Help with Snipers

[Deleted]

Hey im not fond of the ratling models but i like their stats so im building a squad of normal sized humans to use in their place.

I wanted to use scout sniper rifles but that idea would be wayyy to expensive, so yeah throw me some ideas!!!

You could probably just convert some lasguns, its what I did for mine. Just extend the barrel length and find something to function as a scope. If you feel like it you also might give the troops ghillie suits made of GS.

I`ve recently made a nice looking sniper rifle for my guardsmen. I used a Cadians lasgun, chimera lasgun and the sight from the heavy weapons team. All I really do is cut the chimeras lasgun barrel off and swap it with the cadians lasgun. It makes the cadians lasgun look much longer. I then fit the heavy weapon sight to the lasgun and voila, a sniper model thats all plastic. The gun will look bulky but thats the way the Imperial Guard should look.

Nice, im going to see if i can pick up a box of scouts real cheap, but ill try out these first, i dont have a chimera but ill see what i can put together.

Hmm, the chimera method is so simple.

Good luck with the scouts comrade.

Those are some awesome models Woz! I really like how you've given the flamer operator the extra gear.

yeah i saw your snipers zumbaz, they look sweet.

They are some awesome models. Do you have a front view photo of the flamer? And for the sniper next to the flamer, how did you do the camo wrapped around his gun barrel?
