Genestealer Cult (conversions) The next batch WIP: 21/12
« on: December 16, 2018, 08:24:45 PM »
I have always wanted to make a Genestealer Cult since they were first introduced back in the 80's but have never quite got around to it.

I got hold of some Hybrid heads from the new plastics last week so decided it was high time to have a crack at it, so here goes.

As I want to do something a little different with their 'look' I have opted to chop up a few Blind Beggar models (and one LAM miniature) to form the basis of them, mostly just head swaps with a few different weapons grafted on.

The head swaps were finished earlier so I quickly took this quick shot before finishing off the GS work to tidy them up a bit....



More later as the GS work and weapons are now done and they have been attacked with a brush a little as well.

Thanks, chaps.
They are coloured-in a little bit so far which shows the figures a little better.
I will take a shot of them so far later and post it.

Now.....about a limo......? ;)

 lol
I should have seen that coming.....

Not started on the 'limo' yet, but I have a plan for the transport.

Looking good.

Thank you.
 :)



And finished....








Pretty happy with them as they only took 48 hours from 'the idea' to finishing them.
I should be getting my hands on a few more Stealer Hybrid heads tomorrow, so I shall be adding a few more over the holiday period.
 :D

Thanks, chaps.
 :)

They do not stand too much scrutiny as close ups, but getting a faction table-ready in that quick a period was well worth it.
And there are a few more planned, just waiting to see how many Stealer heads my contact can come up with....
