Hey ya. Been scrolling through this thread for a few days now and I am really loving this stuff.

Here aware a few of the things I have been doing over the last few weeks. I'm just getting back into 40k after a lengthy absence. There is no green stuff in sight as I really cannot do it.



This is a wolf lord with termie armour, frost blade and storm shield. I don't like the way the termies look so static do I tried to give him some movement.



The idea behind this one was a lone wolf with the mark of the wulfen, hence the ragged mix of armour look.

Nice work on posing these, especially the first one. I think all models should have dynamic poses, lol
But you might want to go over these again and clean up the mold lines

Oh and welcome to dakka!

LOOK!! a shameless self-promotion! (gasp!)

You don't need greenstuff really, just patience. I like the pose of the lord on the rock. Looks as if he's knocking away a hit with his shield as he stabs with his sword.

I didn't like the silly, tiny Chicken Daemon that is Fateweaver, so I made my own (much more badass) model. It's my prized conversion, but working on another right now:

My most recent conversion is probably this.


It's a Chaos Sorcerer in Terminator Armour, with force stave, twin bolter and mark of Tzeentch. More pictures can be found on this post from my blog (and on Facebook).

Right, I have finally finished looking through all the posts on here, it's only taken most of the week...
There is so many cool ideas and brilliant executions. Nice one everyone.
Sadly, as I haven't been collecting minitures for very long I don't have much in the way of a large bitz pile for a major conversion.
But I feel I should give something back so here is one of my GS that has had some repair work performed on him by The Mad Scientist.

I bet you can see what I did with him..., and ignore his friend there's nowt converted about him.

The whole story about how he, and the army that he belongs to, came about can be found (if you're interested) in my P&M blog here

II saw this same model or another, similar one at a local tournament in my area at the start of the year, Coastal Assault.

I loved it then and I love it now.

Great job!

PM me if you want me to draw anything related to Warhmmer 40k. I will put it in my gallery for all to see.

Throwing mine in. This Techmarine incorporates som Necron parts, and was a conversion born out of necessity. GW actually packed in two of the same sprue, leaving me without the flamer arm and the backpack. I also wound up with two of the same servo arms. The extra bits allowed the mech arms to fit quite nicely, and the little claws on the sides basically cover up the lack of symmetry in the servo arms. The claw, whichs plays as a Thunder Hammer, came from the Iron Warriors Warsmith, and the head was an Iron Warriors bit. It was not easy to shave out the resin head and shave down the pewter head...
