Hello Good Gentlemen and Gentleladies.


I would like to start a thread showcasing many of my ongoing projects and 3d work as they pertain to 6mm. The majority of the models I own in this scale are Baccus, they are my favorite manufacturer. When I cannot convert or otherwise jerry rig Baccus models however it becomes necessary to make my own or go to other retailers. This thread will primarily focus (as it is Baccus's forum) on my use of Baccus Figures and my own 3d creations.

Emphasis on my own 3d work for 6mm as I would LOVE to do work for Peter, I hope in part to either inspire or impress him (maybe into some collaboration).

First Id show off some of my Baccus 'conversions' 
Keep in mind most of my interest lies in Sci Fi fantasy at the moment. Trek, 40k, Halo, Star wars to name a few. This is mostly what I have to show for now.

In this picture we see Imperial Guard of the Vostroyan Firstborn Regiment (Baccus French Imperial Gaurd in Greatcoat) Fight off some Ork Meganobz (my own 3d models)

A close up of the action, the lead Ork has in his Klaw an (engineer Figure from Baccus)

A picture of my MegaNob Ork 3d Design Process

Meganobz 6/8mm scale


Heres an example of what you can do with some creativity. This is a micromachine At-St sliced up and ive added one of Baccus's WW2 German officers for the Commander. In addition I do intend to use If I recall British Paratroops as a proxy for Imperial Army Personell


Some pictures of a custom Epic 40k Imperial Gaurd Regiment im working on using Baccus miniatures.





Some of my custom 3d work now
Deamonettes

Chaos Lord

Skitarii

And finally for now, can you guess.



As you can tell I had not prieviously worked in 6mm design and as such my original designs were too thin and not well proportioned for the scale. Ive learned alot since then and hope to improve :)

Criticisms and Comments welcome

Thank you

I assume you mean for the Guard Regiments, I made my own for the Kraytons. using Styrene rods I did a bunch of Flamers, Launchers, Snipers, and Meltas.

Its not super apparent in the photos, I can do detailed picks if you like.
