Acheron WIP

It's nearly done

Plastic Cerastus Knight Acheron Conversion

I wasn't happy with how the Lancers Lance was looking. So I made a flame cannon just to see how it would look. Much better in my opinion, so Acheron it is now.

Shapeways Breacher Shield test

So I ordered some boarding shields from Pop Goes the Monkey. The detail is great but the mounting is difficult without the shoulder pauldron interfering. But after trial and error I came to this solution:

Cut the wrist mount at an angle.

Plastic Cerastus Lancer Conversion

Well I decided to push my conversion skills after I decided I would never actually use a Gallant. So here's my attempts at a plastic Knight Lancer.

 Lengthening the legs and lance parts

Post filling on the legs, but pre filing/evening out

Post filing, filling, and evening.. I'll do another pass on them to get the shape better. The green rod I'll be using for my my piston lengths.

In lieu of a normal shield I decided to go with a buckler. The Renegade box comes with some building bits that, namely the big Aquila door, I'm tempted to convert into a tower shield.
