Unfortunately I was only able to get one decent picture before my camera died.
I didn't particularly like the death from above pose that the new Callidus has.
"Deadly Ballerina" is what I was thinking during the conversion. Still WIP but I'm happy with how she looks at the moment.
Mechanicus Ruststalker spike bit instead of the ridiculous hair.
Arms need to come off and some brass rod in the foot. (trimmed the rock off first)
It was a little fiddly but if I can manage it anybody can!

Cheers man.
I just shelved everything as I do from time to time. Had Uni stuff and then never went back to it.
Still wanting to finish my greater daemon but I'm still thinking about how to do the "legs"
Execution Force coming out really got my thought process running again, combined with the new Mechanicus kits.

I'll have a look at that. Was messing around with Gimp and thought about doing this.
Think this makes her a bit more sinister and certainly makes the idea of the Polymorphine altering her face more of reality in my mind.

I was just going to paint it the one colour but the point was raised on the Ammobunker that it could open up some room for freehand. Perhaps a Rorschach or insect like pattern.

Thanks for the comments guys, unfortunately the eyes didn't turn out as I want. One unfortunate slip with the knife and it was game over. Never fear though as I'm fairly happy with the outcome, even if it could have been better. It just means the idea is out there for somebody with the skill to pull it off! As you can see I added a gas mask to her face to break it up a bit. It looks a little bit space jokey esque now but I'm happy with it. As for what the other Assassins, the sprues themselves are great and I'm currently working on the Culexus. Not quite happy with him so I'm going to have a think and revisit him before posting. I bashed together some guys just as a bit of an exercise in fun. I need to add some guages/vials to them for them to be complete. I kind of imagine them to be an almost Mechanicus Custodes force. Perhaps operating on worlds like Vostroya etc. Nothing terribly impressive but I like the way they turned out. This is something I have had planned for a while. A multi armed Magos. I was orinally going to use the Forgeworld Mechanicum character with the wolf skull for this guy but went with this instead. As you can probably tell I've been enjoying the tentacle maker... Still very much a WIP as he needs some kind of backpack generator or other mechanical gubbinz to fill the void. I'm happy with the direction in which he's progressing. Not got much background figured out. I wanted him to look pretty alien and the reasoning being that he is emulating a certain extinct species. I'm swithering on whether or not to make him simply a Heretek or full blown traitor. I do want to add some large mutants alongside him. I'm definitely thinking Magos Biologis though. He still needs more tentacles though. Thoughts or feedback much appreciate. Background ideas also most welcome!

That magos is amazing. Are the tentacles hand sculpted or some kind of shaped roller device?
