Conversions

My buddy Beef (hold the cheddar) stopped by the other day with a new WIP, a Ravenguard Dakka Dreadnought. He converted this puppy up good, with a bunch of solid true scale aspects, heck you can’t even tell those are sentinel legs till you see it from behind. The model kinda almost reminds me of […]

A little while ago I did a tutorial on my Pre-Heresy Iron Fists Army, but I left one model out- my Librarian. Today we’re going to take a look how I made him, and how you can make your own (as there is no model for the Power Armor Librarian right now- sad pandas) Back in the […]

The other day I was cutting up some bits, and a sweet conversion idea hit me outta the blue. Come see the custode conversion that appeared out of thin air.

Here is another custom FRAG! conversion from YepImadork. This guy’s definitely got some character, eh?  I for one have no idea how he opens doors, unless he just saws them in half, lol.  Jump below the fold for all the details. So for those of you not familiar with it there is an old board game out […]

Well Jkin has been at it again. He’s taking a small break from his Thousand Sons army and working on something new. Now instead of making some Astartes look noble,  he’s afflicting a their vehicles with Nurgle’s Rot. I’m sold, because boy does it look good so far! He’s gone to town on this thing, […]

Well my Iron Hands Terminators got some paint on them recently and are looking pretty good! I can’t wait to get these guys on the tabletop! I started with my Pre-Heresy styled models and converted them up a little after I wrote that article,  before adding paint. Remember me? I has paint now! The heads I added were […]

Today I have a little conversionary? treat (if that’s a word, lol) for you. It’s an oldie but a goodie, which I have a sweet spot for. Check out this converted and painted Deathwatch Squad, by Beef (hold the cheddar). For me there was always something cool about the Deathwatch guys. When their bits came out […]

So I cornered Jkin the other day, to get pics of his Pre-Heresy styled Ahriman for his Scarab Occult army, and boy does it rock. Check out this bad boy below! To kick off this project he started with a just normal Grey Knight Terminator (for statue he’s still “in power armor”), and just went […]

Way back in the day before Pre-Heresy was “cool”, I attempted an ambitious project: a Pre-Heresy Iron Fists Army. Unfortunately for me, my painting skills weren’t quite up to the task and I couldn’t quite pull off painting yellow then. But I certainly had fun converting the army, and that’s all that counts. Eventually I went back and started painting them green for […]

Welcome to another great work in progress post on Jkin’s Pre-Heresy Style Thousand Sons. He’s really putting a lot of work into these guys, and it definitely shows. It’s nice every once in awhile to see a hobbyist doing something for the love of the hobby, rather than what plays well- or is considered the […]

There is a neat little community out there that came up with a true skirmish version of 40k. It’s called “Death Squads” and it’s pretty cool.You can find out more over on their site. You have to register to get to the downloads section, but once you do all the resources are then available. There […]

For those of you not familiar with it there is an old board game out there, that was just re done in fact, that emulates a first person shooter. It pretty much combines the play of 40k with the ridiculousness of Duke Nukem, and makes for a lot of fun. The game is called FRAG! and it’s a AWESOME. […]

A few years ago I wanted to convert up an Ironclad model before it was released. I had a few ideas but after seeing some of the stuff my buddy Plunkett was doing with his stuff, I decided to let him have a go at it. Then I could just detail it out the rest […]

Check out these gorgeous WIP shots of Jkin’s Pre-Heresy Thousand Sons. It’s pretty amazing what can be done now with all the plastic kits out there! I think his conversions really bring home the look and Egyptian feel to the figures that the books convey. He really went the extra mile incorporating bits from the […]

The first Mega Deff Kopta was built for Warboss Ribkracker by Big Mek Gigawright. Besides showing an affinity for both warbikes and flyers, Gigawright spent hours and hours tinkering for new ways to get da boyz into the battle the fastest.After battling Air Assault Imperial Guard (da ones who jump out da jet fightas) in the Tendias Forgeworld, Gigawright had […]

Check out this work in progress Chaos Thousand Sons Rhino by Jkin. If you missed his sweet Daemon Prince conversion recently do yourself a favor and check it out! Back to his new work, this puppy has got it all! This M41 Chaos Rhino comes standard with Spikey Bits, chains of doom, and a slight […]

Welcome back! Today I have a little lead into the Nova Open, happening this weekend, and a feature on one of the lists I am considering running in the Invitational. Today I’ll be playing in the Nova Open Invitational, and I’m thinking about playing Master Shakes’ Orkquisition Grey Knights.  I’ve been featuring a few of his conversions […]

So here is the finished product from last week, a Daemon Prince of Tzeentch Diorama.  My buddy Jkin spent the good part of a few weeks converting up both the base, and the model itself.They are pretty much all scratch built with a ton a green stuff.  I really dig the drippy blood effect, and […]
