wow nice conversions,

I like the 'medizinische Erstversorgung' I was about making a first aid 'dioarama' myself but never got that far, I thought about one injured Firewarrior and another firewarrior using a backpack as an 'AED' 'Automatic External Defibrilator' and seeing your work makes me want to do it too ;)

good job!

Great Conversions!
I think Medizinische Erstversorgung would be First Aid
What will be screening on the Flat? A Football-game? :P

Your Commander is great, too. I like the sawed off shotgu.... ehm Burstcanon, like in a good movie - never leave the house with a sawed off weapon :D
Looking forward to see your version of Iridium armour and the VTR

Good use of parts and a good way to recycle empty sprues :P ! I really like your conversions. Maybe I will borrow some of your ideas if you do not mind.
Keep up the great work :biggrin:

These are really fun and creative, very nice work!
I particularly like your tech support drone, do you have any closer pics of different sides so we can see how you put it together?

My only suggestion would be to scrape away the plastic flash lines on the models as they detract somewhat from what is really an excellent group of conversions.

I really like your conversions.

This is excellent work, petz72. I would be very happy to field some of these as objective markers, so if you don't mind I may just steal your ideas!

Thanks also to our other German members for helping out with some translation difficulties.

The Last One was inspired by "Platoon" ?!? The Honour Guardians are looking good so far.
May you write down a translation to the "Ehrengarde" aswell, or Eiglepulper probably will send you a PM :P

Great work on your commander so far, too.
Only waitig to see him painted :D ... hmmm no I think the Flat-screen is more important :P

The tactical screen. Brilliant.

Great stuff, excuse me while I refile this under the appropriate forum ;)

Enjoying the direction you take these conversions and mini-dioramas.

EDIT : Refile it right on back, didnt realise you were still a 'Saal for now. ;)

Oh man, this is awesome markers! Never thought that simple things and discarded stuff could be blended into such intresting dioramas. I'm watching the flat screen one. I would love to see more! :smile:

Amazing strategems and conversions! The only nitpick I can think about is the lenses (they just look out of place), but even those look great! Where'd you get the different Bonding Knives?

I think the knives are from plastic Eldar Dire Avengers.
