CainTheHunter Posted September 14, 2010 Share Posted September 14, 2010 How about some conversion where he's laying on the floor under the feasttable, terribly drunk, with a victorious Logan Grimnar triumphing over him? :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/211121-calgar-conversion/#findComment-2511648 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chodjinn Posted September 14, 2010 Share Posted September 14, 2010 remove all ultra symbols. Bin the power fists and give him twin wolf claws, wolf him up a fair bit with a wolf pelt etc. Job done.

Thunderhawk3015 Posted September 14, 2010 Share Posted September 14, 2010 As was previously stated removed the Ultra symbols. I'd keep the power fists and using some 'nid hormogaunt claws convert the fists to twin wolf claws and green stuff the cloak to be a wolf pelt.

jmurph Posted September 14, 2010 Share Posted September 14, 2010 Marneus will require extensive work. First, dremel all UM iconography off the model body and clip the iron halo. Save for bits box. Very large icons like the belt buckle will need to be sculpted over. I would probably completely GS over the tabard and dremel smooth his right shoulder. Sculpt a wolf face or similar for his belt buckle. Fur for the tabard interspersed with hanging charms, teeth and runes stones. File down the top of the terminator armor where it looks like an eagle. Cover with GS wolf pelt (maybe use the WG terminator wolf pelt as a base). Extend skull on left shoulderpad to look canine. You may want to swap out one arm for a Frostblade, storm shield, etc. Otherwise, clip the bolters and add claws. Good luck! It will be alot of work!

Franc Posted September 14, 2010 Share Posted September 14, 2010 Well, he would make an excellent conversion to Arjack, since there is no model. You would need to chop off his Gauntlets of Ultramar and attach TH+ SS from wolf terminator box. Add this to previous post and you should have nice Arjack conversion.

Valerian Posted September 14, 2010 Share Posted September 14, 2010 How about some conversion where he's laying on the floor under the feasttable, terribly drunk, with a victorious Logan Grimnar triumphing over him? ;) nice idea :lol: seems you dont like Calgar. me either but the model is pretty nice so i dont wanna waste it ;) Don't waste him; go to a website like Rogue Market and see if you can trade him for the Njal Stormcaller in TDA model (or some other suitable Space Wolves model).

Grey Mage Posted September 14, 2010 Share Posted September 14, 2010 Valerian has a good idea- if you think its going to be more trouble than its worth a good bitz-swap for something that will be useful to you is probly the best bet.
