You can do aggressors with auto cannon from a imperial weapons kit to the mid backpack on the righter pin side two mm drill plug with mag add to the base pin off the auto cannon especially if your doing a 5 man squad no terminator heavy so disappointed ☹️. May have a post on the Warhammer 40k community OGW.....now heavy incinerator with a left power fist serg flamer and twin plasma on that ball back pack with the hell storm should be it's base rapid one tactical troops 30points mmmm...😃😄😁😆😅 5 Smile's.

Krootified versions of useful Tau units would be so cool as thematic additions to Kroot detachments, just for aesthetic consistency

@@HippoBean I personally have some fun stuff planned using the gun options from the hammerhead kit and three Bastilodons
More Kroot. Kroot-operated Vehicles would be a cool idea, or Kroot with armour and pulse rifles that are full on Fire-Warrior equivalents!

I love how the krootox is essentialy the “ride wife” meme and its lore accurate.
This is exactly the sort of creative approach to unit design that I tune into your channel for. Kroot get a new, heavy battle armour variant... "That doesn't sound right. Make it a heavy mounted unit." I'd definitely love to see more Kroot designs. Bring on the Dead Animal Bits!
sweet more Kroot conversions. glad they gotten a Codex finally.

They didn’t. They’re still in the tau codex, but there is a kroot specific detachment called the Kroot Hunting Party.
Honestly the idea of a Broadside Battlesuit piloted by a Kroot does sound really interesting. Could at least make a Broadside battlesuit where the pilot was good friends with them and decided to customize it to be kroot-like.

Was considering doing something similar to how he did the rider here, but clinging to the side of a battlesuit from straps/mesh of some kind. A go between between the kroot vanguard and the T'au

My boyfriend and I are doing a kroot piloted Ghost Keel for a 1000pts list that's half a Tau / Demiurge doubles list.
I vote for you to create an entire tau army kroot themed. Freaking amazing dude!

Pete... ya don't need to ask if we want to see more - you knock it out of the park each time you show us anything and we will always come back for more!!
the work on the gold parts is so good. The whole thing is amazing as usual but the gold is just so eye catching
As an Tau Player of DaW: Dark Crusade: there can never be enough Kroot.

I don't care what Pete says about his sculpting work being rudimentary😂 - bro is an absolute legend with that green stuff.🎉😮 Keep up the good work!!
seeing you carve creases into the padding, add stitches, and make straps was like watching a renaissance craftsman
More kroot, more kroot, more kroot.
Honestly, pack a squad of stealthsuits in there too and the Broadside is still operating at ~95% capacity. Especially with the buff to the Stealthsuit's guiding/spotting ability.

That's true, just having some markerlights will help massively.
I'm so glad you went for the scavenged tech on beasts look. It looks so good. Really hoping for more kroot content. I love them as a species
Yes to more kroot. Yes to Tau, for the Greater Good
LOVE LOVE LOVE this! The Tau are such a fun faction to kitbash and there’s so many ideas you can do for auxiliary units that can be considered canon! MORE TAU!
Holy hell this was a gorgeous conversion. Also, as a fan of rhe T'au I am so happy to see Kroot love from GW and on your channel. Keep up the beautiful artwork my dude
Yessssss more kroot models!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks for blurring the final product in the thumbnail, much better not knowing beforehand
Great job. Keep doing more Tau/Kroot kit bashing. Don't forget the Gue'vesa For the greater good
Definitely more Kroot conversions haha
Watching both your sculpting and painting skills develop from when you started to now genuinely inspires me. Your early stuff was really good, but this model was something else. Keep up the great work mate!
I've always loved the idea of making full armies from the "side factions" like the Kroot. The other two being Tzaangors and Sisters of Silence.
I loved the idea of using a spyglass for a rail gun. Came out perfect and hilarious
More kroot conversions please !! This is so cool
I love Kroot! Kroot are super cool and one of my favorite races from WH40k's universe. They're just super cool both in visual design as well as their lore. They're super fascinating, and I always feel that they need more representation. Good to see the new Codex expanding on them!
More Kroot and more Tau would be wonderful and enjoyable.
The miniature idea was awesome as always, and the paint job this time stands out to me, great conversion!
Easily my favourite kitbash you've done. So stylish, and I love the blend of high and low tech
Omg, love the green stuff work, 😊 my green stuff is never that good😢, the overall outcome is great, keep up the good work😊 cheers Phil

