| Thanks GAR. I love this model and hopefully I can do a paint job to justify it. The really tricky bit will be setting the perspex window into the painted sail without making a mess of either. Cheers. Here is the main thread for the challenge, and here is my WIP pic again: _________________ Mod Squad Forum rules, please read ................. or else we release the Khymerae!The Serpents' Breath - the Dark Eldar corsair scourge Hive Fleet Void Riven & WIP thread | |

| I love this conversion!
I could see these being used as "counts as venoms" for a hellion based army. | |

I could see these being used as "counts as venoms" for a hellion based army. Thank you. Hmmm, that's a very clever idea! I already replaced the original gun barrels with the slightly larger ones from regular splinter rifles, could just as easily do the same with splinter cannon barrels. I have also been toying with the idea of a whole squad of aether surfers, after someone else did another one that's more compact, and a bit easier to put together I think. They would look great on the tabletop. Surfin' Venoms AND Hellions? Santa definitely needs to refill my bitz box! _________________ Mod Squad Forum rules, please read ................. or else we release the Khymerae!The Serpents' Breath - the Dark Eldar corsair scourge Hive Fleet Void Riven & WIP thread | |

| Really, really original skyboard that actually looks like it works, I can just imagine him gliding down through the storm laden clouds to swoop on his horrified prey.
I demand close ups so that I can see the Baron himself better. _________________ Sky Serpent - Drukhari 40k My Facebook blog, follow for battle reports, tactics, painting and conversions | |

| I'm maybe 2/3 done, might post an update in a day or two. Taking my sweet time, for once.
But I have come to realise that the one thing I hate far above all else in this hobby is blending sails. You would think it wouldn't be that hard, with the relatively large, flat surface, and that washes would also help a lot, but I manage to faff around for ever doing this every single time and it never looks smooth.

| Not sure how I missed the finished pics. Great stuff! The paint job really brings out all of the awesome conversion work.
