So made another purchase at favorite hobby store and started another project. I purchased the starting box kits for death Guard and pox walkers.
After a fun conversation with another miniature hobbyist I took these two boxes home to begin the work of cutting cleaning and reshaping quite a few of the compoments in both kits. Looking at the pox walker sprue I'm really impressed with all the details and I'll ask of assemble if the miniatures. I decided to cut and collect all the nurgle fly icons That I can from box kits but starting with poxwalers first. The goal of cutting them will be made a small sprue and mold to replicate as many as needed for converting future miniatures dedicated to nurgle both in fantasy and 40k warhammer.
Now there a pox walker in this box I really like for the gas mask and rotted fire axe he weilds. I very much what to have more so I cut it out and began cleaning off the hands and slime to make it more universal to use wither miniatures. This will definitely will be a something I will be repicating.
I will be working with gas mask head as well but sure with parts.
Now the Death Guard box present so many wonderful features, the power fist, plasma gun held by the tentacles, the toxic assault grenade launcher are the first bit I'm cutting free and cleaning up to use in conersions.
It took a good while to cut the plasma gun free and clean up I will be adding details with greenstuff to the plama gun like adding the power coils that I damage or where never there adding a handle and trigger. It was a little heart breaking to take plasma gun of the simply because I live the detail and tjought of the spare weapon being held by the tentacles mutation of the Death Guard.
The item to be the focus was the awsome power fist of a ancient design. I love it. What so many more of them and have so many idea for conversions.
This simple a start I will update later with more photos and my progress. Now more work has been on another projects I simple had time to take photos. I do apologise for the photos quality it from using my cheap phone.
As always quests comments welcomed.
So been taking a break from posting content and working on art due to starting my second and family related issues all is well but it had to take the focus. In the time I found great inspiration for my current project as well as future ones. Here is just a great image of the character Here are two great ones with simply weapons switch. Here are some other wonderful finds These last images are a great miniature artist Who has a great fundness for the squat faction of old has done so many converson that at just simply amazing. Once I learn how to link to his blog I will edit this page again. But teal great reason I wanted to share this is what he has done is some thing so similar to what I wish to do with this model. So looking some other fun conversions using Terminator bitz. Not my favorites but still great fun. This a great one I really like, I do somethings differently but great paint job and exalent use of various bitz. Now not directly a Squa...
