Archangelus Posted July 16, 2006 Share Posted July 16, 2006 These are some fantastic Salamanders you got there! I like the lizard crest on top of the helmets. Very nice!

Brother Renn Posted July 16, 2006 Share Posted July 16, 2006 The pic is a little distant, but from what I can tell, they look very good. I like the conversion of Sicarius. Very nicely done. Any chance of some closeups? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/91852-salamanders-sicarius-conversion/#findComment-1055822 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Techmarine Dannyl Posted July 16, 2006 Share Posted July 16, 2006 As a former salamanders collecter I am currently staring lovingly at your models, beautifully done mate really liking the conversions. As already stated would be great to see some close-ups.

Rogue Trader Posted July 16, 2006 Share Posted July 16, 2006 Very nice :) Amazing how a little work and a head swap can make an awful mini like Sicarius into a nice mini like yours...

T14 Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 fantastic take on firedrake imagery. :lol: The sallies and black dragon chapters are blessed by the WHFB lizardmen and their bitzbox potential.

Brother Magnus Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 marvelous :lol: I'm working on a similar idea but for space wolves, gonna have me a bloody big wolf pelt instead of the tabard...alas in my 'big move' all my tools and greenstuff went missing so I'm sat at my desk with a sicarius model with no right shoulder pad and a mangled tabard *cry* oh well. I love the paintjob, and the helmet is also sweet as. 10/10 Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/91852-salamanders-sicarius-conversion/#findComment-1056473 Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Angelus Sanctus Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 Excellent work, not just on the Sicarius conversion, but the rest of the Command squad, top quality minis, well done :D.

Archangelus Posted July 18, 2006 Share Posted July 18, 2006 Now im almost tempted to get a Sicarius model just to model into the AotL... That's the only purpose for the Sicarius model's existence, to be a base for conversions. :( Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/91852-salamanders-sicarius-conversion/#findComment-1057483 Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChaplainDan Posted July 19, 2006 Author Share Posted July 19, 2006 How did you do the head swap? I really like it. I plan to use that on my hq. Got a picture here: http://www.slightlyodd.co.uk/sicconv4.jpg Basically, remove the top of the marine helmet, take the open mouthed Lizardman head and cut it under the jaw, stick on the top of the marine's head and GS in the gaps :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/91852-salamanders-sicarius-conversion/#findComment-1058205 Share on other sites More sharing options...
