Quick mock up of a Berzerker conversion I'm working on. Planning to do about 20 guys like this for a Fist of Khorne. Would ideally replace all my chaos marines with similar stuff.

...Sorry, I can't tell; what's it being converted from/to? AoS to 40k or vice versa?

Can't tell if you're just being snarky about AoS bits or not. Will assume it's an honest question.

It's mostly chaos raptor parts with the head and left arm coming from the AoS Blood Warriors, the backpack is a standard CSM one, which I plan to either swap for a cooler one or pimp up to match the rest of the armour.

I plan to use it as a Khorne Berzerker in my KDK army.

Been reading the Grey Knights books.
I mean, Ben Counter gave them chaplains, which is apparently not a thing no more, but other than that they aren't as phallically-inclined as I had believed.
I mean, the canon is in shreds. But these shreds may have been the better ones.

I was honestly asking. I know very little about AoS so I didn't know if you'd put on a chaos marine backpack and pistol-arm/hand onto an AoS model.

Awesome stuff as always, Grim Portent.  :)
By the way, what is behind the scene, from how the legs and some giant weapon arm look, it seems to be titan, can you show it?

Have read some chapters from priests of Mars. The writing and story telling are pretty astonishing, however titan princepses are depicted in some weird fashion. I expected them to be more about having space marine chapter master tier wisdom and tactical genius then about hurr durr me alpha dog of the pack. 

Also I suddenly remembered the picture resembling  dawn of war intro epic flag scene. It was showing blood ravens flag on the hill from the first person view of the shot space marine on the ground, he tried to reach the flag with his hand, in the hand  was dice, which landed on 1. Does not anyone have it or know it by any chance?

Right, it's just that the internet is rather full of people with a tendency to snark on anything AoS related. Often hard to tell when a question to do with warhammer is a subtle jab at it or not.

Anyway, the Blood Warriors are often used as Berzerkers by just slapping a backpack on them, maybe a pistol and then just calling it a day, but I really hate the leather boot look. Really doesn't suit Chaos Marines, so I decided to use raptors, them being the most detailed power armoured marine kit other than the DV Chosen, and try a little kitbashing and knifework.

The actual Blood Warrior torsos will probably be used for something eventually. Carapace armoured R&Hs soldiers maybe.

I remember reading those books. Really liked them, but I can understand why GW made the move to how GKs are now.

That's a FW Decimator daemon engine. Not got any pictures of either of them I can post right now, but I'll try to remember to post one after I've slept. Pretty late here right now.

Keep it up GW, soon you will be no more. I just wish they sell the Warhammer IP to somebody with their heads out of their collective asses, unlike the current owners.

I'm curious as to how a tank would evolve. Would it climb out of the primordial ooze wiggling it's track-nubs, feeding on smaller jeeps before crawling onto the shore having evolved proper treds?
My ship exploded midflight, but all the shrapnel totally landed on Alpha Centauri before anyone else did.  Bow before me world leaders!

This.

Maybe they'd realize the main reason a lot of people stay out of the hobby is the price and lower it.

If I remember right, didn't dwarves basically get the Squat treatment in AoS?

And to think. I was wanting to go into Fantasy specifically to play dwarves...

Squats were withdrawn, effectively written out of canon and no longer are a army available to play.
