That looks great. Very grimdark  the only thing I don't like are the feet... couldyou maybe stick a second layer of plasticard on the toes to give them some depth and presence?

This is something I've been working on for some time for a very WIP Imperial Guard army. Still not finished but it's close enough to being done that I'm happy to share it.
It's a counts as Leman Russ Vanquisher based on a 1/35 scale Tamiya Cromwell model. Didn't really take much to 40k it really, I just threw some chaos smoke launchers and Imperial symbols on it and scratch built the vanquisher battle cannon and lascannon from different sizes of plasticard tubes. I plan on adding a pintle mounted heavy stubber once I get one built.

Is it wrong that I like this model better than the official Abaddon model? I love the mask!
This is made of too much win; the giant dozer blade and extra armor panels are perfect! The giant dozer blade is made of styrene/plasticard I assume? How did you achieve the slope on the blade?

Nice! Very Mechwarrior-esque.
Amazing use of parts there! That skull head sculpt is awesome as well! I see some Tryanid and Daemon Prince parts there, but I don't recognize those hands. Are they Tyranid as well?
Finally got my hands on a Pleasuredemon by Ultraforge and promptly converted it for my Daemon Prince of Khorne for my Warriors of Chaos. I really wanted to represent the Chaos Armor and Collar of Khorne equipment on the model itself and used various bits to accomplish this. I added hair to the normally bald model with GS and I think it turned out pretty well. I do plan on adding some chains and a few Khorne icons, but otherwise she is finished. If only I was good enough at sculpting to change her expression into something less serene and more khornate.  I guess that will all come with the painting.

Wow, guys, this thread is always worth a visit! Great job!
@ cyborgakadjmoose: I really like how you subtly " GW-ified" that Ultraforge model! Although the balance in this thread will have to be tipped back in the direction of Khorne, of course
I am rather fond of this guy at the moment, my converted World Eaters Heldrake. I am calling it the "Hellrazor":
The conversion was inspired by a model done by Marshalfaust over on Warseer. More pictures in my World Eaters thread, in case anyone is interested

That is a great conversion! It ties it back to the old hell talon nicely and keeps a great "living machine" aesthetic without being too "raaar-I-is-dragon"

I'm going to add my most resent (the hard coat is still drying) builds.

I bashed these together for a Dark Hersey game we're playing. Unneeded for playing Dark Hersey but three of us said we needed minnies so I got on to it, the GM is going to go threw his stuff and will have a odd game of D&D that is grim and dark

I've only ever done one 'conversion' and I'm not even sure it could be called that.
Changed the sergeant from Dark Vengeance to look a bit different as I have two. Wrist is magnetized so I can swap between the PP and chainsword.

Love to get back to this thread.

Still in painting.

Thanks cyborgakadjmoose. Bought most of the pieces to him seperately (was never a fan of Abaddon's model tbh).
Your Daemon Prince looks awesome, the addition of chains and more khornate symbols are a must though, they'll make her more of a 'warrior queen' pulling her away from a more Slannesh feel.

Pleasure? Slaanesh? WITH KHORNE? Blashpemy, Khorne would never allow such a glorious abomination to be spawned!
In all respect though, that thing is freakin' awesome! I should get some of my conversions up here, but all my best ones are in the midst of being painted.

To be fair, as long as it spills blood he could probably care less. Take Valkia for instance... Slaanesh avidly tried to get at that, and Khorne still liked her most
