http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/8.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net DI boxes arrived yesterday, and being a person who hates using stock models, I'm not going to be using any of them as-is

I've seen lots of people bemoaning the lack of variety in the monopose/snapfit models so, because I have two boxes, I thought I'd set myself a challenge: Kitbash the Death Guard using only bits available in the box itself



First up is the Lord of Contagion - not much can be done with him, to be honest. the helmet has some mobility if you snip the peg off and a minor axe repose was possible with a lot of cutting



Almost exactly as he's supposed to be, but with the Plague Champion's backpack (minus the fly). I was going to do something more drastic and give him the powerfist until I saw the next guy..



Easily the most involved conversion, ising marts from at least 4 different models (Fist, Body/pack, Knife arm, Barf) - once I saw the big armoured belly it was obvious he'd be the best model to give the Powerfist to.



Nobody likes the babyface Malignant Plaguecaster, so I thought the best thing to do would be to steal his staff and use it on the other bareheaded model, the Plague Champion. there's a lack of left-handed weapons which is why he has a bolter instead of bolt pistol.



Last one, so far. Bolter with the ammo belt scraped off and the barrel replaced by a Poxwalker weapon makes a decent enough flamer. helmet's a bit of a botch job, needs GS but if you only have the starter and want a second special weapon, at least it's possible

This was more of a proof of concept rather than anything else, I can't see most of these guys making it into my final army in their current form, but hopefully it sparks some ideas in people]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/729780/9444858.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/729780/9444858.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/729780/9445545.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/729780/9445545.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/729780/9445927.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/729780/9445927.page GMT
