Exceptional work! What did he use to make the first two Russian pieces you posted?
I've also done quite a few FOV/21st vehicle conversions myself, here are a few:
Forces of Valor Mid-production Normandy tiger turned early-production Tunisia:
21st Century 32x Panzer III ausf. E turned Panzer III ausf. N Tunisia:
FOV Sherman/ Vintage Tamiya M10 turned Normandy Achilles:
These are just the ones I have finished. My conversion process is quite lengthy as it seems I don't have the time to really dedicate to finishing any of them in a timely fashion. As a result I have about a half dozen works-in-progress sitting on my work bench at home including a bergepanther, t-34/76, and late war stug, most of which I've been slowly working on for years.
I have quite a few repaints as well, but I wouldn't quite count them as "conversions".

You gents are going to make me break out the old camera when I get home and snap some pictures of the repaints as I generally don't document them as much since they didn't require anything overly labourious. I think I'll post some pics of my Tunisia '43 Diorama in the diorama section for those that liked the desert armor as I don't want to hijack uksubs/gk5717's thread.

I cannot take credit for doing these, I have trouble tying my shoes!
Most of the vehicles pictured are done by a guy I met at last years OTSN.
They are not Figarti & K&C priced but they are not cheap either.
But for me it is well worth what I pay. I collect these as they fit perfectly with my plastic converted figures. Most of which are done by fellow board member Gary Binder, who in my mind is the absolute best when it comes to converting plastic figures. I also have a large amount of Gary Dutko conversions, another master of the art.
The guy who does the vehicles Scott Schleh also does figures which are also very well done. What,s great about Scotts figures he does the off the wall stuff. Some of which he has done for me French partisans, Romanian WW2, Falschmjagers.
I know a lot of members here don,t care for plastic but by having all these converted figures and vehicles it is my favorite area of collecting.

I ahve a few more conversions to show off, They aren't quite finished, but I thought I'd show them anyway. I'm having to wait for the decals in the mail...
Monogram 1/32 sdkfz 233 conversion (uses FOV sdkfz 251/9 gun)
