Cheers folks

More please! It's great seeing these conversions.

Can't see anything else that a robot of the Team Rocket due to that R 

Apart from taht I'm just discovering your work, it's amazing. I saw a couple of 40k 54mm of Leadplague blog recently so I'm really happy to discover yours as well.

@Mellal - yeah, the 'R' is an interesting design addition!! I'm loving the Leadplague 54mm stuff too - lots of great figs.

Latest 54mm addition is an Inquisitor-scale ratling, converted from a classic Blood Bowl chas star player of all things!

The eyepatch is a great addition. Seems like a veteran but still lost in the storm, rattling way. Good job!

[tomrommel1]

very nice conversion

[DivisMal]

That‘s spot on! Never thought that a Chaos warrior would make such a great halfling, but it really does work greatly.

[axiom]

Thanks guys! The eyepatch was to try and pull the look of the head away from the source model, but it doubles up by adding a nice bit of back story too!

Next up is probably my favourite 54mm figure to date - an Inquisitor based on one of John Blanche's incredible concept sketches from The Inquisitor Sketchbook. The figure is an assemblage of different parts plus sculpting and a partly scratchbuilt bionic arm. Very pleased with the results!

That’s just awesome! And let me guess, all those plastic parts are standard „28mm“? It’s a nice benefit of the comically distorted heoirc scale of GW that these bits fit well with larger models.

[axiom]

Thanks DivisMal. Yep, all the plastic bits are "28mm". The knife in particular is from a pretty chunky model, so suits 54mm nicely.

Very cool conversion, I used to play a lot of inquisitor back in the days and have a lot of fond memories of it.

[Elk101]

That's superb, a real triumph!

[Mellal]

Woha 

You can be proud of yourself sir, challenge accomplished !

[axiom]

Thanks everyone, glad the Inquisitor hits the spot!

My latest figure is one that was originally conceived as a leader for a space slann army for 40k. I never got round to doing the army, but he's getting a new lease of life 20 years on because he fits into my current 54mm project.





The figure was converted for me by sculptor and Golden Demon winner Jeff Wilhelm. It's a massive source of embarrassment to me that it's taken this long to paint him up, but better late than never.

Great stuff!

A wonderful conversion and great paintjob.

I have the same mini, I once intended to use as a mystic or telepath in an Inquisitor's retinue, with a collar and chain held by an acolyte of sorts. I figured he'd be awesome as a captured Old One, even though the Imperials would be unaware of what he actually was.

I got him at the 2006 Games Day for this purpose, but alas; the idea was never realized. I still might get on with it at some point though...

And I find it fun to see how many larger 28mm miniatures actually fit into a 54mm project
