Hello,

Is anyone aware of a 'Set Back' turret conversion kit, I have seen plenty of conversion tutorials but never a completed kit.

I don't think I'd be too handy hacking to pieces a perfectly good kit so would prefer to avoid it if possible.

Thanks

I've heard some say that Blood and Skulls' kit has it pushed back, but not by that much I don't think.

As to the conversion, it's not as hard as you'd think, it's just a case of making sure your cuts are straight so it joins up smoothly.

There might be one in the pipeline, though.

Yep, Blood and Skulls Industries on eBay does a kit --- it places the turret more center than fully set back --- replaces the normal turret location with a hatch/driver position.

Indeed, Blood and Skulls is the one I'm aware of. I'm a fan of the conversion; makes me want to get around to doing that homebrew entry...

Thanks for the pointers!

I had a look at the Blood and Skulls piece and it looks great, perfect view ports at the rear of the troop compartment, looks a lot nicer than those las guns.

I think once I've gotten better at painting and modelling I'll try doing it myself without the need for a kit.
