Oh wow, I actually have the exact same bike frame buried at the bottom of a parts box somewhere. It's an older piece, I think.

Sadly, I can't remember where I got it!

All is revealed in the main thread guys ;) (It's a old Void bike, I have another 2 currently) so I'll end up with at least three of these.

I had a double clear head still lingers, so I added him a head old glory, a beard and hair supplements and presto! zebulon spits a curse

Conversion thread, excellent! I love seeing what people make, and crazy about making conversions myself too.
That termibike is awesome and the original beaky into scifi chick is brilliant too.  So much good stuff here- I like the prehistoric megamammal converted from rhinos.. very nice!

here are a few I've done lately:

Skaven Deathroller for bloodbowl:


Some Dark Elf Blood Bowl players:


Been doing a lot of conversions for my current hobby project, the Quar of Phobos, for a VSF setting:
Scout walker before paint:

after paint:


and just finished a couple scout airships last night:


couple older items:

Skaven Dr. Strangelove:


Scratch-built sculpt of my take on Megalith for Hordes, I have several other rock guys as well, and hope to make more soon:

Hey LF,

You do some damn fine work. I am going to have to say i will need a daily dose of the madness that is your mind so keep em coming. I am loving the DE Bloodbowl players. Simple  but effective conversions. But seriously keep posting.
Also, do you have a blog, or forum or site you host other pics at?  :-)

Thanks Grimmnar!

I started a hobby blog a few weeks ago- finally got around to it after a couple years of thinking 'I should start a hobby blog' since I'm always looking at others' fun stuff... spread the wealth and all.

The Hobby Blog is here:  http://laughingferret.blogspot.com/
-it'll mostly have my personal projects but also some of the conversions & creations for clients.

My commission studio site is here: http://www.laughingferretstudio.com/
-it is mostly for the business stuff, but has a gallery & project section that I update and keep to have items I'm particularly proud of up for easy access viewing. 

a few blood bowl teams up the commission schedule is an all-converted multi-species Undead team that I'm looking forward to making.. should be some conversions to show from that, and I'll be making an Underworld team for myself soon.  speaking of, I've posted a lot on the Talk Fantasy Football site- the only forum where I don't go by Laughing Ferret: it's Pitch Invader over there.  :D

I did my first conversion ever to make a Mage Knight figure. I really like the original figure (Lylyth, a Privateer Press figure*), but the original has this godawful huge conehead instead of a face. So I ground it off and replaced it with some other-wise crappy MK figure's face, then tidied up the seam with a greenstuff headdress.

Please forgive the hilariously bad lighting. It was the least-awful means I had to get the contours to show up.





*Out of all the major minis manufacturers, I would say Hordes/Warmachine are by far the closest in overall visual theme to Mage Knight figures.

Nice.  I wouldn't have guessed it was a conversion if you hadn't said.
