Frater Cornelius Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 Having entered yet another hobby crisis, I have some free time. I decided to help out two kids from my local GW store. They do not have the cash to buy Ezekiel but they both have one spare Company Master each. I decided to give them an early Christmas present and turn both CM into Zeke. Heck, if I can not be happy at least I can make sure these kids can be happy their hobby This will be a small mini-log. Shouldn't last more than a week. Stay tuned Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/316412-ezekiel-conversion-mini-log/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teetengee Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 I am interested. Have any particular plans for this? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/316412-ezekiel-conversion-mini-log/#findComment-4234152 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frater Cornelius Posted November 24, 2015 Author Share Posted November 24, 2015 Yes. I will replace the sword blade with a GK sword blade to make it more stable. The original one is just way to easy to bend. Replace the head with a regular DA hood. Use Green Stuff for the breather mask and all the cables will be made from GS as well. Remove the Bolter and add the book instead and that is it. Maybe a few other bits and possibly remove the wing on the shoulder as well. I will address those details as I go along.

IanSturrock Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 This is a really cool idea. I'm looking forward to seeing the conversions, and looking forward even more to hearing how delight the kids are! This should give them an idea of what can be done with converting, too. Nice one.

Frater Cornelius Posted November 25, 2015 Author Share Posted November 25, 2015 First step done, cleaned the models of the blades, heads and Bolters. Now I am searching for bits. Next step will be finding heads with respirators and adding green stuff hoods to them. Hidden Content http://i.imgur.com/selbTNA.jpg  Also, sorry for the bad quality on this image. I did not really get the appropriate lighting for this first step. Will be better next time.

Bryan Blaire Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 Unfortunately I don't know know of any respirator + bionic eye heads that exist for Marines, possibly going to have to do some fiddly shaving work to attach the top of a head with a bionic eye to a shaved down to the respirator bottom. Â Looks good so far! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/316412-ezekiel-conversion-mini-log/#findComment-4236045 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Rage Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 The flamer helmet in the tactical box? ah wait that's just the respirator Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/316412-ezekiel-conversion-mini-log/#findComment-4236108 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leonaides Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 But presumably a bit easier to just do a SG sausage onto an existing respirator face, flatten/square it up and put a disk on for the eye than crating the whole shebang onto a bare head?

Â Looks good so far! Â I solved the problem. I took the GK Paladin Sergeant head and attached an IG Commander respirator. The bionic eye is on the wrong side, but not like it matters. I will attach the respirators tonight or some time tomorrow. Then the hood. Swords and books, both from the GK Paladin box, are prepared as well.

Malakai Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 The Librarian in DV set looks like someone started out thinking they were sculpting an updated Ezekiel. He has a bionic eye, a book (of secrets?) and keys. I was just looking at that model yesterday. He's "cheap as chips" as the Brits say. I think I saw him for like $3 US on ebay.

dalleron Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 It's totes possible that the DV characters are Azrael and Ezekiel. There's way too much gear look for it to be coincidental. Would still need a jawa for the helmet bearer to be 100% accurate.

Malakai Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 Yeah I'm planning on buying another one of those Company Masters off ebay and converting him. He's too nice of a model and really cheap not to have one to tinker around with.
