Mor Deythan Squad

This is my Mor Deythan squad, assembled and ready to be primed for painting.

The squad features combi-melta guns and two meltas through the squad to take advantage of first turn infiltration set-up possibilities. Whilst they may not get within half range on the first turn, by turn two or three, the aim is to have this squad blow up a tank or transport with the melta guns, and then open fire with the bolters later if required. Subsequently, they serve as a tar pit, or meat shield support, as required. 



The only real conversion work here was fitting the melta guns to the bodies of the Raven Guard. This was not hard, and required simply removing the hand from the weapons as I wanted to preserve the hands of the resin miniatures in entirety. The back packs are not standard resin, but from the mark 4 space marine range. The naked head is from the modern space marines boxed set. Other than that, this squad is complete. 

New Year -- New Army. This is just the start.

Mor Deythan Melta

The new project is taking form with increased celerity (although that wouldn't take much either given how little progress I have made on it, to be candid). 

This model is a Mor Deythan marine from the Raven Guard legion. This is a minor bit of conversion work, replacing the regular armament with a melta gun from the plastic 30k range (which needed the hand chopped away to work with the resin hand on the Forge World parts), along with a plastic back pack. Although I thought about buying the regular marines, I got a good deal on an incomplete Mor Deythan set (minus the weapons and back packs) that I couldn't say no to. Hence this marine needed a couple of more parts to set him up well.


Well, there may still be prizes for guessing what I'm working on, so I'll leave that part of what I'm doing as a semi-mystery for the moment (but its probably obvious). I want to get a full squad of Mor Deythan converted in a similar fashion and ready for painting soon, time permitting!