some Kroot Crisis Suits would be super cool
i kit bashed a kroot piloting a ghostkeel a few weeks ago. fewer armor plates and more dead animal bits really made it look like it fit the kroot aesthetic but i dont think i can do too many of my kit bashes that way and continue to maintain the aesthetic. so i think the rest of my kit bashes for the army will likely follow more along the lines of something like this kroot ox broadside.
"If you'd like to see more Kroot..." >>>>> hell yes !!!
Awesome conversion! I always get excited for comes after "...and leaving me...with this"
Probobly one of the coolest conversions I've seen, Man you are talented, and hope you can feel accomplished :)
this might be one of my favourite conversions
Dude this is absolutely incredible! So inspiring! Now all I want to see are Kroot tau conversation! Amazing work! Please do more! 🤘🏼🖤
This is something that just tickles my brain in the right way, lovely creation.
I’m absolutely stoked for the all Kroot army!!! It seems that the Kroot Kill Team started my obsession with building an all Kroot army and my only gaming friend was on board with allowing me to build and play with it using modified rules that we came up with. Now it seems that my side project has become reality and I couldn’t be happier😁 Oh yeah awesome kitbash for sure 🤘
Love it. Amazing kitbash!
Love the idea and how it looks!
Man I love this so much! Great conversion 🤘
earliest i've ever been, awesome conversion as always
Keep the Kroot kitbashing coming. I love it.
I love this idea and the execution is on point
This is perfect! Great painting, great idea, great bash.
I'd love to see an army of Kroot conversions. More please 🙏
An amazing little conversion and paint job . :)
This is awesome. Love the kitbash and the paint job is fantastic! As someone who's currently building a T'au army and just received the kroot hunting pack I'd be very interested to see more of these t'au/kroot conversions!
Looks fantastic!
thats a wicked cool build and paint job
This is brilliant. Love the straps and interfaces
I am so ready for more Kroot conversions!
Love it always wanted them to lean more into kroot
That’s amazing. I love your conversions, I’d love to see more tau and kroot stuff!
Need more conversions like this Pete!! would love to see this project progress
It look like a real unit, good job !!
bro your conversions are the best.
Id love to see more kroot, the kroot are probably my favorite group in warhammer
I love this model. Really amazing work. Please more Kroot.
Looks amazing!!
One of your best yet! Loved it! More please! :D
Seemless. Your greenstuff work has improved greatly.
Ever since I first watched this I've been trying to build a Kroot Hammerhead in my head
Never clicked one of your videos so fast Yes please all the tau conversions you want to do im here for
Kudos on that stitching
GW should take model advice from this man
Amazing work, man. 🤘
Would love to see your take on a forest dragon and a necrolith colossus some day.
Imho one your best work. Simple in theory but lots of great sculpting and an amazing result.
Model looks great! I'll have to try that basing scheme sometime.
AMAZING WORK
love the more painting heavy builds!
Well done mate 👏
This may be your best coversion bravo sir
God I love your Videos man they are so motivating to work on my own models to make them as amazing as you make yours
I would love to see more of your Kroot conversions.
Looks so cool need more please
Next level control
Amazing work!!!!
awesome video! could easily imagine this offical set
Great video, I wanted to do something similar since I saw the kroot hunting kit. I just never though that I would be able to do it. So seeing someone else do it really makes it feel like a reachable goal. Now I can't wait to make a full army like this.
Hell yes dude! More Kroot conversions would be deadly!
More kroot! Loved this conversion :)
Love to see some Kroot love.
this is incredible!!
Love the work Pete! Ur amazing
This is amazing! I'm waiting on the all-clear to pick up my copy of kroot box set and im so tempeted to do something like this with it. Need more inspiration!
Amazing work, as always. I would love to see more krooot. Also, a nurgleeth belthanos, as an extension of your nurgleeth armmy, would be awesome
Kroot conversions++. Love it. Would love to see more of the battlesuits and whatnot Krootoxidized. Maybe a Stealthskroot? Some insane alien ghillie suit looking thing?
Very well done
I've had an idea for a Tau army to have fun converting, and this should be a great reference at some point.
Would love to see more Kroot conversions!
I definitely would like to see more Kroot Kitbashing
I never realized you were so good with greenstuff, that’s crazy!
I'd love to see more Kroots!
That's fantastic, I also want an all kroot model tau army, this is perfect! :D MORE MORE MORE!!!
