Death Guard and pox walker getting started boxs

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 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.

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
