Hey guys,

i quite like the original Dunecrawler design, but I always thought it could look a bit more like the spidertank it should be
So today i tried a bit of conversion work and I must say that the Kit is relativly easy to work with.

So after seeing a similiar conversion on a blog ( which I must say I couldnt find again, shame on me ) i tried to move the 'rear' of the Tank up,
to put in a more Spider like Position.
This is what i came up with:





As you see I moved the point where body and legs join to let the Body sit more freely on the Spiderlegs.







So this is the outcome of the conversionwork and I am quite happy with it.
The only problem is that if you want to use the Gunner figure on top, you have to rearange his hands to give the stubber the desired angle:



I still have to do the greenstuff part but i think one can see were it goes from here.
What do you think?

Cheers

I like it. I don't suppose you have a "before" pic so we can see the difference?

I think you can clearly see the diffrence
