Thanks to Doghouse posting a pick of one of the old style backpacks in his Warseer Project Log, I managed to improve on the backpacks of the MK V conversions I’ve been working on. Here’s the first, a definite improvement over those issued to the last squad. This one will be used to create a small greenstuff press mold.

I thought I’d begin by posting images of the first actual scale conversions I did. If you’ve seen these before them before just skip to the next post

Sorry no “work in progress” shots of these. Also whenever the Lamenter Space Marine (with the plasma gun) shows up repeatedly in any shot he’s there for size comparison purposes. Expect to see him on a regular basis.

These were my first actual scale conversions. I used the trimmed down terminator arms on these models. The trims on the pads were done with plasticard. Overall I was thrilled they turned out so well.
