Some of the best looking doors I've seen. The gun-spears look great too, although I'd be worried about that spike breaking off.

The conversion beamer is pretty sweet too. I'm amazed that GW themselves can't see what a good business it would be to have lots of conversion bits for sale. Combi-weapons and uncommon weapons in resin (can't stand them in metal, the models topple too easy), updates to create WYSIWYG models for options that aren't available. Crateworld, Kabal, Chapter, Legion, Warband, Sept, etc specific replacements.
Yes forgeworld is doing some of this, but I'm not amused by the prospect to order from the UK. You'd think they could fix something up for ordering in the US as well. But their stuff looks sweet :)

The gun spears are pretty easy to convert from the new plastic GK halberds, I like the LR doors though.

In all honesty I'm quite impressed with the quality of the sculpts on these newer pieces, if their is one thing you can say, they have been improving.
Did I see mention of a TRU Scale Storm Raven conversion kit?

The Halberds with Storm Bolters also look pretty good. As for the doors, I would really like them. Chapter House is definately doing a great job.

Newer and newer, funny thing is the doors were made aaages ago. Just got the finishing touches and casting up recently.
Interesting. No offense but considering many of their doors and shoulder pads before just end up looking like pale imitations.....
To me personally this looked like a huge jump in quality for them. Is this a different sculptor then their normal guy?

Wow, those doors are just stunning, absolutely stunning. If I ever needed a landraider I would so get these.

Nope, pretty much the same sculptor:)
Itīs more to do with time allocated on a certain project as well as its "fun factor", those two mean a lot when it comes to the final look of something.
This confuses me. So you'd rather churn out more, but have it look worse, than allocate more time for each project so everything comes out looking good?

Thanks for the Encouraging words everyone.
I guess the cats out of the bag on BOLS, so may as well post the original message, aye?
I have 4 new items that will be going on the new site soon,so here are some previews.
We have a multi-part resin kit that expands upon GWs Chibi-Hawk (Storm Raven) model to actually make it look better (IMHO).

Next to be shown are some resin Gun-Halberds, these will probably be good for those Custodes conversions people want to do, or you can throw them on your Grey Knights.

What we have next is our version of a backpack mount for a conversion-beamer weapon, it also incorporates a servo arm. We had this sculpted so it is magnet friendly as well as easy to glue in the position that best suits your techmarines pose.

And our last new kit is a new Land Raider Door replacement kit. Personally I think they would look good on any Land Raider as often humans refer to the Space Marines as Angels of Death. Then again these may strike a fancy with Dark Angel Players in particular.

I will be putting these as well as the "Wheeled Chimera conversion kit" and "TRU-Scale Storm Raven conversion kit" in the store in a week or two.
Thank you for your continual support!

Needs more Eldar.:rolleyes:
But in all seriousness, those angel of death doors are beautiful.

The gun-spears are basically what the original grey knights carried. The original nemesis force weapon was a halberd with attached storm bolter.

What am I supposed to be seeing on the chibi-hawk?
Deatiling is all wrong on the extended Stormraven hull. Doesn't look like it fits with the model style at all.

Erm..... yah. Remember what I said about thier quality improving? They have done thows before and they were nothing to write home about...
"TRU-Scale Storm Raven conversion kit"
Nick
Also, it shoudl be "True scale Storm Raven conversion kit". Just because some people on the internet are to cool to use the letter "e", doesn't mean a professional modeling house should be too.
