Gresiloth Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 A friend of mine kindly gave me a spare Techmarine, so I decided to have some fun converting him into Morbus the Mech-Lord, a character from the fluff of my Nurgle army! I've already got him on a bike, but he was the obvious choice for this creation too. Here it is so far: http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i211/ashbeyj/All%20Shall%20Rot/100_1938.jpg - I've sculpted over all the imperial insignia, given him a bulging gut and added a couple of plastic parts (heavy bolter ammo feed, helmet horn). http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i211/ashbeyj/All%20Shall%20Rot/100_1939.jpg - here is the backpack so far - I'm not using it in its true 'robo-arms' form as I think that would be a bit distracting (I'll keep the arms for the bits box). Annoyingly I don't have a single spare Chaos Space Marine backpack, but I intend to glue the vents from one of those onto each side of this backpack. - the banner is from a Dark Angels Veterans sprue - this angle doesn't show a bit of a Khorne icon used on the front, which I quite like. I plan to put him on a 40mm base (don't have any at the moment), but other than that he's pretty much ready to paint!

Stargazer Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 Very nice, just a thought maybe you could include a tentacle or two instead of the arms on the servo harness as i said earlier very nice look forward to seeing it painted Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/158522-nurgle-techmarine/#findComment-1856684 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gresiloth Posted January 25, 2009 Author Share Posted January 25, 2009 I managed to locate an old CSM backpack afterall, as well as a 40mm base - he is now ready to be sprayed, once I have textured the base. http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i211/ashbeyj/All%20Shall%20Rot/100_1942.jpg http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i211/ashbeyj/All%20Shall%20Rot/100_1943.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/158522-nurgle-techmarine/#findComment-1857255 Share on other sites More sharing options...
