Cyrl Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 Perhaps not quite what you're looking for but... 40k Battlefield Accessories Kit There's also a couple of chain feed ammo belts on the chaos sprues, the HB one springs to mind immediately - maybe a friend has a couple spare? Similarly the regular set of Ork Boyz comes with a few for the Big shoota's and I'm sure the Loota/Burna boyz box would have even more assorted gun pieces (might want to check that as I've not seen the sprues before). Another idea would be to take a few legths of styrene rod or even chopped up paper clips and glue them together, once it's dried GS a thing stip along the middle - hiding the glue marks and taking the appearance of the "chain".

Mr.Millar Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 Personally, I would use a bitz website to obtain some spare termie storm bolters (the ones with the box mags ofc.) and do a simple conversion with them. It's what I'll do if i ever build a stern guard squad :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sword brethren Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 again bits site is the way to go, if you want drum mags then buy some imperial guard GLs and use the mag from that, good luck :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazy Eight Posted January 27, 2010 Author Share Posted January 27, 2010 I have tried all the above my previous red scorpion army stern guard used those items . Im looking for more of a dual drum magazine type look see pic http://i223.photobucket.com/albums/dd140/hitguns/MAG-G36-SOUND-DRUM-MAG-3000-2.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ufthak Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 I can only give a rather shallow suggestion...have you tried using bits of sprue? If you know how to do it you can make some nice mags out of it, it's difficult though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lestat Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 Try looking at Ork Boyz bitz (that last sentance was just so full of innuendo ;) ) I'm sure that there are a lot of spare mags and bulltes on the sprues. Some of the shootas come with drum magazines so it would be possible to do a simple conversion. Heres a link to what I mean http://bitsandkits.co.uk/shop/category_76/...param=cid%3D%26 Hope that helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdeptusDavidus Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 I have tried all the above my previous red scorpion army stern guard used those items . Im looking for more of a dual drum magazine type look For the C-Mag look that you're talking about, your best route is going to be bits of plastic rod around the right diameter. Cut two segments, glue them to either side of a normal plastic boltgun magazine, then file the magazine down flush with the bits of rod. Any gaps can be filled with a teeny smidge of putty, or even with a bit of thin plasticard simply glued across the bottom. You can add detail to the sections of rod by taking a drill bit near their diameter and making a slight hollow, or using your pin vice to add the little dimple in the center of the drum. Several companies make a pretty wide variety of shapes of plastic rod (or tube), so you could experiment with, say, octagonal, instead of round, drums.
