Knight Reference Thread: Links to Knight Conversions

[Adir]

My dreadknight conversion pales in comparison to the previous scratchbuilt knight but here he is:

He is made of the dreadknight kit, a sentinel cockpit, and plastic card for the saw arms.

Here is my original WIP thread.

[Magos Paru]

I've been off the forum for quite some time but have made my representation of a knight using 2 plastic model kits that made this sucker expensive to make ($100).

 

I call it the "Ironclad Dreadknight"

I took a dreadknight and ironclad dreadnaught kits a little help from a dremel kit please enjoy

Hi all I am new to the Adeptus mechanicus and got interested after reading thru the age of emperor rule book, and like the idea of the Knight class titan and found these from warmachines

 

warmachine

 

and

they look the right size, and pretty sure ther made from plastic so are easy to convert.

 

PS - i hope i put the link in right

I've added the DreamForge-Games Leviathan...

So... Anyone converted a Riptide or Wraithknight to the Imperium yet? Edited June 3, 2013 by miteyheroes

[BassWave]

Not yet, but the release of the wraith knight has made me re-think the size of a knight titan. Anything based on the dread knight is now too small, considering that eldar knights and imperial knights were comparable in size.

[Tiger9gamer]

Never mind if they are to small though :P

 

any guides on how to build one?

If you're looking to build a knight, read the first post of this thread. It links to just about every one ever converted...

 

Anyway. Latest one made is Dave Taylor's Dreadknight conversion: http://davetaylorminiatures.blogspot.co.uk/2013/06/volsinii-imperator-complete.html

I love the lance, and the extending of the gatling gun. Unconvinced by the head though - how does the pilot see?

[Tiger9gamer]

I know about that, but I need a How to guide, not reference.

[Chaplain Killmer]

Iirc knight and lord were ranks of the old knight formations back when they appeared in the WD. Wardens and senecalls too - they were kind of special "oldies" that were fighting in some separate formation and had some special rules applied to them.

[*Furyou Miko]

Senescals ;) and seneschals and wardens are 'housekeepers'. The senescal is kind of like a combination of secretary and regent. The warden is the protector, he defends the knights' home.

I wanted to add a photo of my Space Wolf themed Knight.

 

If you wish to have final completed photos I can send them when finished.

please try not to laugh too hard

[clanfield]

actually I really like that the height is good love the shoulders/warlord imagery  nice colours too shame its a evil naughty bugger and not true the omissariah but hey we all got flavour .

 

no definatly 7.5 out of 10 well done matey

[Beaumains]

thankyou - always nerve wracking posting a first attempt

[jamesknouse]

Hey guys I am looking for comments on my above Space Wolf Knight build. Should I give him a tad more height? I am asking because I am slating 2 more to build.

[Beaumains]

I love the detail on it but as you saw on mine I always kinda pictured them as about half way between a dread and a warhound in size

[clanfield]

the wolf knight seems good If anything id decorate the end of the gun barrels maybe ,as with most conversion's painting them makes them look much better (you should see frank and benny).

 

if I can figure out how to post pictures here ill show you all my skittari and impetuous rex my war hound (no3222)  

[SW1]

Really like the idea of doing something like a Knight for an Admec force.  Thanks for bringing the many varied sources together!!!  :D

[miteyheroes]

So, the rumour machine is saying we might see official GW knight models...

 

On the other hand, we've been hearing this for ages. Still, I'd love it to be true!

[clanfield]

my only nit pic is people say they will be a data slate which sucks to be me but other wise I am keen for sure . dang its hot in here

[*Furyou Miko]

Better a dataslate than a whole damn codex of revisionist crap.

[Tiger9gamer]

I'm very excited for it. Think it would be a Lord of War like the Warhound titan is or maybe just an allied guy?
