Hello

This is the project log for my small DKOK project. I have now converted 16 models and I would normally put them in a drawer at this point and forget about them – instead I am posting them up here to shame me into finishing them off J

Conversions:

I have a platoon of Forgeworld DKOK gorgon troopers to separate out and repair. To eke out the small number of troopers, I will be using other GW and third part bodies and parts to build the specialist troops.

I have made two push molds of DKOK parts to help with the conversion for this project – one of the standard DKOK trooper head and one of the DKOK backpack. It goes without saying that I am using these parts to help with conversions for my personal use only!

Background

The setting is set in my own personal corner of the Dark Imperium here:

Links

The army will be the Kolonial Death Korps. Like the Baran Siege Masters, they hail from a colony founded by DKOK veterans and raise IG regiments in the style of their forebears.

Combat Engineers:



SOTR US Infantry bodies; shotguns converted from Cadian lasguns.

The heads are a bit big (my casts are about 20% bigger than the FW original). I did have some metal pig iron heads attached to start with, but decided to switch over to the DKOK heads. I’ll give it some time – if they are too bobble-headed I might switch back.

JagdKommandos (Grenadiers):



GW dark elf spearman bodies; converted cadian lasguns and arms.

C&C please – I’m aiming to prime these this weekend J
