Conversion Corner

Checkout this version of Abaddon, all converted up to resemble the classic figure.I found this guy surfing the webs the other day, and thought I would share!  He’s over at Chaos Brushes, another great blog all about the hobby we all love. It looks like he’s mostly made from the Plastic Chaos Terminator kit, and […]

This sweet conversion popped up over on Bolter and Chainsword recently.Rottimus posted an A-10 Warthog “counts as” Stormraven, and it’s pretty cool looking. He has some WIP shots, and his final product posted up on there all in the same convenient thread (see below). I think his conversion stays true to the design elements of […]

Beef made a rare appearance the other day around the store, and brought some projects with him.One of which was a Terminator Cyclone Launcher WIP (Work In Progress), with extra goodies. The missiles he used are from the Armorcast line of pewter upgrades, and at around $5 for 4 they are priced pretty good IMHO. […]

Checkout this pretty cool Scratch Built Tau Manta Super Heavy Flyer by Graven Games.From Graven Games’ Site;We’ve decided to kick off the projects section of Graven Games with a bang. Not many people are crazy enough to attempt scratchbuilding a model as huge as a Tau Manta for Warhammer 40k Apocalypse …but we definitely are!  Follow our journey […]

Check out this amazing Master of the Forge! I got an email the other day with a link to this article, and was really taken aback. Being a follower of the Cult of the Machine myself, see my Custom Iron Angels Chapter here, I really really love this model. This come to us from Graven […]

Check out this crazy sweet dreadnought conversion from Black Matt’s Black Legion blog. I saw this the other day and was really impressed with it. Whenever I see a figure (vehicle or infantry) with all sorts of weapons strapped to it, I think of an old short story from back in the day that featured such warriors. […]

Checkout a sneak peak of my Stormtalon walker conversion over on Facebook.I’m working on a complete how to article, and hope to have the whole thing posted up sometime next week. Best part about this model is well, it’s the same size as the Stormtalon, so you can use it as the actual model itself […]

It’s been a week since the new flyers released, and today I have for you a closer look at Jkin’s Stormtalon Attack Helicopter conversion.Its still a work in progress, but I figured I’d show it off to help inspire mad converters out there, as to the potential of this kit! Be sure to checkout the original post here. http://blog.spikeybits.com/2012/06/stormtalon-helicopter-work-in-progress.html – Have […]

This is just a quick shot of my Work in Progress (WIP) Stormhound assault walker.Obviously, I made this conversion from a Stormtalon and a Defiler. What is an assault walker you ask? Well I don’t exactly know yet, to be honest, but I envision a baby titan that can fit in places tanks and big titans cant. […]

This is just a quick shot of Jkins Work in Progress (WIP) Stormtalon Conversion Helicopter. More on this bad boy soon when it’s finished. Ill be posting up my WIP on Facebook sometime tonight as well. But mine hangs out closer to the ground so to speak… 😀 more soon from Spikey Bits Central… Have a good […]

Well since Finecast came out almost one year ago, metals have almost all but disappeared.  Which has been quite devastating to some lines, most notable Tau.The problem is, well you can’t get Crisis Commanders, Broadsides, or even the long lost Shadowsun. So whats a budding Tau player supposed to do?  Beg, borrow, and steal some […]

That’s right, apparently Space Wolves are not the only ones who can take mounts! Horses however are at least a little more believable….I mean horses have been bread for years to do our work for us, and who knows how powerful they will become in the far future? But seriously though, Clydesdales are huge massive […]

Checkout this eerie autonomous Necron Canoptek Spyder Conversion.I got looking around the blog-o-sphere the other day for some inspiration on converting up a Spyder model, (since Games Workshop hasn’t re-released one yet) for an upcoming Necrontyr project. Eventually I ended up over at White Metal Games’ blog, clicking though all of his designs until I […]

Checkout this amazing Tower of Khorne conversion by Yepimadork.I’ve been getting all sorts of excited as of late with rumors of Chaos becoming more and more frequent. So I thought I’d share my Tower of Khorne that Yepimadork made, with you all today, as we grind closer to hopefully a new book for the worshipers […]

If you click on the Army of One label you’ll be able to scroll through some great looking figures, all at once. Today we take a look at an Imperial Guardsman on 4-Wheeler, that […]

Today I have more of Beast’s Adeptus Mechanicus Skitarii Army to showcase for you.Ad Mech always seems to have a special place in everyone’s hearts.  When you see conversions, they are either pretty much terrible, or off the wall amazing! I like these little guys, as they seem to be just the right mix of […]

One of the guys at the store just got this sweet Slaaneshi Exorcist back from White Metal Games, in anticipation of some Chaos fun hopefully in the near future.This thing is wicked cool, so I wanted to show it off some and maybe eventually make a datasheet for it. The Conversion(s) Well this monstrosity started […]
