Many (many many many) years ago there was an article or two in White Dwarf on scratchbuilding armour for 40K using card and scrap plastic (IIRC). I think they may have given templates as well for cutting plasticard to get turrets etc. |

The chiese came like that, the templates for the sicarans were guessed i made 2 templates one for the sides and another for the sides extra plating, the worst part was cutting the medicine tubes to make the ammunition drums I should have heated something metallic with fire to cut with red hot metal and not cold steel |
