Hi guys

My WIP Witch hunter warband for various fantasy settings, need to buy 4 more dogs, and make some crossbow men, still have a fair bit of GS work to do, want to add some length to the back of the hoods, add weapons, pouches and packs, then do the bases, I'm going to do zenithal undercoating on these guys. The black figs are brush undercoated Reaper Bones, the grey figs are converted Victrix plastic Anglo-Danes, I also want to incorporate the 3 older figs, the 2 hooded figs are old GW clerics, I think the paladin maybe old reaper, they are all to short at the moment, will be stripping them and conversion to add 5mm of height.

The bases I'm using are a little larger than normal, they cost me $1 for a pack of 30 plastic poker chips, and I don't mind a little extra base to add detail to.

Hi guys

An update on my Witch hunter warband for RPG/Skirmish style games, still some work to do on these guys, have enlargened the 3 older GW figures, adding about 5-6mm in height, they are nice figures but they are a lot shorter than modern figures, I cut the 2 robed figs below the knees, pined them and filled in the space with GS which I shaped to look like their robes, the palidan got a leg replacement with a set of Perry plastic knight legs, his original legs were very short, it was almost a perfect conversion, the end result looks natural and no GS was needed to fill gaps etc, I added a pre conversion pic at the bottom, will be workinhg on their bases tonight.

Wow, just read back through this thread and that is some lovely conversion work in 1:72

The Mordheim band in 28mm is looking great too. Looking forward to seeing them painted up and ready to loot the remnants of Mordheim

Thanks guys, now the hard part, finding time to paint, I get a lot of conversion time, I can do that at night in front of the TV, but I only like to paint in the day, and most of that is used painting commissions.

With those bases you have turned each of the figures into a vignette.  Wonderful work.

Hi guys

Really enjoying 28mm Fantasy at the moment, my latest project is 28mm plastic Dwarves for all manner of skirmish/RPG settings, I will expand the gunners and crossbows, maybe add a unit of regular bows, a unit of spears, and another 1 or 2 of axes/swords, used Othemark plastic Dwarves as my basis and parts from several other plastic sets, Perry, Warlord games, and Fireforge, I also have a a fair few plastic GW Dwarves to play with, although they are shorter, I may extend there legs a little to get them to a similar height.
