Conversions

Well here it is in all its orky glory, Da DeffKnight! This guy is part of a sweet “counts as” Grey Knight Orkquisition army that my buddy Master Shake is converting and painting up. Master Shake chose to paint up da DeffKnight in a triad of Red’s, (shaded like my blue Orks) over a basecoat […]

The Orkuisition is back!  “Counts as” is the new black, and this army is hot with it’s conversions innovative theme. Mastershake has been a ball of fire lately converting and painting up his Deff Kult army like a mad man to get ready for the Nova Open. Recently he finished up his DeffKnight conversion, and now all […]

Check out this sweet Diorama base my buddy Josh made for his Tzeentch Daemon prince. It’s pretty much all scratch built with a ton a green stuff. The premise for the scene is the Tzeentchy Daemon Prince shredded open an Ork Trukk, and after growing bored toying with the Nob, has banished him to kicking and screaming […]

Welcome back to more Orkuisition madness! Well Master Shake is really putting his all into this Converted Grey Knight Army, and I hope you are enjoying watching it develop as much as I am. Check out this Work In Progress shot of his “Deff Knight” counts as conversion.  Right now he feverishly working on the […]

So I need to get my creative juices flowing and maybe you can help.  I’ve had these converted Terminators for a few years now, and just got around to augmenting them with newer bits and such for my Iron Hands Army. Originally I wanted them to be all sweet Pre-Heresy style, but eventually I just settled on […]

Madness? This is the Orkuisition. Check out this Orky monstrosity inspired by my Looted Imperial Guard. My buddy Master Shake is making a Grey Knights / Inquisition themed army, and this is his first conversion; the Grot Raider Crusader (counts as, of course). As you can see many, many Trukks and Battlewagons died to fuel this conversion (no Bothan’s however […]

Since  all the new Space Marine books came out with rules for Razorbacks armed with Twin Linked Assault Cannon turrets, there has been quite a high demand for that turret loadout. Unfortunately the only way to actually get one is the Land Raider Crusader / Redeemer kit for $66, a price which has made the turret go for […]

Well the due date came and went, and when the dust settled we got in some really awesome entries! We sold a TON of Dreadknights over on the Spikey Bits store for this contest, it is really cool to see a bunch all converted up. So a big thanks  to everyone who took the time […]

TIME FOR ADEPTICON 2011!!!! That’s right its spring again and in the 40k universe that only means one thing (besides new releases), it’s tournament time! Besides being the most awesomest tournament in the country to date, Adepticon is a chance to hang out make new friends, and catch up with your old ones. So many […]

Waaaaaaaaaaagh as been declared at Spikey Bits for the new Grey Knight release.  To kick it all off we cranked up the awesome to 11 with the DreadKnight Mega Build Contest! Entering is easy- all you have to do is pre-order a Dreadknight from Spikey Bits Mail Order, and convert it into a Non-Astartes version […]

This is the first of many variants for the Stormraven Gunship I could come up with.  It is loosely based of off the Terminus Ultra Land Raider, except it’s got wings!  The premise behind the vehicle is basic search and destroy operations, where terrain/ conditions are not conductive to deployment of troops or heavy tanks.  […]

Recently a buddy of mine here at the shop named Beef (hold the cheddar) let me in on a little conversion secret- Thunder Wolves for $1.50 each. Of course this was of interest to me, so I wanted to see these models for myself.  When he brought them by I blown away, this wolf was […]

Over the past few years I’ve been privileged to meet a lot of great hobbyists out there. One such fellow is Dan Johnson. Dan produces amazingly realistic Marine conversion that are really just phenomenal. In addition to cranking out great conversions, he has been busy winning awards at both BolsCon (WarGamesCon) and Baltimore Games Day […]

There is a regular here at FTW Games named Blaine Toups, aka Dingareth on the internets. He’s a nice enough fellow, I mean I’ve driven with him to several tournaments lately (BoLScon, and DaBoyz), so I mean I got no beef with him or anything. Blaine however keeps digging at me about how his Stormraven […]

I wanted to share a WIP Dark Eldar Scourge conversion with you by FTW Games regular Mike DeBolt. Some of you may rememeber Mike from the Games Workshop store at Stony Point before it closed. Mike has been hard at work lately converting up some Scourges. I wanted to get a pic of the models […]

Hey guys. This was send in to me by Stephan from his blog, Alles, nur keine1.  He made a pretty sweet Wolf Priest conversion using the pewter head and crozius from the old model, and the current Wolf Guard plastics.  He also added a little more fur to cover the gash that was left from […]

Here’s a little article about updating terrain pieces you may have already, with some of the plastic kits Games Workshop has put out over the last few years. By combining old buildings and ruins with the new kits, you can make a fluid looking theme out of two different designs of terrain. I originally made […]

Recently I went a little crazy with some more Imperial Guard Conversions. I was inspired by the new Wargames Factory Shock Troopers to make some more Renegades / Greatcoats. My buddy Mike made this great renegade Stormtrooper drop trooper  out of the normal Forgeworld renegade commander, some M.A.S. Wings, and a M.A.S. Base. If you […]
