Looking for \"active\" conversions and bases ideas

[Silverthorn]

Hello all,

I am currently working on a new Deathguard army made of 56 plague marines.

I have already painted quite a bunch of marines and I want this army to be different.

I would like to give almost each marine a special pose (running, crouching, hiding, crawling, etc...) and/or a special base (jumping from a barrel, hiding behind a piece of junk, coming out of a hole, etc...).

As you can guess, doing 56 of these requires a whole lot of inspiration and I need some.

Could you please refer me to CMON galleries or web sites that display such conversions/ideas.

Many thanks in advance.

I remember Astonia doing some good original bases.

I\'m also working on a Deathguard army. My first squad is lighty converted with a Aspiring Champion with a Powerfist and a normal marine who now has a plastic plasmagun. My second squad has more conversions, here\'s the Aspiring Champion for the second squad:

I\'m putting all my Aspring Champions on a 40mm round base with a piece of slate on it made from a piece of bark. The normal marines stand on a regular 20mm round base with just sand. The sand and slate is dryrbrushed with VMC Basalt Grey>VMC Neutral Grey>VMC Light Grey. I then spice the base up a bit by putting some Woodland Scenics Foilage on it and some static grass. Hopes this helps!

you can always have some more rotted then others. or as they are followers of nurgle. a dying dround behind them as if they can spread decay and disease by jut only walking.
