I want to start a Genswick Reg myself and would really like to see how you did the gasmasks... instead of buying the FW models...<br /><br />Cheers!Ironmongerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04423351470586529410noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2469017760558244027.post-78954315570045090932009-03-06T05:02:00.000-08:002009-03-06T05:02:00.000-08:00Hi AlanUnfortunately not : ( I didn't have my came...Hi Alan<BR/><BR/>Unfortunately not : ( I didn't have my camera/light set-up when I was building it so I have no in-progress shots. With the current exchange rate the FW Gorgons are approx $140US each. Only $45 more than the Baneblade, so currently well worth it, compared to the amount of time you'd spend building even one of these puppies.<BR/><BR/>Cheers<BR/>Davedavetaylorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08137502467601937229noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2469017760558244027.post-59839884243539399482009-03-05T13:32:00.000-08:002009-03-05T13:32:00.000-08:00Is there anyway that you could make a step by step...Is there anyway that you could make a step by step guide on the gorgon.

Getti...Hi traitorer<BR/><BR/>Go for it, the more the merrier! Getting the lasgun arms to fit can be a bit tricky though, so be prepared to carve away a little extra on the Man-at-Arms sleeve or the Cadian sleeve. Pay close attention to where you have to cut and you'll soon get the hang of it, then you'll be able to fly through the conversions.<BR/><BR/>Alternatively you could do what some others have done and slice the Bretonnian arms of altogether and add the Cadian arms directly to the model. It gives quite a different look though.<BR/><BR/>Cheers<BR/>Davedavetaylorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08137502467601937229noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2469017760558244027.post-57872434717490642932009-02-26T20:39:00.000-08:002009-02-26T20:39:00.000-08:00I loved seeing this army i think in its full glory...I loved seeing this army i think in its full glory at games day chicago 2 yrs ago. It was very impressive and i wanted to make one myself but me bieng the shy person i was never asked whos they were or how to make them. I now know how to do them and hope you dont mind me using the idea for the trench coat look seeing as the rumors say no trench coat plastics for guard. I only have one question though if you dont mind. How did you get the lasgun arms to fit, just patience and a little trimming?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2469017760558244027.post-33533478725590020592009-02-26T17:32:00.000-08:002009-02-26T17:32:00.000-08:00Hi TMWHI made over 120 infantry and 16 cav plus a ...Hi TMWH<BR/><BR/>I made over 120 infantry and 16 cav plus a lot of vehicles and artillery.

I still think your scratch-converted Gorgon is one of your best pieces of conversion work and at the time it was completed it was a clear sign that your already formidable modeling skill had hit a new level. Even these fine pictures can only scratch the surface of the level of detail and "coolness" you built into that model.<BR/><BR/>Seeing your Gorgon up close when you first built it also certainly helped inspire me to take the leap into a new dimension of scratch-converting that I had not explored previously and some of the best stuff I've turned out in the past couple years, like the Chaos Stormlord scratch conversion, are the direct result of the encouragement and enthusiasm you provide along with your own projects. <BR/><BR/>I hope everyone who takes a peak at the pictures above enjoys seeing the Gorgon as much as I do. As always, your projects and hobby suggestions take the fun factor of this hobby up a notch for everyone.BrassScorpionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02834711977276814898noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2469017760558244027.post-54455551764912378752009-02-23T08:31:00.000-08:002009-02-23T08:31:00.000-08:00These models are really nice.
