Army Builder custom output requests?

Anybody have any?  A while back I put up a post talking about custom Army Builder outputs and got a little interest.  If anyone wants to see some specific output from AB, let me know in a comment!

Fat boys

I finally wrapped up my Dark Eldar Grotesque conversions using Ogres.  They've got big, fat bodies with little pea-size heads due to the current blend of hypersteriods in use by my Haemonculi.  They'll get it right, eventually.  I suppose I should make a Grotesque with a ridiculously huge head and little stick legs, just to show them over-correcting the dosage.  Anyway - pictures, or it didn't happen, right?

After finishing and basing:

The third butterball from the left will be an Aberration (unit upgrade for Grotesques).  He will either pack scissorhands or a flesh gauntlet.  The dude far left is a Grotesque with a liquifier.  Anyone who's seen a Talos Pain Engine kit will recognize many of the bits used.  They're not pretty, but they will work.  A box of Ogres costs not quite twice as much as a regular Grotesque model, but it was worth it.  If I didn't have leftover bits from the Talos kit, it would have been a more difficult conversion.  If you look at the bottom picture, you will see a guy second from left - I tried to make him a mask using green stuff, and well..   Let's just say he made a good test model.  These guys are coming soon, to a 6" x 4" table near you!  If you live near Albuquerque, New Mexico, that is.
