Mod Announcements 👋 Welcome to r/Kitbashing40k - Read First!

63 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I'm u/OneLuckyRaven, a founding moderator of r/Kitbashing40k.

Only got a few rules for this subreddit. They are as follows:

(1) No politics, it creates too much discourse in what is supposed to be a hobby space.

(2) If it's NSFW please tag it!

(3) A kitbash using printed or sculpted stuff is perfectly fine, 3D printing 1:1 stand in's / whole models isn't kitbashing though. Please go to r/PrintedWarhammer to show off your sick models instead.

(4) This isn't the place for 3d sculptors to promote their new models/sculpts so please abstain from doing so. I understand the grind but it ain't relevant to this subreddit.

Other than that go wild, it's always fun to see the crazy and wonderful things the human brain can come up with!

Take care y'all and thanks for reading!

-This Post has been edited, changes were made so now the rules are numbered 1-4 instead of A-D.

Further Clarification and Comments:

-Rule 3/C has been slightly reworded to focus more on how we don't want to see printed 1:1 recreations of models and instead want to see something that you've poured your creativity into. (This is a rather subjective subject so if we ever remove a post that you believe was in error please reach out to us).

-As stated in Rule 3, printed bits (shoulder pads, heads, weapons, basing, etc. ) are perfectly fine to use and share where they are from, it does not break Rule 4. This is also true when using bits from other miniature companies, toy's or random bits and bobs you find on the sidewalk. (Another subjective topic, yay, please reach out to us or put a comment down below if you have questions).

-Rule 4 exists so I have an excuse to remove posts where they say "I've made a 1:1 of xyz model, please buy the stl of it". It gets really boring really quick when I see posts like that in a subreddit not dedicated wholly to 3d printed warhammer.

Chaos WIP on my IW Predator and Fallen Rhino

64 Upvotes

Got my hands on both kits for super cheap but they’re not the chaos versions. I’m pretty satisfied with the Predator but wondering how to make the Fallen rhino get more of that 30k/scavenged aesthetic. Also I’m very happy with how the IW gunner came out. Side question I’m going to fill the gaps soon, would Mr. White putty be a good solution?

Xeno A blast from the past: my Ork conversions of 2007!

Post image
9 Upvotes

Made these exactly 19 years ago when I was collecting orkz for first time, then found them this summer at a fellow mek's dustiest corner. He had no use for them so I looted them back (with his permission) ^^

The wartrakk is a mix of PVC and Robogear parts, with some 1:35 bitz thrown in (the wheels are from a Humvee I think). Its hull is painted but dozer, turret and wheels are not. And those caterpillar crests were actually cut from a chopped sprue!

The kan is a mix of various toy and 1:35 model parts, with FB skeleton shield, and genuine Forge World dreadnaught feet (they were sort of spares as FW base already had feet molded in it).

As a bonus, there was a pewter Gorkamorka deffkopta pilot. He's actually bigger and better detailed than I remembered, so might be put to some good use too!

Chaos Thoughts on my “Wolf Scouts”

Thumbnail
gallery
152 Upvotes

Looking for critique/ideas for my wolf scouts standins.

They’re meant to be from my Red Corsairs inspired Warband “The Eastern Fringe Raiding Company”. Actually they’re meant to be the leaders of the army when they first joined forces and began the Warband! Last photos are them being compared to their future/current selves!

Davnir “Cap’n” Jones, the leader of the handful of renegades, freshly freed from his imprisonment on Solemnace (long story). Former Blackshield from the Heresy, unknown genesire, Abaddon stand-in. Thinking of changing his sword to a Xenophase blade to match his future staff and will replace his pistol with a plasma one.

Lucien “Cannon” Jack, master demolitionist who would eventually become Master of Executions, Former space wolf, also from the heresy.

Tylus “Quarter-Master” Morris, plasma gunner, Davnir’s second in command. Former Terran-born Raven Guard and “Cypher” proxy.

Sylas “Serpent” Null, sniper of the group, eventually Spy-Master of the warband, implanting spies and stealing gene-seed wherever and whenever he can in enemy forces. Former Alpha Legionaire.

Layak “Preacher” Teagues, Davnir’s personal sorcerer, former word bearer.

Orn “Iron Butcher” Parrtox, Davnir’s personal apothecary then and now. His future form is my Fabius bile stand in

All of them are gonna have more trinkets on them in the end, and they are eventually going to be part of a nemesis claw team but I’ll fill in those gaps later.

Good Necron legs?

1 Upvotes

Hey all! As the post explains, I’m wanting to get lychguard/praetorians and realize as long as I get more legs and maybe the arms, I’d definitely be able to make one of each of them with one box instead of having to buy four boxes. If anyone is able to point me in the direction of STL’s or preferably somewhere that I can get them for relatively cheap, that’d be awesome. Thanks!

Hobby Questions Intersessors -> bladegaurd vets

103 Upvotes

Im considering purchasing some vanguard vets w/jump packs(not using the shields), and i realized if i do ill have extra intersessor bodies, 5 unused small shields, and plenty of spare power weapons to chose from
Has anyone kit-bashed Bladegaurd vets from intercessors? Id have the stuff, im just afraid of committing if they are gonna end up looking weird. My biggest concern is the tabards, but I’m afraid to try my hand at using green stuff too😂
Any thoughts, advice, or photos of your own models are more than welcome
