Title: Ideas for heads
Post by: George on 23 September 2023, 07:13:01 PM

I am trying to find some 28mm heads to convert some generic male nude bodies I have into Pacific island warriors. So maybe fuzzy hairstyles and beards. Maybe I could get away with Germanic or Celtic ancients? All  suggestions welcome.

The Perry’s plastic dervish box would be what you’re looking for .

Thanks Belisarius. There's certainly some heads that would be great but a lot of bodies and other stuff that would be entirely surplus. I was hoping for a manufaturer that sold separate heads, metal or plastic.

Found Steve Barber has a set of 12 Goth barbarian heads. Is there anyone else doing anything similar?

Various companies do separate heads though not specific Pacific islander ones e.g. Westwind Productions, Spellcrow, Tabletop Art. Westwind make them to fit their own figures. The other two mentioned are designed, I assume, to convert GW figures. Finding something suitably sized for your bodies may be a challenge.

I have settled on Victrix Gallic naked fanatics. The bodies on the sprues can be used too.
