Augelmir Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 Probably a stupid question to most of you but do you guys have any ideas where to get extra plasma and Melta Gun bits for guard? Cant find any sprues with extra bits on the GW site. Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
our_baz Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 CCS/PCS boxed sets. Online bits purveyors (e.g. bits and kits, bitz barn etc). Or convert marine melta / plasma weapons onto guardsmen. Hope that helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarriorFish Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 Marines have plenty and you can do weapon swaps easily enough, so find a Marine player to trade some bits with :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Augelmir Posted October 29, 2014 Author Share Posted October 29, 2014 Alright thanks fellas! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wulfgar hammerfist Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 I am working on a cheap conversion. Once I get it finished I'll post a pic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kierdale Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 The Gw site has packs of five plasma guns or five melta guns, albeit with marine right hands attached. They're finecast so the hands can easily be cut off. I always seem to have a stockpile of unused plasma pistols and I've seen some nicely made plasma guns from pistol bitz added onto boltgun bodies (I'm sure you could do the same with a lasgun body and a bit of work).

wulfgar hammerfist Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 So here is my cheap meltagun converson. I used a piece of the cam that is used to make necklaces and another little metal ring that is also used in necklace making. I got a box of 50 cams and 50 rings for about $5USD at Michael's. The cam comes in two pieces and I just used the shorter of the two pieces as the other half has a long stem on it. I can provide a pic if there is interest. http://i602.photobucket.com/albums/tt103/crouching_lictor/meltagun.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Augelmir Posted October 30, 2014 Author Share Posted October 30, 2014 That is a great idea! Well done :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elmo Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 You could use Wulfgar's idea but instead of a lasgun as the base, use one of the many flamers we all seem to have left over. It will make it more distinctive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wulfgar hammerfist Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 That is a good idea Elmo. I'll try that out next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elmo Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 I will look forward to seeing it ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarriorFish Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 I think that would be cool, the sling mounted weaponry is very "Guard" :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoffeeGrunt Posted October 31, 2014 Share Posted October 31, 2014 Might try that idea some time. I ended up using Marine parts for some of my Meltas and Bolters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
