Blank Dave Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 Has anyone here used skaven bits for converting? I'm looking for advice/considerations before jumping head long into something like this. I've seen pictures of them so I know people have done them, and between SWs and CSM bodies it should look good. Quick add on: I've got loads of clan rats and gutter runners from 3rd ed, so they do have the separate heads and tails.

Stoic Raptor Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 We made "Space Skaven" back in the 2nd Edition days, when they had the old WHFB regiment boxes. But I'm not sure this forum is really the place to discuss Xenos filth. :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/332640-skaven-conversions/#findComment-4702231 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryan Blaire Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 If they are modeled Chaos Marines and there is conversion work done to make them suitably "40K-ified" through conversions, they'd be acceptable here. Plus, more mutated Ratlings as Chaos followers. Blank Dave, not entirely sure what advice you are looking for, but head swaps, weapon swaps to 40K weapons, rat tails sneaking out of armor, ominous green glows from eyes and power packs, little rats running around Marine feet, etc., all seem to be possible go-TOs for that.

Well, I'm thinking on how to get the heads to fit right on a marine torso. Build up the neck and pop the head on, or try to her the marine a little hunched over to get the rattier posture.

Dagoth Ur Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 What I have been doing for the past few weeks is use the Genestealer Cult Hybrids and put some skaven heads on them and convert up some cultist/skaven/scion arms to make use of them as Mutant cultists. Not really Chaos Space Marines, but I think the size would just fit about right for CSM stand-ins :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/332640-skaven-conversions/#findComment-4702309 Share on other sites More sharing options...
