Hey Twenty.
I used an old plastic Landraider as the base of one of my Supa Stompas.
Came out pretty good. I'd seen the idea somewhere before but I can't remember where.
Have fun with it... You can't really go wrong with Orks!

Hey peeps, I've been considering converting some classic stompas and could do with a little help. I think they might look good with tracks instead of the gargant type feet so was gonna chop off the feet add weapons to 1 to make it a supa stompa and add tracks to all 3 but i can't think of what i can use as a track base, I don't think any other models could be easily converted in to a trackbase for the old plastic stompas... any suggestions??? |

thanks but nah that looks rubbish!! great paint job mind you but I don't think it look quite right, it looks to much like a landrader with a stompa glued on and think it looks a little to high off the ground, any other ideas.... |

Well, I like them a lot. When I saw them, I thought I would go and convert some of my own. But I think you guys are talking about 2 different things, right? Tweety wants to replace the feet on the stompas for trakks while onyx turned his stompas into soopastompas by adding the extra rider. Am I right? |

No worries twenty... your original question isn't very clear then. "add weapons to 1 to make it a supa stompa" " but not really looking to make supastompers" I shall make sure not to offer any more advice/help to you as my conversions are "rubbish". |

Sorry onxy i was just kiddin, but crappy sense of humour I think ur stompas look really really good. What i meant was I want to convert 3 of my plastic stompas all 3 with tracks as feet and 1 of the 3 a super stompa. I think urs look mint but I want a smaller base for the tracks.. again no disrepect to your great orky supa stompa.. |

The LR can work if you cut off the track "plates" and glue them either side. Similarly Rhinos or Ork B-Wagons are also ok for this. For the Supa Stompa, take the bigger plastic Stompa and hollow out the "arch" at base of the front piece to make a cavity for a "mini-gutbuster"...plastic tube will do. Add a new floor and the track parts and you got a really cheap Super- Stompa....or use two Rhinos for more mass. |
