Saturnine conversions and ideas

[Mr Farson]

Following on in the grand old tradition of the calth conversion thread let's have a new one for Saturnine!

 

Post up your conversions and kitbashes from the Saturnine box.

 

 

Mine are pretty simple, arms from the iron hand praetor slapped onto the MK2 centurion and the mechahendrites from the same model mounted to the praetors back

I assumed from that one passage in that one novel ) that apparently references these Termies in the HH novels and a piece of art (not sure if it was official or fan made) that Saturnine Terminators would have some sort of heavy weapon mounted between the tops of the pauldrons. Am I the only one that’s slightly disappointed that they don’t…?

That's a Salamanders variant of the suit that we might still see, as a conversion supported by the Journals, or maybe as a resin upgrade or something. I wouldn't write it off, but I also wouldn't necessarily expect it soon either, even though Salamanders are functioning as one of this edition's poster boys. We don't know if/when they'll get back to legion specific stuff and seem focused on filling in the plastic range at the moment. I somewhat expect we'll finally see Salamanders and Iron Warrior Praetors in the next year or so, though, but that's just me guessing.

But yeah, brilliant conversions just using bits from that IH Praetor. They seem like a great Legion to do with the Saturnine box 

It's going to be a bit before I get to my Saturnine box but I'm planning on removing the Saturnine aquilae and Death Guarding them up a bit with maybe some additional chest plating and maybe some censers/emitters/vents. I think I'll also source a fist from somewhere for my Centurion mini, and use the extra wound and Eternal Warrior (2) from the Unnatural Resilience Prime Advantage to hopefully weather any faster attacks to deliver his punches.
