Converting for dummies: posing your model intrigueingly (don't know how to spell that).

Hi, this is the second simple conversion and is also my second post today (check out the other conversion for dummies below). This one is about Dark eldar bet as in the last post it could work with many other races.


So this is what ya need, you also need some sort of scope or something and you need some clippers or a hobby knife and some glue, the spikes are also optional.
Basic building.

Grab your gun.


cut off the arm and reposition it so it is much more straight.



Then attach the gun in a relaxed pose (this gun is heavy and he is holding it in one hand).





Cut off the end of the gun and file the top right down the file down the bottom of the actual gun.





Now glue the end of the gun to the bottom.





Get your other arm and some sort of scope or something then glue it into the hand.








You can reposition the thing in his hane then attach the arm as though the dark eldar is examining/using the item, also, attach the head.



Add the long hair down the back of the shoulder.




Finished model.




Note: AS BEFORE YOU MAY NEED TO CLIP/FILE EXTRA LITTLE BITS!

Converting for dummies: I want to chop people with my gun aswell as shoot them!

Hi, this is the first conversion, now this may be done on an Ork but it will work for most races (imagine an assaule marine with a bolt pistol with underslung chainsword and targeter). So here we go!


All the stuff you need is here, basicaly a black reach ork with chain thing and slugga, some glue, some files and clippers.

A close-up of the exact pieces.First, cut off the ammo clip from the gun.


Sorry about the blur on this one, what it is supposed to show is the chain blade and motor cut off.

Now cut the blade from the motor.

Finally add the motor whee the clip was but with the exhaust acting as a hand guard. Then attach the chain blade.
Note: YOU WILL HAVE TO FILE BITS DOWN THROUGHOUT THIS TUTORIAL AND MAY HAVE TO CUT OFF LITTLE EXTRA BITS !!!!!!!!!!!

Conversions for dummies: A new series about converting.

Ok, so I am going to do a new series about doing simple conversions, this will be done step-by-step and hopefully will help people.

A couple of days ago, I was thinking about converting. I know I am not the best converter but not everybody is and it is hard to learn some of the basic skills when you join theis obby, so I will be converting on some of the following races:

Space marines.
Orks.
Dark eldar warriors.
Tyranids
Maybe some other I am not sure.

So, tell me what you think and say if your interested.
