Conversions are about changing a model.
The reasons can be many:
- A weapon looks wrong
- An arm should be rotated slightly in order to change a waving of a weapon into a weapon raised to deliver a deadly blow.
- Using a upper body from a model on foot on a lower body mounted on a mount.
- Giving the model extra equipment
- Removing equipment, perhaps in order to change a 40K ork into a WHB orc by removing that big gun.
- Wanting a model nobody else have to fill an important slot.
These are just some of the reasons I have had for converting some models.
Some conversions are easy, some are difficult, but rest assured that every conversion you make will improve your skill. Even when the conversion turn out to be somewhat disappointing.
