Well, it's late, but I finally got around to taking photos of my BSB conversion :D .
So, without further ado, here's the unpainted finished model:

In case you couldn't tell, the base model and banner top are the skaven warlord model and the banner is from the doomwheel. The gun is stolen from a dwarf master engineer and the dagger comes from the new clanrats set. There has been a little green stuff sculpting, mainly to cover joins. I plan on adding a stormvermin shield which I'm trying to blag off a mate.

I'll post pictures when I've painted him but that probably won't be for a couple of months since I have clanrats and jezzails to do before him and I'm a notoriously slow painter :( .

Oh, and I haven't worked out a design for the banner yet, it needs to be heavily affiliated with skryre.

That is a very effective conversion, so smoothly done as well. I like it a lot.
I always have a FW CHAOS DWARF HELLSMITH or two for sale. PM me if you're interested.

Thank you all, this was my first conversion that I actually finished and I am very pleased with the final result. I initially was going to take the gun from some of the kroot frames I've got or buy a box of pistoliers, but then I saw the dwarf engineer model and decided to use that instead. I'm glad I did since the plastic pistols have a really long barrel which would have looked out of place. It also means I've got a second fancy pistol I can graft onto another character and also a backpack stuffed with rifles and a blunderbluss :D .

The banner and tail are completely pinned, but the hands and gun aren't. I dropped it once during making and the gun came off but it glued back without too much hassle. I would have pinned it but it's too awkward to get a drill to. The green stuff helps the strength so as long as I don't fumble him again it should be alright.
