Marshal van Trapp Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 here i made a quick easy little tutorial to convert your scouts' bolters into a lancer from Gears of War What you need: a lasgun, a bolter, and a chainsword piece http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f12/Comm_Nagrom/my%20DIY%20chapter%20WIP/LancerTut.jpg step 1: cut las gun just above the bottom sloped part, and the bolter just above the grip (see pic 1) step 2: cut the front of the las gun at an angle and the ammo off the bolter (see pic 1) step 3: glue the las gun top to the bolter bottom, LET THIS DRY!!! (see pic 2) step 4: drill a hole in the front of the bolter las gun combination, cut an appropriate length of plastirod and glue it in (see pic 3) step 5: carve out the inside of a chainsword and glue it into place (see pic 3) step 6: cut a new length of plastic rod (square) for the new ammo feed DONE! hope you all enjoy this little tutorial Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/174304-modelling-how-to-make-gears-of-war-lancers/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marshal van Trapp Posted July 28, 2009 Author Share Posted July 28, 2009 thanks, and i think it would look great on a wolf, i originally mad it for my CoG soldier army, but that idea fizzled out and my new DiY chapter was born, i still have the models, but now they are neophytes in my BT army (yeah yeah yeah, i know no bolter neophytes, they count as shotguns since they don't look very boltery) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/174304-modelling-how-to-make-gears-of-war-lancers/#findComment-2063351 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firenze Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 When I saw this thread I thought it was another guy telling us how to stick chainswords on bolters. But you have done a great tutorial for great looking guns. Well done!

Marshal van Trapp Posted August 4, 2009 Author Share Posted August 4, 2009 why thank you, nope no chainswords on bolters here, i made some actual (IMO good looking) lancers that very much represent the actual lancers, i was planning to do each of the guns, but i hit some financial troubles so i never got around to it Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/174304-modelling-how-to-make-gears-of-war-lancers/#findComment-2069280 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alienerd Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 A chapter master with a hammer of dawncould work I guess as the orbital bombardment, but for the conversions you've done, they are superb, I myself love gears 1 and 2, and you've represented the lancer perfectly. Well done in my books! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/174304-modelling-how-to-make-gears-of-war-lancers/#findComment-2081837 Share on other sites More sharing options...
