I would but they are unpainted and standard, so standard that I even have the 90's finecast bike squad upgrade torsos.

Those wheels look "Old Crow" ?

So does the little turret?

Ok, that’s just scary

Old Crow resin is super lovely. Although I do think that his best products were the nice slender realistic barrels.

One of my early conversion/kitbashes, way back in 7th edition. I wanted a big Mek on warbike for the mobile KFF, but thought a Mek should have a more unique ride. Eventually I decided to give him a monowheel.

Rest in peace, little green dude; and ride to waaaghhalla, shiny and chrome.

I love these threads. Conversions is my game.
@AceXT: That is a great conversion. Seems simple but they never are. Completely fits an Orc Boss!
@HankovitchThat big mek' on the giant monowheel is one of the best ideas/executions I've seen in a long time!
@Kidcuthulhu: Love the treadbike. Very nicely done.
@Zergsmasher: Love me some Ravenwing action. Thanks for sharing. Is that the old 40 pounds of lead Sammael?
@Flinty: There's a lot of work in those! Nicely done! Thanks for sharing. Good ideas.
As to bikes...you asked for it: (more in my gallery)

The quad had tiny little wheels, upscaled them to GW bike wheels. I don't recall where I got the actual quad from. Metal casting, early 90s.
The bikes are old Void bikes. Riders made from sentinel pilots, guard torsos and arms from chaos marauders and guardsmen.

The named character ... Mogul something ... Made from a marine scout bike and a Mirage 2000 canopy.

Thanks! Dark Angels are my primary army, but despite this fact apart from a couple of speeders/Talonmasters this is all the Ravenwing I have that are fully painted. As for Sammael, that is the resin "Finecast" version. I can't imagine trying to work with that model in metal.

Just loving this thread!

@Insaniak: You remain the master my friend. That Skimmer turned into the Silverhawks motif is absolutely unreal! (Okay, I know it really isn't, and thqt is one obscure 80's reference...but I repeat, that plasticard work is unreal!

@Zergsmasher: My group is really old...my friend di have that guy in lead. It was one of the first models my group ever pinned, and it burned out a bit the material was so hard. Sadly, the pinning wasn't enough (we were rookies with that) and it suffered a lot of damage. Beyond that, it had to be stored and transported in a seperate box lest it crush the rest of the army. On a trip to a gameday California (I said we were old) it launched itself from his carrying tray and landed with a thunk that drew eyes from three tables away. I suspect if it had landed on a foot an ambulance would have been needed. It disappeared in a move many years ago (I suspect my friend just got so tired of the doorstop he chucked it)

@ Chromedog: Nice to see some Alt models. Love the basing concept.

Does anyone have a shower gel javelin from yesteryear?

That would be impressive.

Not exactly... Rather than doing it as a bottle conversion, I did start sculpting one a while back, but haven't had the time to finish it.

Shower gel? No. Deodorant? Yes.


Well, I still have pictures, I think I got rid of them during a move. Although they might be in the bottom of a box somewhere.

Ironically, I don't ever think I used these models in actual game. They've been painted for years. Last time my DE took the table was during 7th.
