Also, you got a decent way of making greatcoats and/or gasmaks for Guardsmen? Amusingly not for a Krieg army, but instead for a World War 2 Romanian theme.

>>4518208
Gas masks you say? I think I can help you there...

>>4518231
Yeah, that was what I was mainly thinking of using. Simply due to ease. But do Pig Iron heads fit on well enough?

>>4518208
Cadian officer + Baneblade gunner head makes a good greatcoat+Gasmask
If you want longer coats, I'd suggest using Necromunda Delaques and the Baneblade gunner head or simply sculpting the gasmasks

I'm pretty sure Rowboat Girlyman would look pretty much like Calgar...

>>4518240
Perhaps...

He's still awesome, though.

Also, that doesn't make mass production easy. Hmm. Maybe grab pig iron heads, cut off the stocks of the lasguns and make quasi-Steel Legion.

>>4518240

Coolies. Now I just need to buy a baneblade for every one of my 120 guardsmen.

Either that or mould one I guess >_>

>>4518294
i suggest you play a baneblade heavy list after that.

>>4518282
>>4518294
Moulding, it makes mass production easier.

Regarding rowboat, I really don't have much of a vision of him. Calgar with more roman all over him?

>>4518235
Perfect fit, actually. I've got a few packs myself and they're nicely scaled for Guardsmen.

Tell me moar of this Mortarion idea
Also cool mehreens bro

>>4518392
Nightbringer
Lord of change wings
2 pairs of Carrion wings
shoulderpads
bigass scythe with bells hanging from it
Posed to be swooping
Base of nurglings and/or corpses or marines/imps

>>4518416
>Base of...corpses
Vampire Counts corpse cart, maybe?

Can I make Ork heads work on Marine and Term. armor? Or are they too big?

>>4518440
That's a good idea!
I was going to just pose Imps and marines on the base, then spread nurglings over them
>>4518447
Marines, no way
Termies, with a bit of work
Termies actually make fairly OK 'eavy/mega armour if you enhance it a bit with orky parts

>>4518479
No chance at all with marine armor, then? Are they simply too big?

>>4518494
Pretty much yeah. You can give an Ork some marine pauldrons or kneepads or stuff but an ork head on a marine body just looks wrong.

>>4518524
Well dang.

Do GW Baneblade and Leman Russ share the same size of turret ring? if so, putting a baneblade turret on a leman russ is the easiest way to make a Vanquisher?

>>4518611
That sounds expensive and wasteful. Unless you have an extra baneblade turret just floating around...but why would you?

>>4518611
The Baneblade turret ring is around twice as big, wouldn't work.

Im looking to convert some Sisters Repentia into Psykers...I dont have any experience converting metal models though. I basically want to reposition some of their arms to the 'held outward typical psyker pose', and then strap laspistols to them somewhere.

Also, any ideas on converting the Repentia Mistress into an Overseer? There's no model for the Overseer at all (that I'm aware of), so I guess I'd have pretty free reign in this area, just want some suggestions.

Hey, did you ever get to making those plastic stormies you were talking about?

>>4518738
Consider your repentia idea stolen for psykers.

>>4518235
Definitely.

>>4518754
Heh, well I'm glad the idea doesnt sound totally retarded then :)

how would you go about making ig veterans other than popping catachan heads on cadian bodies?

>>4518738
Well the main thing is you'll need to give them all new hands as the old ones will be lost with the eviscerators
Some of the arms might be reposable but IIRC many of them are posed with the arms pressed against their head or bodies, meaning you can't repose them.
Laspistol holsters solve then gun problem easily enough

The mistress probably would work best if you simply gave her a gun instead of the whips, possibly a book or something in the other hand, and pose her like she's ready to BLAM anyone showing signs of going daemonic. Maybe replace the head with a helmetless one and give her a bionic eyepiece, all the better to track her flock with.

On a sidenote that's an iterresting idea for psykers, I'd have gone with Empire Wizards or Sanctioned Psykers, with a blinged-up comissar as the overseer.

>>4518744
What these?
>>4518777
Being the little nazi I am I'd say take those longcoat legs from the Cadian officer (gotta love dem legs), add a torso and the arm with the rope-bling fromt he Russ commander, give each beteran a different peaked cap head (officer, Russ commander, BB commander, metal liutenant, comissar...) and arm with your choise of guns.
Squad of mini-officers, all dressed up and ready to rock.

>>4518833
Both of the command sprues are pimp as hell.

>>4518611
not really it would take some bulking up of the frame to pull it off.

>>4518786
I figured there wouldnt be much room for reposing, thanks for the heads up though.

I dont want to use Sanctioned Psykers because I dont really like the models...there are only 3 and they are really, really similar poses to me.

The fluff behind my army in a nutshell is that its a rag-tag Guard force pulled together from dozens of different regiments that were left for dead on a death world. This gives me the freedom to 1) mix up the paintschemes on some models, and 2) use varios guard, and even non-guard models in my army and be able to justify them more easily.

