choppers over catachan

hallo everyone,

just thought I'd let you in on my newest conversion (which hasn't started yet but will probably be done tomorrow if the second kit I need arrives).

basicly what I'm thinking is:
Troop carrying section of a valkyrie plus the front of a landspeeder =


I've already converted a lasgun to be a bit more 'm16' like so that'll have to get cast so I have enough.

I'm going to get hold of some M1 helmets and such from The Assault Group miniatures.

I've also got some WIP white scars that have been lieing arround for ages so I'll try and get some photos up!

Re: choppers over catachan

Right I don't like replying to myself but as I've actually been able to do some of this conversion I will.

First of all the seats from the valkyrie fit replace the land speeder space marines leg's really really well!


Took virtually no cutting what so ever other than to remove all the little attachment tags that the chairs had to fit into the valkyrie cockpit.





not looking particularly huey like at the moment but defenatly more modern chopper look to it than the valkyrie normally has.

cheers guys, didn't get much more done today but I've started the plasticard work to make the landspeeder front work more with the valk body. I'll get some pictures tomorrow after I've neatened it up a bit.

Re: choppers over catachan

will you be adding rotor blades or are you going for a more anti-grav or jump jet type idea?
