Bung Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 Just a simple question, does someone here have experience with the plastic contemptor dread from the Battle of Calth box amd Forgeworld weapons? Do the FW weapons fit the plastic dread easily or is it a labor intensive conversion? Or am i better of getting FW contemptor bodies?

Jukkiz Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 as Warhammer TV has shown us, (not too long ago too) it´s not too hard, though it depends how much you are willing to converthttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BNcyn7Sr7kA Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/353607-contemptor-dread-and-fw-weapons/#findComment-5248355 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grotsmasha Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 It is super straight forward, when cut the gun arms have a perfect ledge for magnets, but fist shoulder does not, I didn't bother trimming the FW shoulder parts as I wanted them to still be compatible with my resin contemptors, Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/353607-contemptor-dread-and-fw-weapons/#findComment-5248387 Share on other sites More sharing options...
sarabando Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 came here to post but Grotsmasha has hit the nail on the head perfectly. It is super easy to do, i love magnatising minis now.

Bung Posted February 6, 2019 Author Share Posted February 6, 2019 @Grotsmasha Thank you, thats more info than i needed.
