers this question. These little monkeys are pretty darn expensive IMO for just one of them (thanks for nothing GW). I need to get quite a few of these guys so getting them in somewhat of bulk would be great. I need them to have WYSIWYG weapons and armor. being that they are apes and have digital weapons, not a problem at all.

If you could help me out by posting some links or info on where I could find counts-as that would be great!

I just made my own. I don't like space monkeys.

Spoiler:

That looks a little scary quite frankly. What was the base model? How/what did you add onto it? and how much did it cost for you to make one of these?

Reaper min'is Ape X


Orangutango


Raogru, Charau-Ka Shaman



just a couple of ideas.

I used a vampire counts banshee, the arm with the rifle from an Imperial engineer and added random bits to it to make it look insane.

Wow! I really like that Raogru, Charau-Ka Shaman! Its cheap, almost the same size, and it looks great! Thanks!

I use a Telepathic slug for mine. Its a reaper model. A really cool one too. Ill try get a picture of it.





Doesnt need to be a monkey. Unless you want it to be a monkey.

I've been working on a couple of counts-as monkeys done as Ad Mech guys, all sorts of techno-gothic gubbins and huge guns.

I used this chap as an attached Techpriest who tinkers with the retinue's weapons (makes more sense than a savant Orangutan)
