Abaddon Scratch Build

These pictures are the wrong way round here, but these are my working of Abbadon. Yes I know the Talon of Horus is on his left hand, but the Latin for left is Sinusitis which sounds better. Ogre big sword, bolters again cut to fit the power fist, blades on the lightning claw are combat knife, power pack is actually a metal necron body with space Marine power pack bit glued onto it and the trophy racks from the Chaos Terminator Lord box. Mounted on the rocks from the Chaos Terminator Lord to give it some extra height. I've since added a top knot to the head and an ariel to the back pack. The middle picture was to judge which head was better. He is the overall commander of the Black Legion so I've given him a miked head that is shown on this one to represent the fact that he'd be directing troops. The bottom picture was an option head that I was thinking of using but in the end I put that helmet back in my bits box.

Rouge Mechanicus Lord, Now Needs A Re-work

This is the one I'm most proud of my Rouge Mechanicus Lord, treated as a Chaos Lord in the Codex, at the core of the model is the Blood Bowl Wraith, to this I've added a Necron Lord arm to give him 3 arms, spent ages looking for another arm I could use but in the end just gave up, 3 short curved blades and with the knuckle duster on the other hand that makes paired lightning claws, the twin linked bolter is an ork shooter that I've cut up, filed down and added 2 bloter mags to the top of and attached to the 3rd arm after removing the wrist. The hand i cut off and then mounted the wrist and forearm guard on the shoulder as a plasma pistol. I've since added some Kroot head quills to the back of the helmet.

Slannesh Sorceress

This is My Slannesh Sorceress, no conversion done at all on this one, just straight from the blister pack, a Senior Sister from a Serephim Squad. Although I have since added a pair of the old Dark Eldar Scourge wings. Look like a winged jump pack rather than the flutes on the Serephim model.

to the left you can see 1 of my Terminator conversions for my Corrupted Sisters of Battle. Going to run with them as Marines for as I have the Chaos Marines Codex. Terminator body and legs, from club bits box, Chaos Terminator Chainfist with the lower blade removed and switched with a meltagun. The model is armed with a combi bolter the idea for splitting the barrles came from a guy at the club who had done that with his Tech Marine and mounted the Infernus pistol onto the models jump pack. I've since gone on to make more of these, photo will follow soonish.

Cypher

This is one of my fav bits of work. This is a Cypher conversion I did last yesr to finish off my Chosen Marines for my XIX Chapter. Second pic is the parts that went into making the miniture, Khorne Berzerker Power Pack and Sword, one of the last of my old style bolt guns with the strap taken off a Scout Marine Bolt gun and Cyphers Bolt Pistol arm

First of the Knights Of Blood

Okay this is a conversion I did a couple of months ago when i first had the idea, it's made from Terminator legs, a tank tech marine body that I filed flat, a Khorne Berzerker power pack and Teminator arms with Ogre pit fighter punch dagger hands, after seeing how much damage a punch dagger could on Deadliest Warrior. The basic idea was to do a cheap terminator with spare parts I had and had scrounged from the club bits box.

The Rework

So between the bank holidays we've all enjoyed in this country and the amazing weather as well in this country( I'm putting some washing out on the line to dry when i get home, better than a rain dance) I spent an afternoon in the house with my collection and an agenda.
As mentioned before I'd made some Daemon Hunters and had some Chaos stuff that I wasn't using so I pulled all of those out, lined everything up on my coffee table and shuffled stuff around till I was happy(got some funny looks off the people walking by my living room window as well). Most of the standard bolter across the chest models, the Space Crusade and some Soul Drinkers I'd bought, will be going to make the Iron Warriors. Most of the Daemon Hunters have been put in with the XIX as more dynamic stance Chaos Marines, most of my troops where split when i still played them as loyal, and had half charging with either a bolter and bolt pistol or knife and bolter(personal preference there) and the other half more statically stood as if covering the Heavy Weapon guy. So most of the Marines I've pulled from the box and culled from my assault squads( my Assault Squad/Raptors are now all Dark Angel Veteran models with jump packs) are going to represent fallen The Knights of Blood in my massive army.

This has left me with some massive amounts of painting to be done and some more paint to be bought, need some bleached bone, sounds so much better than beige, and some more bolt gun metal, as for now the only things I can finish off are the Knights of Blood and of course I can make a start on the XIX's new recruits , just need teh beige to finish them off, oh yes and 5 more Dark Angel Vets and some jump packs from mail order. And then I can start to but the next round of tanks and transports and all the rest, and by then we should have the plastic Sisters of Battle for me to start the Corrupted Sisterhood.
