I had until recently dismissed all things Skylanders as juevenile junk. Imagine my surprise when one struck me first as 'kinda cool' then hitting me again as fitting both the backstory and theme of my Tomb Kings Legion of tech-savvy SMs? Espeicially the Big RED Crystals in its hands & shoulders! As luck has it i also got a really good deal on Rustoleum Textured finishes to paint with



Besides the addition of Imperial & Tomb Kings iconography and purity seals, how much weponry should i add vs. having it's crystals represent the weapons?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/590315/6734086.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/590315/6734086.page GMT
To spare everyone else.


I'm not entirely sure how you got "Dreadnought" and/or "Necron" from that, but with a certain amount of work it could fit depending on how the rest of your army looks.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/590315/6734749.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/590315/6734749.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/590315/6735636.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/590315/6735636.page GMT SM from that. Maybe Chaos.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/590315/6737109.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/590315/6737109.page GMT
I guess I don't harbour the vision you have for this conversion but I can't see how you are going to pull this (convincingly) into the 40K universe.

This all said... I'm eager to see your results, so good luck! ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/590315/6737331.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/590315/6737331.page GMT

I was originally just going to take the torso apart, paint & reassemble. Now i'm thinking of bits to add, weapons and icons, then painting. I have a nice Metallic Black Rustoleum and i was thinking i'd mix a Red Ink wash with some gold paint in it for a Liquid Metal that fits my SM Legion's color sheme.

My Legion and the sector they call home, is technically still a 'Dark Age of Technology' because the are a human population that understands science & tech. The Legion's Techmarings & Scribes/Librarians have been reverse-engineering Eldar and Necron tech, for ages, as they consider ALL tech the Emperor's gift to them.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/590315/6740394.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/590315/6740394.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/590315/6740556.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/590315/6740556.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/590315/6740700.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/590315/6740700.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/590315/6740735.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/590315/6740735.page GMT
Yeah, I don't see it. Don't want to rain on your parade but that just looks too over the top ridiculous to fit with anything 40k. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/590315/6741112.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/590315/6741112.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/590315/6741834.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/590315/6741834.page GMT
Won't have much time around work schedule, but i'll try to figure out how to use my digital camera w/o my comp, or use my housemates to get it set up.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/590315/6767209.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/590315/6767209.page GMT
