Trokair Posted December 26, 2022 Share Posted December 26, 2022 So after looking through options I decided I will attempt to convert an Enginseer for my 7th Rhûnish Dragoons. Starting point is an old captain who is a little worse for wear and AdMech leftover bits. After trying a few bits to see what could work I found the backpack and servo arm of a Datasmith, and that seemed the easier way forward. I did toy with a smaller back pack and just adding the servo arm, but it never quite sat right while blue-taking it together.

And yeah, the 5 strings thing is a bit goofy but they did a really good job on the tuning machines so I think that makes up for it Edited December 27, 2022 by andes Slave to Darkness 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for the guitar, yeah thats pretty well done actually so it does make up for it, it only wrinkles my brain as Im a guitarist. Now I know how people who have served as tankers feel when they see a new tank kit that wouldnt work in reality. ++EDIT++ Just had a good look at the guitar, the fact it has the toggle switch for the pickups, volume knob, locking nut on the neck and a cable jack, realistic bridge and actual screws holding the pickups in... Damn thats attention to detail, that Orks guitar is made to a higher standard than most Imperial tech.

Trokair Posted December 27, 2022 Share Posted December 27, 2022 Quick update. The gap between the backpack and the models back was not neat, so I used some greenstuff to fill out the space. It has cured over night, hopefully sufficiently. Spoiler WrathOfTheLion and Grotsmasha 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I have no chance of finishing it today... Yesterday just got away from me. I finished 2 shoulder pads and shin plates. I blame @Grotsmasha for forcing me to paint an Apothecary... Joking aside I barely got 1 hour painting. Plus side it was for 12 months of Hobby too so I have some days to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trokair was awarded the badge 'Boxing Day Bash 2022 Completed' Not going to have time to do any more on this guy, so that’s as good as it gets. I think he turned out ok as a colour scheme test. The grey metal verses silver doesn’t show up so good, but then he has more metal parts on him then the regular troopers will. The turquoise looks very washed out in the picture even though it looks fine in person, will see in the morning if I can get a better picture.

Cactus was awarded the badge 'Boxing Day Bash 2022 Completed' This hasty photo makes everything look orange, especially the 'animal hide' wrappings which I'm quite pleased with in reality. No time to do the base tonight, or fancy markings on the quills, or the Fistful of Dollars inspired poncho pattern. de Selby, andes, WrathOfTheLion and 6 others 9 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
