Ok, I didn't like some other tutorials that made you spend hours working on one pack. so I made my own using parts from other miniatures. All work was done in the space of 10 minutes.
These are quick and easy Pre-Heresy jump-packs.
Items needed, just two.
The turbofans themselves are from a miniature called a "Yasha VTOL" from the Mechwarrior line of Collectible Miniatures Games, you can look around on
MWRealms.com or Ebay for them. (Don't worry they are cheap....probably less then .50 each)
First thing is first separate the exhausts from the backpack and the Turbofans from the VTOL
next you'll want to clip off the small wings on the fans, if you dig in deep then fill it in with greenstuff.
Put some kind of spacer (plasticard for most people, I used some extra parts from other Mechwarrior models) to where the ports used to be
Then simply glue the fans on and there you go, cheap simple jumppacks in 10 minutes flat. Here's some blue tacked pictures of what it would look like together
