Heru2012 Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 Hi guys, just thought I'd share with you a bit of work in progress with you. I found the tutorial on here for the quads so I thought I'd make my MoTF on a quad. I still need to work on the weapon a bit...bit stumped on how to get that conversion beamer look without buying a FW one, so any suggestions are welcomed! http://i957.photobucket.com/albums/ae53/Lotan_2009/DSC_0002.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Son of Carnelian Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 This is one of the daftest things I have ever seen. And I love it! Keep us updated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lachdannan Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 Very unique idea. as for the conversion beamer, could maybe use an appropriate shaped button for the small dish? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heru2012 Posted April 19, 2012 Author Share Posted April 19, 2012 Ding dang done it! Got the forge world contemptor pic up and this is what I used. I found an old imp guard mortar, a screw, some mechadendrites, a hubcap, and a sanguinary guard jump pack nozzle! Here's some updated pics. I had to bump it up with a couple of coins due to the techmarines headroom. It's magnetised so it can swivel. http://i957.photobucket.com/albums/ae53/Lotan_2009/DSC_0003.jpg http://i957.photobucket.com/albums/ae53/Lotan_2009/DSC_0004.jpg Hope you enjoy the change as much as I do!

Lachdannan Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 Nice. Its the coils in the middle and the pipes that really do it for me. Great work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kierdale Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 Very nice work! I really must make one of these myself sometime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heru2012 Posted April 19, 2012 Author Share Posted April 19, 2012 Just thought I'd put it up for peeps to check out! Here it is finished. I don't think it's too bad for an "on the fly" kitbash/conversion! http://i957.photobucket.com/albums/ae53/Lotan_2009/DSC_0006.jpg http://i957.photobucket.com/albums/ae53/Lotan_2009/DSC_0007.jpg Hope you enjoy C&C welcome!

Ironwrought Huw Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 This is without a doubt, one of the most insane yet completely awesome models I've ever seen. And I absolutely love it :) Nice use of the use of the predator engine deck cover/turret ring piece for the rear wheel arches. Personally I would have painted the hammer and his shoulder trims a bright polished metal colour (chainmail?), but that's more my own taste - it looks fine as it is. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You were close with the predator bits, its actually a landraider engine cover, and the mounting on top is that of a land raider too, come to thing of it if you had reminded me of the preator ringtop thing before this I could've saved some money! God! ;) As for the hammer etc, I think thats temporary. He's supposed to be THE master of the forge, the top guy, and he looks like a pleb apprentice with a copper hammer. He's not glued on so he will be removed and upgraded at some point! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warsmith Aznable Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 Love this thing! The remodeled beamer is definitely better. Good on you for getting it painted so quickly, too! My conversions normally languish in primer for a long while... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Throne Bearer Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 Great concept. You did a super job with the beamer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slyen Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 Might be a little late for me to point it out but your larger headlight looks as if it is aimed to the sky rather then forward. A better place would have been where the Aquila is on the front. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heru2012 Posted April 21, 2012 Author Share Posted April 21, 2012 @-Max- Cheers buddy, I thought I'd get it painted as soon as just incase it ended up just being left by the wayside. I've been sticking strictly to my marines for 3 monthsish now so I wanted something different to do. Just got 2 preds, landraider, vindicator, razorback and a drop pod, all half done to finish by mid may. @Throne Bearer Cheers man! @Sylen Yeah, I wanted to find something else to go there. Its not that integral to the structure so replacing it is no bother. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
