Another quick post, just to let you know that work has commenced on the assembly of the Space Wolves. I couldn't resist doing some conversion work on them, but I think I might put the next squad together without snipping off arms,legs or hands, just for a change :)
In the above pic (collage to the rescue) you might be able to see that I've drilled out the barrels on all of the weapons, it's a piece of cake on placky mini's so it was no trouble to do them all in the one go. You may have also noticed that there's a few of them with one of their legs not touching the base....I'll be giving them something to stand on or leave them in the "mid step" position.
These guys aren't finished yet either. They still need the modified section filled in & smoothed out, but I think I'll do that work once the lot of them has been completely assembled.
Anywho, until next post....cheerio lead lovers :)
Great work, Im really inspired by your conversions. Im doing a low-key project with some of these old marines too at the moment and its really useful to see your poses.
ReplyDeleteI read your article about this project and you say you need some jet bikes. I have one of the p0inty ones like the one in this image http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-fOWumvrUTeQ/UjYuSK4WyFI/AAAAAAAAH7s/Wy_YI2I-dso/s1600/IMG_6457.JPG
If you want it please let me know!
Thanks for the compliments Curtis. I really like pimping up these marines...it's about as close to sculpting as I can get :) I'd be interested in seeing your incarnations too. Any chance they'll be making an appearance?
DeleteRegarding the offer, thank you very much, but I've actually decided to make my own from scratch. A crazy idea I know, but I'm not much of a fan of the RT jet bikes. Once I've finished making up the marines I'll start on the bikes.
Cheers buddy :)
