eh by keeping the goggled cybernetic eyes it kind of defeats the entire purpose of calling this grotsnik because he's a painboy and the model still reads as snikrot since that is literally his most defining feature, also the ammo backpack doesn't really work again more snikrot than grotsnik, really this just looks like snikrot with extrabits on him.

@tristanlee8495 Жыл бұрын

I don't know why but I initially mixed up Snikrot and Makari in my head and was absolutely baffled as to how you were going to pull this off.

I'd personally have placed the circular saw in place of the 'thumbs' on the powa klaw, to give the impression that the big 'finger' segment was meant to press victims into the blade. Awesome conversion, regardless!

Always love your ork conversions. Been meaning to make a batch of fung-orks for myself after seeing that conversion on your channel a while ago. Do you have any quick recommendations on how to add blast damage to terrain pieces? I'm worried about cutting into mine without a plan.

@PeteTheWargamer Жыл бұрын

I'm guessing you're talking about plastic terrain? The easiest way to get pock marks is to drill or dremel shallow holes, add a small amount of putty (greenstuff or milliput) and press it into the hole so it flares out around the edges. This helps to create the surface deformation and you can scratch in more jagged edges too.

A part of me wanted to create Ghoritch, or at least a version that looks like him, using the Daemon Prince kit. I also want to make a Burrowing Behemoth by using the Megaboss on a Maw-krusha kit, a Great Unclean one that is thinner instead of being bloated using the Daemon Prince kit (again, but only the head) and a kit that gives the dead but still alive kind of vibes, an Orruk Warclans version of the Orc Boar Chariots, and many other things like units both from Fantasy and Total War and kitbashes as well as new ones.
