steel hurricane Posted May 2, 2009 Share Posted May 2, 2009 is it possible to convert models from 3rd/4th edition IG infantry troops and make them DH infantry troops at least choosing the right colors? i also own Necromunda's Delaque Squad models (7) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/167520-converting-ig-infantry-models-to-dh-troops/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
revnow Posted May 2, 2009 Share Posted May 2, 2009 What all do you have available? My stormtroopers are Cadians with Catachan heads and carbine lasguns painted special ops colors, they will double as Vets for the new IG codex as well.

Imperator Mos Posted May 2, 2009 Share Posted May 2, 2009 it is very possible, just depends on how you want them to look. Inducted IG really isn't going to look any different, they've just been snatched up to help out an Inquisitor. If you want to model and Inquisitor's house troops, then I think Necromunda models are a good place to start. I use Arbites made from plastic Cadians, with FW upgrades and Inquisition brass etched symbols to make them stand out. Putting =][= transfers on your guard will also serve to indicate Inquisitorial conscription...

steel hurricane Posted May 2, 2009 Author Share Posted May 2, 2009 i have 20 cadian infantry models already equipped with rifles , helmets, i think that using an appropriate color scheme they will be nice, i think to use them as an add on to an SM existing force, otherwise i can use them with 2 HQ's i have a torquemada models with followers and another inquisitor with followers along with 3 GK terminators a Stern and a possessed one, addinig in 2 troops of 10 men will be sufficient for a small battle of DH assisted by SM what do you think ? i'm also trying to sell those wolves i cannot convert easily, is there a market section?

Aidoneus Posted May 3, 2009 Share Posted May 3, 2009 I did this with Cadian models. Used converted comm packs, re-breather helms, and some guitar wire. Check it out You can see the painted version here, under "IST conversion from IG" Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/167520-converting-ig-infantry-models-to-dh-troops/#findComment-1975207 Share on other sites More sharing options...
steel hurricane Posted May 3, 2009 Author Share Posted May 3, 2009 nice conversions there! well i've a starting point to legalize IG into DH basic troops, the only detail i have to take into account is that mine are equipped with rifles with bayonettes, dunno if that matters to counting them as DH infantry guns Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/167520-converting-ig-infantry-models-to-dh-troops/#findComment-1975256 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aidoneus Posted May 3, 2009 Share Posted May 3, 2009 It doesn't necessarily matter, but since IST models don't have 'em, it might look more genuine if you clip 'em off.
