Project OOP: Leman Russ

 This is how far i have got with my Leman Russ 'renovation' conversion. I used an old space wolf backpack so i can put a banner on, and a pelt from the grey hunter back (cut it off and glued it on. I also took 2 space wolf chainswords and glued then together to make Mjaniar. You may notice it is slightly bent, this is purposful to make it more like a sabre.

I think im done with the model now, i just need to do the base (a mountain peak!) the banner, and paint it AND do Freki and Geri.

Until then.

Project OOP

OOP. Out of production. A gold mine for collectors. Recently a cousin of mine gave me a bunch of unwanted old models. I was looking through them and from what was there i was like *meh*.
But then i came across the old vintage great unclean one. Sure he was small (only slightly bigger then a plague bearer) but he was a beauty. So i decided i would fix him up (lots of gaps etc) and paint him and field him as a tribute to the old days.




Ages ago we got a job lot off ebay for space wolves. Just so odd bits here and there. Then we came across this. An old Leman Russ model. Sure he was missing his wolves, blade, cape, back pack, and standard, but i took him on. I am going to convert this baby and make him the best damn primarch hes meant to be.

So this is project OOP, getting a GUO to playing standard and converting a primarch back up to shape. Im even going to make some rules for Russ (based off the rules for Angron in the horus heresy rulebook). I will do regular updates on this so stay tuned.

Until then.
