				<title>Space Marine to Red Alert Tesla Trooper conversion help</title>
				<description><![CDATA[ As the title suggests, I need help with finding a suitable model to convert into a Tesla Trooper from Red Alert 2. Preferably, I'd like to have someone with an outstretched arm that I could put a powerfist on as the base to the Tesla gauntlet. I was thinking about using Scout Marines with a Power Armored body to start get the fabric part, then greenstuff a big dome onto the body for the head, guitar strings for the power cables, etc.<br /> <br /> Here's some references if you don't know what a Tesla Trooper looks like, or if you need a refresher.<br /> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/elley/2638462511/" target="_new" rel="nofollow">A nice big detailed one that someone made</a><br /> <a href="http://i.neoseeker.com/ca/command_conquer_red_alert_2_conceptart_AselW.jpg" target="_new" rel="nofollow">Some concept art</a><br /> <a href="http://www.cncseries.com/images/content/redalert2/indexteslatrooper.jpg" target="_new" rel="nofollow">The ingame icon</a><br /> <a href="http://galeri.uludagsozluk.com/57/tesla-trooper_30315.jpg" target="_new" rel="nofollow">The Red Alert 3 Tesla Trooper, which I could use as a Dreadnought</a><br /> <br /> On the board, I'm probably going to use them as counts-as meltagun, since Tesla Troopers are short range anti tank troops.<br /> <br /> If you have any other ideas on what model to start with, by all means please help out by dropping a link or <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(634);'>PM</span> or something.]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[ I had a quick ponder, then compared actual models, I'd say the Tau XV25 stealth suit's head/helmet thing is quite close in size and shape. Could trim the bit that goes over the head and round it off with greenstuff. I compared it to a scout torso, rather than powerarmor, and they'd fit well. Could tinker with the vision optics, possibly even fill the hole with <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(47);'>GS</span> and just make a narrow vision slit. Depends how close you want to be in shape, the more accurate option would be as you say just <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(47);'>GS</span> the head.<br /> <br /> The marine assault squad box has a outstretched (pointing) powerfist arm, should be easy enough to readjust the finger so it's not pointing. Then could have a scout (or even <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(69);'>IG</span>) arm opposite, seeing as the concept art only has one armored arm.<br /> <br /> Would be a neat conversion, be sure to show it off once it's done.<br /> <br /> Edit: Forgot to add the XV25 picture..<br /> <br /> <img src="http://www.games-workshop.com/MEDIA_CustomProductCatalog/m490189_99120113008_TauXV25TeamMain_873x627.jpg" border="0" />]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[ Oh man, I forgot about the Assault Marine powerfist. I'll ask around at my <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(38);'>FLGS</span> and see if anyone has a spare.<br /> <br /> I'll have to see the XV25 spruce though.]]></description>
