Inquisitor Red Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 I'm always on the look out for cool Deathwatch conversions. Here are a few of mine, but share yours below! Watch Master - Made from the Vulkan He'Stan model The Iron Raven - Watch Captain made from the Artemis model Redemptor Dreadnought - I hate the static pose, as well as the boring Dreadnought face plate of this kit. Thought I'd share how pose able this guy can be. Intercessor Sergeant - Made from the Dark Angels Lieutenant model Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/351054-lets-see-your-deathwatch-conversions/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vel'Cona Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 That Redemptor is beastly! I love the aggressive pose on him. Smirk-Angel is always a cool model, too, and the weapon swaps really make him stand out.

Delta.Skies Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 my latest watchmaster, from the DI lieutenant and the madness terminator sergeant librarian: terminator captain my current work on a deathwatch hero, i doubt he will be playable cause of the funky loadouts termie captains have Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/351054-lets-see-your-deathwatch-conversions/#findComment-5187373 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lemondish Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 I knew it was only a matter of time before Delta's amazing work found its way into this thread. Sadly I missed posting some of the stuff I was working on before he dropped by, so now it won't compare very favourably ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/351054-lets-see-your-deathwatch-conversions/#findComment-5187465 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly I missed posting some of the stuff I was working on before he dropped by, so now it won't compare very favourably - I greatly appreciate that good sir, I havent posted anything in a while (working on Blood Angels) and figured why not. Still wanna see your work mate, please post. Im so not motivated about painting, Im still working on a squad that I started in September. hehe but theyre bits all over the place. Currently trying to build a Homebrew Chapter Master that im in between using Raven Guard Tactics or Imperial Fist Tactics since FAQ. :) (Also included in this is BA Company Veterans that im going primaris scale with) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/351054-lets-see-your-deathwatch-conversions/#findComment-5187528 Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjrwaud Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 Nice looking conversions Inquisitor! Delta's are always very ambitious and impressive, so I'll show a few of my slightly more subtle ones... Big fan of dreadnoughts, I'm not sure what I'm going to do with the Leviathan and Redemptor I have kicking around...

Delta.Skies Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 nice dreads man. and that's the hill i have to tackle soon, these vehicles and dreads. I bought a used dread that he pretty much used plastic glue and is just vanilla posed as they come, but im ecstatic to create one. Just indecisive on if I want it DW - BA - Or Vanilla SM. Pet peeve though is Ven Dreads with their lil heads popped out, just looks funny to me but you guys do them justice.

IronDreddKnight Posted November 11, 2018 Share Posted November 11, 2018 Delta.skies that librarian conversion is genius! I’ve been unhappy with my librarian for a while now, but your work has inspired me to create something similar. Can I ask where you got the swords?

The swords are from Warhammer Age of Sigmar: Malign Sorcery box set.

Prot Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 Delta... that librarian... are you kidding me?! Paint that darn thing. You have some great figs, but you keep raising your own bar and some of your stuff is amazing. I’ve said it before but I hate conversing and would kill for a Libby hovering with a flaming back pack, conjuring a cloud of magic swords! You really have to paint that fig. It’s a crime to just have a shelf full of this stuff unpainted! @Mjrwaud that Dread is so much better than my own. Truly puts mine to shame. @Red that gesturing Redemptor is subtle but I’d love it. My own Redemptor is pretty vanilla compared to this. You guys make me feel like I have to slow down from painting 75 armies a week. But regardless I don’t have the skill set to do that kind of great work in any meaningful volume. Great work in this thread.

mjrwaud Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 Yeah, that librarian of yours Delta is daaaaaamn fine! Painting and transporting such an intricate model is going to be a challenge... ;) Thanks Prot, I'm really happy with them though I'll probably go back and add some more contrast to the highlights eventually. You're definitely an inspiration to paint a bit faster, I've got a mountain of Deathwatch converted and ready to get go... and plenty more yet to build... work and getting ready to move back to Canada has really slowed me down.

Delta.Skies Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 Lol @prot yea man i know i keep putting off and building more. Still working and learning but im making a promise 1 squad and 1 hq by the end of this month. I need to get back to it. @mjr im just going to put it in the palm of my hand while i drive or in my cup holder. But tbh im not sure. Its pinned in but i ran 1 piece through 3 or 4 holes and then 1 at the arm. And i dont have a case nor foam yet but thats not a problem when i get to it. :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/351054-lets-see-your-deathwatch-conversions/#findComment-5190187 Share on other sites More sharing options...
infyrana Posted November 13, 2018 Share Posted November 13, 2018 How are you all converting your vets to storm bolters please? I hope it's not too off topic, but I'm bugging myself about whether ill chop up existing DW hands/bolters to attach new storm bolters or to use different arms forgoing the armour style of the DW arms. The minor things in life! @OP would like to see more of your redemptor pose, liking that stretched out hand. @Delta totally overkill! Some fantastic conversions and use of bits.

Chris521 Posted November 13, 2018 Share Posted November 13, 2018 Some pretty mild conversions but I thought they came out nice enough. On the left is a captain with jump pack storm bolter and thunder hammer (HTH head on normal handle) and on the right is a chaplain with jump pack, storm bolter and power fist.

On my deep strike squad I used GK stormbolters (some of the models there didnt make the final cut so I added two revisions) , then for my transport vets, i used deathwing stormbolters they were fairly cheap (found them for like 1.25 i believe). Just cut the terminator hands off and attached them to regular marine hands Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/351054-lets-see-your-deathwatch-conversions/#findComment-5190934 Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjrwaud Posted November 13, 2018 Share Posted November 13, 2018 Those DW / GK kitbashes look good! I'm a fan of those GK inceptor "jump" packs. I had some old scouts kicking around so I whipped up some lightly armoured DW veterans to add into my other kill teams... I'll treat them just like normal vets but just wanted to mix up the look of the teams. Just some simple head and weapon swaps, with doubled-up bases to give them a bit more height. It's a bad photo, but any thoughts / ideas are appreciated!

I like your chaplain - would you mind posting your bits list for him? Sure I started with the deathwatch chaplain kit. I'm not sure if they are currently selling that one but its this one. I took a storm bolter from the sternguard kit and put it in place of his bolt pistol. I cut around the hand to conserve as much as the chaplain as I could. The jetpack is from the Vanguard kit. I just chose the one with the most skulls. I think the powerfist came in the sternguard kit. This was the tricky park of the conversion since the model is molded with part of his arm so there was some cutting required. Fortunately the shoulder pads are pretty good at covering up that sort of thing.

Reyner Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 That is the first time I have looked at that Chaplain and thought "Damn now I want one" love the conversion :D that powerfist works so well!

Logiter Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 Think it's my first time posting on the Deathwatch subfourm. It's nothing fancy, but here is my Watch Master. Hope you like him!
