How to Convert Jetbike WarlocksFirst decide on which warlock you want to convert. For this guide I've used this warlock here.
But as seen above I've used a variety of different warlocks so the same principle applies to each. Best to use one where the arm sleaves can be cut away without too much issue. This one however requires a bit of tricky cutting.
Second decide on which hand will be touching the handlebars. Typically i've found the models left side is best for that, and if using shining spears control panels, it will have to be the left side. Its best to leave the handle bars off the jetbike when its built. In some cases though both arms will be coming off.
Third This is the real squimish part. You basically need to cut off the models arms and underneath the belt to leave just the head and torso - leaving a "bust" of the model. This then lets you reapply the arms and weapon in how ever pose you want. However if one of the arms you want to keep as it, don't cut that off, but at least one arm will need to go in most cases.

This then lets you reapply the arms and weapon in how ever pose you want. However if one of the arms you want to keep as it, don't cut that off, but at least one arm will need to go in most cases. This step may require alot of filing and cutting with your blades, so be patient.
Fifth Glue the jetbike legs to the jetbike. Its best to do this so you can sit the warlock bust into postion without having to worry about the legs. And then you can work out how the arms are going.
Sixth Glue the arms into place. You'll probably find you need to greenstuff in gaps here so keep some ready. In this case I've used the original spear of the model and changed its pose and the other arm using a jetbike arm.
Seventh Glue the warlock "bust" to the jetbike legs and attach other arms if doing so. You may need to add some additional details here depending on if you forgetting anything. But your model is basically finished.
Eigth Totally optional, but I found greenstuffing a cloak flowing back hides alot of the conversion details, and fills out the body a bit.
Nineth Undercoat the model which will also help cover up any mistakes.
Tenth If using the geomagz base technic, screw the small headed flat screw into the bottom of the jetbike and mount. I also replace the flag pole at the back with a vien from the falcon, which fills out the back some more.
And then your done with most likely superglue and cuts all over your fingers
The whole process takes anywhere from an hour to three depending on distractions.
