Weapons for IG an SM - conversions

1291 Views 15 Replies 7 Participants Last post by  MAVERIK
Hey everyone,

I've created a bunch of weapons mods for IG and SM characters. I know the premise has been done before, but I just wanted to share some of my creations. Its posted in the WH40K - IG section of the gallery on LO. CHeck 'em out, let me know what you think. That's not all of the one's I've made, but since they are part of a model I hope to enter in a Games Day contest, I didn't want to show them off just yet.

SO far I've mimiked a minigun, AK47 and family, H&K 93 with Grenade Launcher, and the OCIW. I would love to make more style mods, but am looking for suggestions.

Thanks!!

Very cool.

You should consider posting a "how to" guide showing how you made your weapons :).
Someone just inspired my next veteran squad... your pimped out hardware is awesome!:)
Thanks guys! I'm glad you like the weps. I love doing these kinds of conversions! somtimes its a real bugger with the minute detail bits and such. Addoran - I'd love to do a "how to", but I'm not to sure about using pics and graphics from GW for reasons of copyrights and things. I'll think on it some more, and hopefully get back to you guys on that! Styker23 - what kind of Vet Squad are you considering? I'd love to hear more!
Astroth - I love the Tau bits, I've used more than I've shown in other weaps mods, but as I stated previously, I didn't show them all.
I may rethink that though. Thanks again to all. I hope these have inspired you in some way - that's my goal as a WH40K player! I've been inspiried by others - and I just want to do the same for you!
well i dont think you could be charged for anything by GW they even make you convert etc. im waiting for that how to guide so i can start a IG army in the grim darkness of the far future
Wow! Great work!
I would aslo want a tutorial for this :yes:
ok, here's what I'll do - I will work on a how to, hopefully have it done as a .doc file with pics, in about a week or so (sorry, I have a daytime job, LOL!). I'll post a note on this thread. Anybody wishing to get a copy of the how to should private contact me with an email address. I'll be sending the .doc file from a hotmail account. OR if anyone has any other suggestions, let me know! Thanks guys!
The Lasgun on the bottom right. I'd like to put in an order for ohhhhh, 120 of them? How much you charge? :)

You mean the OICW? ;)

Well, I actually meant the little plastic one, but sure I'll take a real one. Besides, I work for Military Intelligence, you don't think I've seen one or two nifty guns? I've seen guns that none of you will see for another ten years.... IF. ;)
Maverik- I'll be doing a hard-bitten Imperial Fist Veteran squad, should look good with some converted Boltguns. Might try to make them look like H&K G36Ks, also I've got a crazy idea about making an M60 instead of a heavy bolter. It would look badass, however, it may be a tad difficult, but hell, it would look sweet! Thanks again!:)
man, those conversions are great!

i'm developing some IG conversions based on WWI/WW2, and i was trying to design some conversions of a classical mauser with a sight to make some snipers, and KAR rifles for veterans, but i'm still documenting.
Hi Everyone,

I have completed a conversion guide as a .doc file. I am willing to email it to who would like it. If you have already contacted me, I have already emailed it out. I sent it via a hotmail account. You should get it in a day or so. If you don't let me know. If anyone else would like a copy, private message me with your email addy and I'll send it out within 24-48 hours. I only ask that you share it with others who want to make conversions and that you give credit where credit is due. Enjoy!

Stryker23 and Acrtorius Lensk, Goodluck to both of you on your conversions. I wish you both well. Stryker23, I know the feeling about being limited to a HB. An M60 would be a sweet conversion - I thought about it a bit and came to the conclusion that a mod for an m60 would probably look like a larger bolter (perhaps lengthened), with a larger ammo feed (belt or box fed), a butt (perhaps tau pulse rifle butt) and a carry handle - just a thought. If you do make a conversion please let us know! I'd love to see it.

Arctorius, Good luck on the WWII mods. A bolt action lasgun would be incredible to see! It can be done! When you do it, let us know. I'd love to see it!
