Dark Eldar Conversions | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
For a long time I have wanted to do a special conversion for a Succubus on a Reaver Jetbike. On a whim I decided to build the conversion while I was making last minute preparations for my Wych Cult army for a Rogue Trader Tournament. I originally intended to include a Hellion Succubus in my army, but I did not think that the model stood out enough from the rest of the squad. I thought that I could make a Reaver Succubus for my jetbike squad that would be more dramatic. The conversion started with one of the metal jetbike riders that come in the Reaver jetbike boxed set. I bent the right arm down and away from the body and removed the hand. In its place I pinned and glued the right hand and weapon from the female dark eldar lord model. The weapon had a wire bundle attached to it, which I bent and connected to a box on the riders belt. The Tormenter Helm was cut out of an incubi model and sculpted to fit the rider's head. I had to cut away some of the rider's hair to get a good fit with the helm. The final piece was the jetbike. Since I had little time, I decided to borrow the Reaver Jetbike that I had done for my Archon/jetbike conversion. The paint scheme on the bike was updated and the large blade underneath was painted to be a power weapon that was part of the bike itself. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
