Champion with combi-plasma painted.

I've painted up the champion with combi-plasma along with 3 other guys that were waiting for me to paint for a long time. Finally I sat down and dealt with all of them at once.

The highlight of the day is of course, the champion with combi-plasma. I actually cut it off and made it a little more compact.

I think I still have to work on the glowing effects he gets from the plasma on the bolter, so I'll continue to work on him.

I still have more men to paint up, and news is here that my Forge World order will be arriving soon, so I will show you guys what I bought.

Hobby Tips - Simple combi-plasma conversion

I was thinking of something funny to do yesterday, a 5 men Chaos Havocs squad with 4 plasmaguns and the champion with a combi-plasma. So after working out the statistics of killing stuff with plasmas, it turns out that if the champion in the squad was given a plasma, it will almost guarantee the death of almost anything when they go rapid firing.

I've seen someone converted a combi-melta or combi-plasma somewhere, but somehow I thought of doing this myself last night. I went through the bits box and found that the plasma pistol from the Space Marines seem to fit and look as though it's enough for a one-time use weapon.

So the cutting was made for the bolter and the plasma pistol.

Simple yet effective. I like it.
