here are more BTD Picts .

i use slingers and archers for the job of gangers.



the guy on the left is a slinger converted into a drunkard ! Yes with the rules "Song of Shadow and dust", "drunkard" is a special ability for a figurine.

Now he pour himself a drink  8)

Wow

Eric, those are nice figures. :-*
Here are the latest of mine converted and waiting fo painting. :)

Cheers

Rumacara

thank you my friend.
Your mix of metal and plastic seem very interesting.....excellent job.
I like plastic because it's give a very good animation on the convertion and you can create some conversion more dynamic than with metal (or with less difficulties). Just like SPartacus TV serie where you a jumping/bouncing gladiators in melee !!!

like Spartacus :




or Crixus :

Hello all

Eric, thanks for the compliment.
I really enjoy transforming/converting miniatures. Its the part of the hobby that interests me more.
I also started to sculp a few things that one day might reach other peoples homes but i still have a long go for it.
I still have lots of figures to paint and convert to this theme so you can still count with lots of news and some coming this week.

Cheers

hey Rui,
it's the matter with the LAF, you get Webfriendship but it's difficult to meet or play with someone.
That' give me motivation to follow my projects. I can't go regularly to my weekly club meetingat only 50kms from home so the LAF fill the gap ! ;)

thanks to you

Hello all

Eric, nice ideas.
Those germans are on the pipeline as well as numidians from crusader.
I´m waiting for a wargames foundry order to complement some more gladiators and unarmed civilians and then i will make some more conversions for rioting mob with stones, sticks and daggers.
But that will take a few more days maybe weeks.
New job with less free time.

Cheers
