how would you convert a missile or autocannon scout? i know a model has or will be released, but i need one now for an up comming game. BTW, if there is a model could you direct me to it? if this topic has come up before, im sorry. search wasnt working.

I would suggest a Scout with Bolter, clip, saw, and file away all the Bolter and Arm Metal. Select the Normal Marine Rocket Launcher, clip all the normal Components to make it except the Shoulder Pads. Do a little Glueing and Green-Stuff work and your there.

Autocannon scouts are the easiest to convert, just take a heavy bolter scout and put on a big barrel. It's a pretty common conversion.

For a missile launcher I recommend a bolt pistol armed scout, not a bolter armed. Otherwise you can do as Space Cow suggested.
You could also try using a plastic cadian rocket launcher if you can get one.

or you could get hold of a imp guard rocket, it has the shoulder pad and everything, just cut it to the desired length.
