Chaos Hounds Converson W.I.P. 1

So bot a box of ten chaos hounds a while back with the intention of converting them into wolf's for space wolf chapter. Shortly after purchase I saw first preview for the fenris wolf's pack. Needless to say the box of hounds got put on the shelf.
Now I've changed plans and now will convert them into giant wolf rats for use with Skaven army or a unique space marine chapter still in development.

A quick look of what I have so far.

So first thing I've done was cut and reshape the plasted at the end of the hound so I can replace the short tails with a custom made rat tail. To do this I've taken gardening wire cut into a short length and a tear shape hope at one end. Then place a smaller amount of greenstuff on the inside and pressed the loop into the greenstuff, added super glue to inside then clapped shut.

Each of the chaos hound body half's have corrasponding numbers which help so much if keeping project moving smoothly.

The beast are far from done but I wanted to share some of my progress. I welcome any feedback.

Unboxing: Necromunda House Escher Gang

This is exciting finally get a look at the miniatures from warhammmer necromunda game. There is so.much rich history and fun connect to the old game and background and now to see it be revived it just amazing. Personal note: with life responsibilities not all day able to take time for the hobby of miniatures let alone my art, working to be more frequent with post and updates I have found it really helps me relax. So the Escher Gang box. I'm kinda impressed with box art, Will post the original art peicevwhen I can find it. Now onto looking at the contents. So we have have two stories of miniatures that are exactly the same, instructions and a set of 10 special round bases for the miniatures. Each of these bases are highly detailed and shaped to mimic the necromunda (and zone mortalis forgeworld boards) I think of have some fun ideas for converting even the bases Will have to experiment at a later time. Front and back few if the miniature spruce ...

Necromunda House Escher bolter conversion WIP 1

After looking over the necromunda gang house Escher box I decide I really wanted to started out with jumping into converting many of the weapons. The aim of my immediate work will to get many of the weapons cleaned up and fine to the basic form. First of these weapons will be the gang leaders range weapons the combi bolter/needler. I hope lay the ground work for future conversion of this fun bolter gun, first step will to take of the leaders arm from the bit of the spru, than clean up by saving the material and sanding where I can as much as possible. This is going to take some time for extra focus to detail and precision cuts, while there are two of these weapons in the box I rather not have to use that one yet. This a rough drawing next to the spru bit and my general idea and aim. So once I have the House Escher bolter down to its basic form it will open a create desk of opportunity for expanding armament options for house Escher gangs or any other warhammer faction that c...
