I bought the Burning of Prospero and realized afterwords they don't have any combi weapons. I am trying to make a conversion combi plasma wanted to get thoughts on if it looks right.[img]

I might cut into the body of the bolter a bit to make it look more like a unified gun. While it might look fine as-is from tabletop distance, up close it’s a little to obviously a pistol glued on top of a bolter.

I reckon once its painted and on the model it'll look fine.

I'd be inclined to move the plasma bit a little further forward so that it doesn't look like it vents onto the top of the bolter, but otherwise it looks fine.

A little bit of righteous anger now and then is good, actually. Don't trust a person who never gets angry.

Why not cut off some of the back end then glue it under the bolter barrel like a grenade launcher? That's kinda how the combiplasma looks IIRC.

Ended up moving the plasma a bit forward, I was basing some of it off a conversion I had seen for a different model of bolter, I filed it down a bit more to help it blend in and look more like one unit. I don't have the picture on me at the moment will post it when I am able to. Thank you all for your input it help in the process.
