CONVERT: Ripper Swarm - Missile Operator

The wishes of Warhammer 39,999 are but my command...

I long while back I went to work on a number of bases to 'bulk up' my ripper swarms into more obvious units. Now, unless you buy the forgeworld swarms, the individual ripper swarms are a little dissapointing. Therefore I decided to dive into the bits-box and have some fun...

Here the 'piece-de-resistance' - Missile Operator Ripper!


Basically a load of vehicle bits put together with some greenstuff smoke plumes to demonstrate the launch. A nice touch is the 'red' button on the unlaunched missile and a 'green' button on the launching one...

If only I could model the surprise on the Rippers face?!?
