So I was looking at a couple of potential conversion, and wanted to know if these would be a good idea. Basically I just want to know if you can see it.

The first is one that I have been thinking on for a while. Warboss in mega armor made out of a Dreadnaught. I have one of the old starter ones, and like the idea that a warboss could be injured and a mad doc would use a wrecked Dreadnaught to make a new body for him.

The 2nd was one that I ran across while researching looted wagons. Someone was talking about using a Rhino as a Trukk. As I do not have a Trukk, and I just so happen to have a Rhino laying around that will never get used, I thought this would be amazing. However, I think that it may be to small for a trukk. Then again I have never seen one in person. So maybe I am wrong.

What do you guys think? Are these way too far fetched?

First of all, a warboss made out of a dreadnaught sounds fantastic. Make sure to give him some proppa power klaws to go with it. Kitbashing one with a meganob kit could look amazing.

As for the size, iirc, rhinos are wider than trukks, but trukks are indeed longer. It's not by much, though, so I doubt any opponent who isn't a super stickler would be fine with it, granted the coversion was done well enough. Maybe rip off the top to show all those boyz cramped inside.

A warboss with Dread armor would be cool, I would like to see it, and a Truk is not that big so a Rhino without the top would work. Maybe with some wheels on the front to make it half track or somehow orky.
