Don't know if he'll drop by to post here, but Lorenzen's just started some Lamenters and even in it's early WIP stages his Malakim Phoros is looking special. Thread's up in the WIP section, well worth a look.

 

Thanks for the heads up. I'll drop him a line in that thread.

I'm working on Dante next. Here are a few I like:

This is actually my mini. :)

I bought it off the artist last year. I have since magnetized the wings so I can take them off and put them on depending upon my mood.

How do you magnetise the wings. I would be extremely happy if you could tel me size of magnets used etc..

I'm visiting family's his weekend, but will be happy to share the magnet sizes, etc as post photos tomorrow when I get home. It was really easy, and I can tell you I picked out the smallest magnets I could get. But like I said I will post specifics tomorrow.

He posts on here under that name, too. Fairly-regularly updates a thread in the WIP section with both new work and throwback Thursday models. Well worth a look.

I love this thread, but it's making it very hard to stay focused on getting my half finished existing stuff to the finish line when all I want to do is kitbash HQs.

As promised here are the tools and magnet size I used:

I snipped a small part of the wing off and carefully glued a magnet to it:

Here is where I bored a small hole and glued the magnets to the model (I have to touch up the model still):

Here he is with and without the wings (excuse the lighting and focus):

It was important to me that he had a reguler jump pack and a normal inferno pistol from the dc box so he looked as much like the original as possible.

Not a big conversion, but I gave the Sanguinary Priest a Jump Pack, and magnetized him, giving him a yellowish power sword (to represent Valour's Edge) and a Bolt Pistol as an alternate set of wargear:

Yeah, I usually magnetize the arms with 2x2mm on both sides, but on the wrists it was too risky - I didn't want to destroy the whole wrist - and I used a 2x1. It works fine, although I wouldn't pick up the model by the calice/sword...
