Hand's up all of those who have cycled 32 miles today, done the shopping, cleaned the kitched and just cooked tea and done the washing up?...

Don't forget, "helped idiots who can't count and think it's OK to bother me for something that I had offered to do for someone else" in there too (for which, obviously, I'm hugely grateful).

These are looking spectacular; I have no helpful commentary to add, but me and Son No. 1 have been going "wow" at them for some time. Really nice work.

No problems, just couldn't remember wtf I'd said I had from quite a while ago. ;)

Also it appears that I've managed to throw away the set of NVG's lovingly carved from the scout head before cutting it off and replacing with the pigiron helmet. ARSE!!!

Well basedcoated: (cheating really but a nice olive drab acrylic paint out of a can for the armour).

Copplestone Jungle troopers with helmet/head swops, that's it.







Another five still to build oh and then onto the cadians (about 15 on the go) and the warthogs, then paint them all oh and the Pig Iron APC.

I really like your conversions - particularly like the copplestone with PI helmets. Can't wait to see some of them painted.

Nice inspiring head swaps, I might just have to copy them  :-* :-* :-*

Hey....any new news on this front?

Halo Reach is just around the corner.

Very inspired thread.  I'd love to build a small squad of Helljumpers.

Definitely one that is too good to be forgotten!

I stumbled across a nice Halo Warthog I had (albeit, mine is the 'heroclix' thingy) and that inspired a search.

Well before Halo Reach was the three weeks of bliss that was Halo Reach Beata.... which rocked! :D

Well suffice to say there is an update, quite a big update really but it will need to wait a month or so.... it will be worth it though! ;)

Obscenely good idea Commander. They are looking great. Tempted to copy but I always seem to stab myself when cutting off heads.

Fear is a poor excuse for avoiding creativity.
