With the arms that I sawed off of the Ogre, I used as the base of the weapom arm....

Obliterators converted... Tributes (giving credit where credit is due)
To sharpen my conversion skills I had to do some research and lots of practice... I can't take all of the credit, so I'm going to show some of my sculpt work, then as a tribute to the website I learn these techniques from, I'm going to add the links to their website as well..
I'm going to use alot of "Green Stuff" for this conversion. So to speed up the curing process, I've created an oven /cooker that will semi-harden the green stuff in just under an hour. So, once I created a mold, I can start the hardening process then move on to another without waiting a large amount of time.... see the link below and build your own heat lamp (cooker)...
Secondly, for the Obliterators conversion, we'll need to make decorative armor. I'll sculpt several pieces... armor for the chest, arms, legs, shoulder, face, etc. I build molds for this. That way I can use the molds to produce duplicates for the other models in the unit so they look the same. After practice, trial and error, I've maganged to pull it off... see the link below and build your own decorative armor...

Ok, I've showed you some basic techniques that I've picked up through research. These are my tributes to those whom I borrew techniques from. I've still got my secrets as well, just giving credit where credit is due.

Obliterators... converted
I'm going to sharpen my conversion skills by converting Obliterators from an Ogre model...
First of all, I used a saw to cut off the arms and legs from the model... (I saved the arms because I'm going to use them as part of the weaponry....)
Now that I have the main torso of the model, I can start building the armor from green stuff...
I've already built "stilts" for the model... Once I drill holes for the legs, Ill stand the model on the stilts and begin sculpting the legs, etc..
