Mudpuppet Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 Hey boys, Thinking of converting a Sanguinor, not really to use especially but more of a display piece and was looking for some info first. I was thinking of using the lead model from the metal vanguard vets as the model, and replacing the jump pack with Astoraths. However, i dont know anything about the Astorath model, is his jump pack and wings seperate or is it moulded onto the body or what? Also the model im gonna try convert is this one: http://www.games-workshop.com/gws/catalog/...dId=prod1560129 Was wondering if anyone has this model and knows how it comes, is it one sold block or are any bits seperate etc? Was basically gonna see what it looked like trying to replace the head with a death mask, not sure what yet and replace the backpack with Astoraths jumppack as i love the wings on it, way cooler than the actual Sanguinors wings. Thoughts? Mudpuppet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evileyevirtue Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 The body is one piece, the arms are seperate. Basically right arm with sword and the other arm attaches to the body and the other hand on the sword. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crynn Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 Haha you missed his question dude. Astoraths Packs is seperate from the body and the wings are seperate to the powerplant and thruster so it should make for very easy converting.

biglou666 Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 hmm nice idea... just remember that astorath has lots of scrolls attached to his back pack, (which i removed off mine, didnt like them) i just clipped them off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
