More of a kit bash than a conversion, but liking how my Night Lord Warp Talons / Raptors turned out.

- Warp Talon bottoms
- CSM mids
- Night Lord conversion kit for helm and shoulders
- Possessed Wings
- Magnetized arms to run them as Warp Talons or Raptors




So. Many. Bat Wings.

I think my fav so far is my Corsair Prince/Autarch, Lord Cinderan. He's been about a few years now, dying mainly! Prob accounts for the peg leg and eyepatch. He's made from the bit kit with the sensor upgrade, DA exarch, swooping hawks wings, old sprue fusion gun, laser lance and a Bretonnian hunting eagle I think? Some wee greenstuffing here and there

Travellin' through space is boring. Well, boring unless da hulk yer on is full of dem gene-sneakers, or a base fer da chaos lads wiv da spikes, or already has Boyz on it. Or if humie lootas come callin', that's always good fer a bit a sport. Or unless yer have a mutiny or two to pass da time, or unless strange fings start happenin', which dey usually do when yer out in da warp. One time we had some bloody great ugly fing come straight out of Weird Lugwort's 'ed! It butchered half da lads, that was pretty entertainin'. Come ter fink of it, space is a pretty good larf. And that's before yer find yerself a nice world ta crush!~Bigmaw

Thanks for the heads up. Those look great! Might be a bit trickier to magnetize, but do like the variety.

Oh god! his parrot and peg leg are awesome! hilarious but awesome! is this some form of extreme eldar humour? As we know how sensitive they are he seems like he's taken a practical joke wayyyy overboard I love it

But the paint job and modelling is beautiful.

Just to clarify from someone who saw the thread- that's a scratch-sculpt. Just about the only thing on there that was bought, was the head.

absolutely love those deffcoptas! love the smoke trails, thats something ive been desperate to try on storm boys, but this is a great use i love the grating you used on the front of the yellow copta, i have some of that but always felt it too large scale to work, but youve pulled it off really well

also really enjoy the blue skinned orks

Not my best but one I'm having lots of fun imagining how it comes out so it is my favourite for a long time. It's a unit of 54mm imperial guard for Inquisitor done in the Rogue Trader style. I have much nostalgia for Rogue Trader and like Inquisitor, so bring the two together. They'll look more the part when I make their lasguns, which will be the older style Ryza pattern, just going to pick up some plastic rod and tube this weekend.





I'm working on other imperial guard characters, here's a DKoK I posted the other week and now needs basing, but it got me wanting to do more, as above.
