The Crimson Cartel Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 Just like the tag says lads, if you wanted to model up a new Meph, what bits/models would you use? -CC Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/225020-if-you-wanted-to-make-a-new-mephy/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boltergeist Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 This is a pic of mine, taken at a recent tourney. He's my Blood Drinkers chapter Mephiston clone: http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-TudpJTQG3fA/TWufRZF9LTI/AAAAAAAAAJY/ovpesybNZt0/s1600/IMG_20110226_114119.jpg Warmachine model base, Librarian force sword arm, chaplain plasma pistol arm, BA/DA backpack, and GS all around. I'm pleased with how he turned out. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/225020-if-you-wanted-to-make-a-new-mephy/#findComment-2692217 Share on other sites More sharing options...

4RC71C FOXX Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 I made mine from all plastic bits, combination of Sanguinary Guard and Dark Angels Veteran Bits: The hooded head and cloaked body of DA with the Sang Guard body front plate and Sang Guard arms and pads. I will try and get a picture up to show a better idea of what I mean FOXX Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/225020-if-you-wanted-to-make-a-new-mephy/#findComment-2692369 Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnorriSnorrison Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 Have you seen jawaballs mephiston it's converted from the WHFB vlad von carestein the finnished model looks like this: I liked Jawa's work before, but that's just too much. :D I used the "jumping" SG legs with the two emblems on the legs, a normal marine torso and a mould press from Meph's armour. His sword was fixed into an new arm, and the PP is also aiming while he's slicing forward like a scythe. I think I will either cut his old hood off or try to remake it from GS, just like I will try to make him a robe from GS, when I finally get around assembling the parts. Actually, that shall be the next point on my list after finishing the Stormraven, the Furioso, the Scouts....

Midnightmare Posted March 20, 2011 Share Posted March 20, 2011 Brother, how did you pull off "decapitating" meph so cleanly? Pin vice and a junior hack saw :P I always leave loads of excess so I can file it to a 'snug fit' and green stuff any gaps. I also filed down the plastic collar on the marine torso for a better fit. His head is actually from the original run of the mini during Angels of Death era when I was last into the hobby!! Memories butchered in one fell decapitation <_< Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/225020-if-you-wanted-to-make-a-new-mephy/#findComment-2695416 Share on other sites More sharing options...
