Tyrannocyte conversion ideas!

[macdaddyt]

Hey guys! Gonna try to convert my own tyrannocytes (plan on buying 1 from GW and converting 3) and was wondering about ideas you had to convert/scratch build the new pods! I'm thinking getting Foam eggs and then using putty to make tentacles/carapace and I got bitz out the wazoo!

Thanks!

well, to be honest you will need a buttload of greenstuff for tentacles. The stubby arms from the Mawloc would work for the grabby bits at the top...deathspitters left over from Hive Tyrants for the guns...Good luck with the base but yeah, wouldn't be too hard.

I started last night on a scratch built model. I bought a polystyrene egg and covered a 1/5th segment in a thin layer of green stuff. My plan is to then cast this 5 times, and then make a bit for the carapace, which again I will cast five times. I have got a thought that it might end up looking shite, but hey ho, that's what it's all about right?

Hmmm keep me updated on that carapace! I'm still tryng to figure out how to make one out of my stuff! Thinking of getting some trygon carapaces off of the interwebs.

The carnifex kit comes with a bunch of extra armor carapace pieces. I bet those would look sweet
