My new Quar WIP.
I thought I would make a medical unit for my Quar army after all someone has to look after the wounded.
http://bandit86.blogspot.com/I started with a Syrnol figure to use as a surgeon. I took the figure and sanded down part of the inner jacket on one side and the scarf to make it more of an old high collar medical smock and then sanded the sash down to just a belt. I then took a head from my bag o heads and made it into a Quar version with a surgical cap, I added a full face mask and then made an attempt at a scalpel and stethoscope (we will see how they paint up for I am definitely not a sculptor). And there you have it my Quar doctor ready to save the life of the next unfortunate soldier.
The next set is my heroic medics, running into the fray under a hail of slugs to save a fallen comrade. I used two Ryfler Maerch figures for the medics adding a couple of small medical packs to them and used some brown epoxy putty to add arm bands to the shoulders. I remove the rifles and sacks that came with the figures and drill in holes for the stretcher poles; I also had to resculpt an arm on one of the little fellow because I broke it off while removing the rifle. The wounded soldier was made with some sculpting putty (the bake in the oven stuff) some brown stuff for the collar and pressure bandage on the head, another head from my bag o heads and an extra arm with the rifle removed. The stretcher was made with two paper clips and Kleenex soaked in with a white glue/water mix which was also used for the blanket. The base on the set was made from two round lipped bases cut in half; I then joined them with an old cavalry base and made the lip with brown stuff. It was a fun little project that did not take a lot of time and I think will make a nice little vignette when painted up. Thanks for looking and Down with the Crusades !!!
They still need some tweaking on the resculpted parts but not to bad so far
