Winged Harbinger of Menoth Conversion
Yes, I am still alive. I’ve been working on things, and as proof, here’s my latest conversion. I don’t have much of a walkthrough for it, as it was mostly impromptu work when I had time. I do have a parts list though.
- Harbinger of Menoth
- Deva, Female Angel (#3114, Reaper Dark Heresy)
- Sir Ekkrion’s Shield (PP Bits Store)
And, from this, I get a winged Harbinger carrying a shield, accompanied by an Acolyte holding her Battle Standard. She’s still got some sticky-tac, as I’ve left her mostly unassembled. As intricate as the model is, being able to paint it in parts is a necessity. Not that it will get painted any time soon, I just was too excited about the conversion to not get it done. Also, credit where credit is due, I didn’t think up the winged conversion, nor was I the first to use these wings. Thanks to Ravenshaw (who may or may not have been the first, but certainly led me in the right direction).

Really nice work… Can’t wait to see it painted.
I have to pick a scheme first!
Very cool! Nice to see her done after talking about her on the drive back from TempleCon. The shield and wings make for a much cooler model overall.
Hey bud! This is awesome. Could you get a hold of me somehow to elaborate on how I can do this as well. Glueing the original harbinger together is a pita and I’m thinking about getting into pinning and conversions as well. Any help would be greatly appreciated as I would love to make a replica harby like this!
You know, I never finished this piece, but I do still have it. If I’m correct, it’s still in pieces, not even glued together. I could take some exploded view pictures for you and do small write-up on it.
I’m sure that I’d do it differently now, with another 7-ish years of experience since this was done, but it’s still a great conversion and looks amazing, I think.
