Dante 2010

[atacam]

Hi my names Luke Wilson aka atacam. You may have seen me around other forums?....No! Well I have been a lurker for a while now, and thought it was about time I started to contribute.

I just dont like the Dante mini anymore, sure it was fine 15 odd years ago, but the new BA's far supersedes this tired old mini, so I thought I would bring him up to date a bit.

After about a weeks work, on and off, I have finally finished the build/conversion/sculpt.

Hey. Well done. I really like this. You have inspired me to try something like this myself.

A very nice conversion. How did you do the BA sign on his Jumppack if I may ask?

Thanks.

I did it by press moulding. If you need any more info, I can sort it out for you. :)

Yes, Please sort it out!

I'm interested in how you got the press moulded icon to be rounded so that it fits on the jetpack/shoulderpad, too. I do a lot of press moulding, but it's always flat, and I've had trouble getting things to have the right curve to them.

Yes, Please sort it out!

The same reply from me. Yes, please tell us more.

Those shots should be sent to GW in good old UK !
That's a mini worth casting !

Nice work on Dante, cannot wait to see him painted.

All in all a great conversion! I just had one question... Hey did you decide to go with those shin guards when most sanguinary guard types have the "+" shape to them?

Ps I also would like to see you sort it out cause I'm always looking to add to my bag of tricks
