Primaris Space Dwarf Conversion W.I.P.1

Super awesome space dwarf, had to throw that out there since was the first impulsive title to use for this article. You can tell yours on that title later, moving.

So I done a few Conversions of miniature models in the best, but none have survived moving to be useful with this blog, so one will start fresh which I indeed to share here.

So a few nights ago I had a great deal of freedom after work, a rarity, and I decided to go to one of my favorite hobby stores in this area, Fantasy Games. I went had a set limited I wanted to spend, I didn't stick to it but I had fun and I didn't break the bank.

Having collection of various factions of all settings of warhammer , I honestly could not decide on which one to expand one. So I wondered around the store and just had fun.

I came across a special release a limited edition model. It was Grombridal, white dwarf 40th anniversary model.

Also the easy to build Primaris space marine's intercessors.

We these two purchases I had a insane possible foolish idea for a conversion.

Kit bash both box and try make something fun maybe later the test bed for mold and casting experiments.

So I want to take the Grombridal model and take it down to the basic of the power armor which the original sculpture made to resemblance the Primaris Marines armor. I even debating making a squat army based on this little guy.

Here's my work so far.

Here a comparison shot of the models with Primaris helm temporary glued in place.

Here's a better shot and rough idea of where I'm going with this kit bash.

Comparison of the power pack of the models.

Going to clean up the Grombridal power back and get rid of the wood barrel aspect and resculpt into Manor similar to the Primaris.

Still debating about dwarf face icon on the pack may or may not resculpt as well into more Primaris.

Now from here I need to do slot of filling with greenstuff and sculpting to create the armor plating just down sized.

Well I will make more post on progress later

Would live feed back.

Project start on

Death Guard power pack conversion WIP

Continue the work cutting up the models to find I want use to create something can be fun. It does create the issue sometimes being so involved one forgets to take photos. The idea behind all this work is trying a make these power pack not only more appealing to me but make more functional in the fictional sense of making sure these packs have the jet exhausted as intend in all power. It's something I just need to be there for my own sanity. Looking at my work table you can see the freed power packs from Death Guard starter box as well as the power packs from chaos booster box for lack other term. The first power pack being my favorite from the box with central skull on the back and the tentacles holding the plasma gun. The plasma gun was removed at set aside to be clean up for another conversion in progress. With removing the plasma gun it did prosent the problem of the lower combonets damage or removed in the process. I'll use the similar price from the older chaos marin...

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. ...

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...
