Simple Meltagun conversion for Cadian Troopers

Greetings all,

I thought I would post the melta gun conversion I did for my cadian troopers. Basically, I had 3 metal melta guns which I thought would be a pain to put on my cadians, not to mention the hand on the metal gun does not match up. I used the flamer bits from the cadian sprue to make this work.

These are the two guns we are working with:

This is the plastic flamer bit with the end and the gas valve clipped off:

Three metal melta guns with the tips pried off (no need to clip, they will come off with some gentle bending):

Melta tips superglued to flamer chasis:

Mounted on the Cadians. Veteran Power!

I am also working on a demolition Cadian (this veteran squad will be run as demolitions experts), and I will post when complete!

Cruising the internet yesterday, I came across a blog that inspired me in a couple of ways. First, this guy is doing a pre-heresy Thousand Sons that is looking very cool. Also, he has a pretty cool way of laying out his armies using excel. It struck me as a great way of keeping track of your current status of an army, as well as adding the individual character (i.e. squad names/character names) and seems like it would help keep me goal oriented. Forgive me if you have already seen similar layouts, but i had to duplicate it for my IG. You can see some awesome original work at http://mordian7th.blogspot.com/
