Considering how rarely I do extensive conversions, I haven't posted in this thread in a long time. I finally have something to contribute with my counts-as Iron Hand Straken, Colonel Vadim: And a shot from before he had paint on him:
I also converted a Dark Apostle for my Iron Warriors: Detail of his book:

That is awesome. I have the mini you based that on, and its one of my favorite fantasy minis. Might have to see if I can get ahold of a recast and do something similar to what you did there. A real one is just too expensive (for me) to cut up.
tough luck that model is a games day model. so no recast
It's not. It's based on the mounted Archaon. The on foot one looked like this. Note the different cloak.
Also the foot Archaon can be found on Ebay now and then recast from Russia or China.
I know the model all too well, its one of the favorites in my collection.
EDIT: I also thought it was based on the "on foot" mini.

Whats my game?
Warmachine (Cygnar)
10/15mm mecha
Song of Blades & Heroes
Blackwater Gulch
X wing
Open to other games too
This seems to be my most popular converted model, judging from the number of views.
It's only a bit of fun mind...
And excuse the dodgy eye and teeth, they will get touched up eventually.

How do I sort this out? AFAIK I did everything correct.
I'm not entirely sure what you did wrong, but what I do (and works as above) is when you are viewing your pic in the gallery, there's all the link things down on the right hand side.
I use the link below "forums", just copy and paste the whole link form there as is.
However I found, with trial and error, that you must select the image size (just above the links) where it says Recomended sizes, AND then copy the link.
And doc1234, that's the sort of reaction I like. The short explaination is: blame a mad scientist.

They look great Brother SRM! I love the counts-as Straken!
Nah, Slaaneshi jump lord, armed with a Lightning Claw and either a Power Fist (mutated arm) or the Burning Brand (Doom Siren bits).
Also just 'finished' my Tzeentch Sorcerer/Lord, first time magnetising was fun. Getting the mace to fit the arm from Terminator Lord Zhufor was horrible though.

Omega red inspired?
It's not the size of the blade, it's how you use it.

Wow! Two days of looking and I finally made it to the last page. Guess it's time to get out my camera so I can make this thread a little longer!
Lots of great stuff guys. Fantastic amounts of talent and creativity!
Laugh, and the worlds laugh with you. Cry, and someone cuts off your head for the glory of Khorne!
For christmas I got a ally detatchment worth of dark eldar (the codex, a venom, a box of kabalites, and a razorwing), I just needed a HQ, so I made a Archon from a side rideing wych that came with the venom , some kabalite bits, a dire avenger exarch banner, and a storm guardian hair bit.
