Yum yum!!!

Dinner time!!   Mmm... yummy lizards!

We have the first of three re-roll markers for the Slime Bay Packers.

These little guys are having a lot of fun... but someone is having less fun.

Elves next, since they stay crunchy in milk!

Toasty

Here are some converted Incinerator Grey Knights that I did a while back.  I took the regular space marine flamers and reworked things a little.

It was not all that difficult to make that change.  At the time, all you had was the solid pewter versions, so it was nice to have something different!

These also had more action to the poses.

I don't remember exactly what I did ( I could not find the WIP's for these two), but it was mostly green stuff and plastic rod.

Enjoy!

These snails are not tasty...

Time for some group shots.  Even now, the team is way too big to fit in one photo.  So here we have the Chaos Warriors.  And a buddy.

Once again, I didn't do the conversions... my job was painting :-)

These guys are pretty huge.  The bases are 30mm, so that gives you an idea.

Each one is quite unique.  I tried very hard to paint each one differently as well.

Also, I wanted to match the previous batches of rotters and pestigors.  There was less exposed skin on these guys... plus you have to factor in the shells.

Still, they do look neat all together like this!

Beware of Slime Bay!

Next up is a big batch of group shots of the rotters!

This thing is getting pretty heavy...

While I have been talking over and over again about the various colors I have been using on the sword blades for all the SE-NMM, let's not lose sight of all the fun on the skin colors.

There is only the faces and hands, but it has been important to make sure that it does not get too warm, or too pink.  I have had to mix in enough of the blueish grays to push it a bit towards the green.

This will keep the skin colors from getting 'lost' among all the nearby yellow.

In addition, the overhanging black hats determined this line of coloration.  Not only would the faces be in more shadow than usual, the skin would be reflecting those colors to some degree, much like your face reflects the color of the shirt you are wearing.

Think of that the next time you get dressed in the morning! :-)

The third time around...

OK, the last of the Marneus conversions, this time with some WIP images.

These give you a decent idea of where green stuff and brown stuff was used, etc.

The helmet was made by cutting away part of it so that I could create that Grey Knight shape.

Even more plastic bits were used on this version.

At last, some paint!

Each one of these had a very different personality.

As I looked at this one more closely, I can see that I had to replace the wax parts of the purity seals as well.  I had lots of Ultramarine symbols to get rid of!!!

Just like the other versions, this one weighed a ton.

Views from above...

More squigglers

Sorry about how that sounds :-)  Been a long day.  When I was assembling these, it did not occur to me right away that an awful lot of the weapon arm sets on these figures had the squiggly swords.

Now that I have done a half a dozen of them, it is a bit easier, but there was definitely a challenge involved.  

I suppose it's all for the best to have such a challenge, and evolve the technique a bit int the process. :-)

More fun with Marneus.

Remember when I said I had sliced and diced that very solid and very pewter Marneus Calgar figure for 3 different conversions?  Here is the second one!

I do like the way it turned out though.  Lots of bits, lots of pinning, lots of green stuff (which is almost entirely hidden.  I don't have the WIP images of this (probably because I was also trying to smash my face into a wall at the same time!)

I think the next one does have WIP images of the converting process.

A close up of the base...
