Default weapon modification

wanted to post a thread where we could explain how to modify current componets and bits we have into the weapons we need. for example

need a heavy bolter for a leman
have a cadian grenade launcher and vox

here is how to do it first lets position our peices so everyone knows what im talking about set the vox on the table so the antena are facing away from you and the grenade launcher barral away from you we can break the vox into three parts part one "the extras" these incluse both antenas the little piece between them the light and its post parts two and three well call top and bottom which are seperated by the crease in the middle of the vox

the grenade launcher can also be three peices back section (everything behind the big circle in the middle) the middle area (everything in frunt of the circlebut behind the ring in the middle of the barral) and the top ( everything else.)
you'll need to seperate the extras from the vox without cutting the post for the antena with the circle on it and then seperate the top from the bottom. all you need is the top through the rest away. just take the middle of the grenade launcheronce seperated glue it to the piece of the voc that had the round antena on it before.

now if you are like me and thought the lascannon would look scary on the frunt of your russ and sence decided it was not worth the points cut the barral off just ahead of the ridges and put the heavy bolter on the frunt of that. Now I know it does not look perfect but for just being extra bits once it is painted it looks GOOD and any idiot will know what it is. you can comment on this OR if you know of a east conversion or even moderate share it with us please? I would personally like it if someone knew how to make auto cannons

Sounds useful...

I know personally I am a visual learner.

I couldn't hit the broadside of a barn with an arrow until my friend showed my step by step the draw, release, etc...

I can almost always hit within a 3" spread with a full round (1/2 a quiver, 6 shots) from 50 yards...

Considering that is with an English longbow bigger than I am tall, it aint' 1/2 bad.

sorry about the poor image quality cell phone camera but here we go





pic one is the pieces you need two is the pieces cut at the right spots you'll need the middle of the grenade launcher and the top of the vox pic three is them lined up right. and the thing on the left of pic four is the finished hvy bolter. sorry I did not take a shor of it on the tank and they are unpainted the thing on the right is ehat it looks like if you leave the vox whole and clue it to the base of a trimmed extra coms from a chimera. also used half of the round part of a loader from the launcher to make my reloading chamber. though you can not really see it well in this shot. I use this variant for my bassy. there are the photos hope they help

BTW I know the pics are a bit crude but I promis if you look hard you can follow them as a diagram and with the above instructions make your own. and see your new near perfect hvy bltr whenever you want
