More Necrons in Spaaaace! Kitbashing the fleet part 2.

Here's a picture dump of more on my attempt to turn my bits box into a Necron BFG fleet. Unwilling and if I am honest, unable, to pay the evil bay prices... here is my attempt.

The winning formula of the Jackel class Escort proxies, by using Lych Guard shiels, gauss blaster nozels and Rods of the Covenant Pommels made me another couple.  I think I have enough to make 9!!

My... attempt to make a Tomb Ship.  Not entirely won over by the Destroyer body.  Loving the wings... but no.  Looking into alternatives.

Needed something for the smaller Escort class, Cairn?  Noticed the Rods of the Covenant I had spare are looking very promising.  Just need to decide on what I will do with the rear to make it more engine like.

Recently got some bits an bobs which may give me the scythe shape I want.

With there being plenty other things to be done, this is a nice alternative now and then.  What can you do with your bits box?

Watch this space!

Battlefleet Gothic Necron Kit Bash.

Just a quick blog post to show of my forray into making a super cheap Necron fleet for BFG (Battlefleet Gothic).  As many know, this great game was sadly discontinued by a suffering Games Workshop leaving its rules online and its figures ebay hotspots.

Having seen some excellent kit bashing and proxies appearing online, though mainly Dark Eldar for some reason, I decided to take a shot at seeing if I could do something.  The rule?  It could only be made from bits in my bits box.

Basically, this was made from a Necron energy shield (from that double set including Triarch Praetorians), with the energy bands cut out from the centre.  I was inspired by the Narn battle ships from Babylon 5!

I then cut to fit the barrel from a Gauss Blaster to fit down that front bit, and added a Triarch Praetorian's Rod of Covenant pommel to the back to act as a fin.

A simple conversion, counting as a Jackal Class I'd wager.  And the best bit?  Its all bits I have a few of.  Expect at least 4 of these guys soon!

Now, what about that Cairn Class...
