Lets start this instalment with something simple, clean and crisp. You could mistake this fantastic Sternguard Veteran for one of 'Eavy Metal's own, it looks straight out of the Codex in all the best ways. Absolutely Guilliman approved.

And then at the complete opposite end of the scale... damn. A strikingly gory spectacle, managing to look regal and horrific in equal measure, feminine without slapping a pair of robo-tiddies on her. Nightmarish in the best ways.

Now this is shiny and chrome! Or at least rusty and ded spikey. A classic conversion idea brought to life spectacularly with a modern paintjob and seamless conversion work.

Keeping up the Ork-y energy, another really cool conversion that really shows off the power of perspective when it comes to modelling. From the angle of the average gaming table this Warchanter is really gonna stand out from such a simple but effective piece of remodelling.

By the Emperor what the hell is that. It's wonderful don't get us wrong, a quintessentially Blanchitsu figure but damn, we'd be watching it from the corner of our eye at all times. Disgustingly cool.
