Dark Vengeance Conversions

I've trimmed the DA symbols off the bikes to use them as white scars, usefully I found two old type front fairings so I could cut the wing bits off each side of the handlebars and replace them with the codex parts, replaced a bolt pistol with a plasmaguns to make some alternative special weapon guys.

 

I turned the sarge into a biker librarian using the torso of an old metal librarian I cut up long ago but lost his bike over the years as I needed more regular bikers. The front eagle should be fine for an HQ.

 

My librarian lost the DA symbol on his neck scarf and gained a deathwatch shoulder pad with a simple arm swap (keeping the force weapon), one day I'lll have enough deathwatch for an army of them...

Two of the DV terminators are the same, so I thought that would be a bit naff to just paint them up the same. I've got a box of Assault Terminators awaiting paint, and as you get 5 pairs of LCs and 5 TH/SS there's obviously spares to go round. So, here is the painted vanilla DV terminator with his Lightning Claw converted brother

And the LC dude painted....

I went ahead and started modifying all of my DV terminators to use magnetized lightning claws. If you look closely, you can also see that I have two magnets on the base to store the extra arm pieces when the unit is in storage. You can see the full conversion with more pictures on my blog post, if interested.

DV got me moving on the Dark Angels and I built up a Deathwing/Ravenwing force. To eliminate the duplicated models I tried changing a few things when building the second set of Terminators:

Assault cannon from Squad 1, Sergent from Squad 2

Unfortunately by the time I realised the standard Termie chest peice fit this guy it was too late for the first three! Oh well.

Last up is a super easy Azrael which I'm sure I'm not the first person, or last, to make this. Quite like the helmet bearer using the Watcher fromthe Deathwing kit.

 

Very simple but hopefully effective!

 

(Sorry, no idea why the pictures are ridiculously different sizes!)

Heres mine

 Oh if only anyone but Black Templar could do that legally. Very well done though.

heres my conversion

i wanted to avoid the overly gothic chaos stuff, so i cleaned my chaos lord a bit.

so no bear cloak or leering demonic faces, just good ol' egyptian sorceror theme goin on. he`s a sorceror or lord based on his arm magnet

 

i did a reverse grip hold on the sword but i`m not too happy with it, so maybe i`ll chop it off and repose it in the future

Very simple Blood Angel Librarian Conversion:

 

(Space Wolves Chest plate, Empire (I think) sword, minimal green stuff, Sanguinary guard arm, jump pack).

I know I'm a little late on this thread but just discovered it via google aearch. I did a BT conversion on a few of the models. On the termies, I removed the DA iconography with a hobby knife and covered "messy" spots with BT bits and crusader seals. I chopped the sword hand off and replaced it with the PF from the BT upgrade sprue. On the bikes, I shaved off iconography and converted the robe rider to my biker castellan. I chopped off the chainsword rm and replaced it with the sword arm from the BT upgrade sprue to make a power weapon and give him a weapon chained to his wrist