What I might end up doing is using a blister of Sanctioned Psykers, a blister of Sisters Repentia, some Empire Wizards, as well as 1 or 2 Dark/Eldar Haemonculi/Farseers, and maybe even throw in a Tau Ethereal (all with conversions of course, to make them Imperial units) to represent an equally ragtag force of psykers pulled together from all those regiments. What do you fa/tg/uys think about that?

>>4518611
Na.

Probably easiest way is to take a sharpie/highlighter, cut it to size, add battle cannon bitz.

>>4518611
>>4518867
you CAN however use the alternate baneblade cannon as a very nice looking tank hunter

>>4518897
What are you using that autocannon barrel for? It's not too clear in the place.

>>4518912
pic, i mean, not place

>>4518777
I used also catachan arms but they do look a little big... The command squad has gasmaskes, mayde giving some of your normal guys them and giving them a lot of extra stuff (like ammopacks from some of your friends marines like I did)and adding some trophies could work.

>>4518840
Quite
As soon as I can muster the time, you'll be seeing some IG officer conversions

>>4518912
its a turret mounted autocannon. i did it cause i wanted a turret mounted autocannon..

>>4518936
All squads...TOOOO MEEEEEEEE!!!

SQUATS! TOOO M

>>4519022
I'm pretty sure the dwarf warrior box and a good load of Cadian bits would make perfectly good Squats.
Too bad Squattish vehicles are beyond salvation...

Oh, right.

What's a good way to build Eviscerators?

>>4519064
>Easy
Cut 'em off Repentias
>Medium
2 chainswords to make a long one, CSM double-sided ones work best IMO
>ORKY
3 or 4 chain-choppas to make a XBOX HUGE one

Can't find a photo of the Eclipsion Butcher model I made, he had a bigass eviscerator

>>4519097
I was thinking of doing four normal chainswords to get the double sided effect. And I wanted to avoid the sisters.

>>4519136
that might be a tad wide, but if it works with the look then go for it

Scriptarius, you are an awesome dude - but I'm bit saddened by the fact that those times when you appear I'm all out of awesome conversion ideas to ask about... ;_;

>>4518208

I wish you the greatest luck in your endeavour. Just looked up photos of Romanian soldiers and they had a pretty cool look about them. Post pics when you're done.

Scripty I think it's high time you put your own spin on Chaos Dorfs.

What happened to HUGE ANGRON?

You should combine all the ideas into one army.

Fuck yes, Script! Been wanting to ask you some stuff!

How do you go about making 100% sure that several models will fit together? For example, the other day I was making a very scenic model with a Plasma Gun-wielding Traitor Guardsman standing menacingly above the upper torso of a plasma'd Loyalist Guardsman, but at the end when I was going to glue it all together, suddenly the Plasma Gun-wielding guy doesn't face the Loyalist Guardsman, fucking the whole thing up.

Pretty much, how do you ensure multiple pieces in a project match up?

>>4519811
Hope to use some 1:28 scale PaK 40 guns in place of missile launchers, as well. Steel Legion would likely be the best, but meh. if I have to, a nice paintjob, some Romanian iconography, and a few greatcoats will get me by.

>>4520075

Sweet.

I guess if you got really desperate you could just 40Kify these guys, but the sculpts don't look especially good.

Script, how would you go about making the plasma sponsons for a Lemon Buss? I was thinking buffing some metal plasma guns I have laying around up with greenstuff and plasticard. Is this a bad idea y/n

>>4520109
Nah, I'd just use Bolt Action models from Warlord Games if I was gonna do that. Might still use their weapons, too.

>>4520156

Oh cool, didn't know Bolt Action made Romanians.

>>4520161
They don't. I'd modify the Germans mostly. Romanians never get any love...

What would people recommend using if I want to create molds/make castings? Latex for molds and resin for the casting? Also, is there any product in particular that works well/is cheaper, etc? I need a lot of plasma and heavy weapons, and GW isnt getting $16 for every single plasma gunnner I want to pick up.

Although I'm a righty I have a lot of love for my left hand. What's the best way to convert a bunch of my infantry to hold their guns left handed?

I use Eldar by the way, and I have a some Guardians I'd like to do it to. I already did it to one of the heavy weapon gunners cause he had a free hand and gun.

>>4519193
I was thinking of making this guy look like a "huge ass sword" hero, kind of like a mix of Guts and Nightmare.

You know, besides sisters, priests, and Kroot, who all gets access to Evis as weapons anyways? Kind of off topic, but eh.

>>4520650
>>"huge ass sword" hero
>>Final Fantasy
way to go, weeaboo

>>4521174
Exactly the kind of response I want.

>>4520263
What would people recommend using if I want to create molds/make castings? Latex for molds and resin for the casting?

No, you need to use silicon rubber for molds and 2 part urethane plastic... not resin. urethane plastic is vastly superior to the resin used by forge world.

I wrote 3 tutorial threads for this precise thing.
