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 can be converted.

These images you see all the details before I pick up the knife and start cutting away materials, while I really like all the fine details put into this weapon and the arm holding it.
The amount of detail put in the hand is great.


This is the immediate progress so far it also is the point where I have to decide on weather I keep the needler secondary armament on or remove it, and if I do choose to remove the weapon I need to decide best way to remove it I’ll also have to consider best way to rebuild that section of the bolter along with rebuilding the bolter shell ejection port.

Going to call it a night on this project for now.

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.
