Title: New Survivor Mini Painted..................About Time!!!
Post by: Pappa Midnight on 21 January 2008, 10:34:00 PM

It's been ages since I painted any new minis for modern Horror ( side-tracked with Weird War stuff).
First up is a simple HorrorClix Conversion.
New head + Crucifix + dog-collar and re-paint= Chainsaw swinging Priest! :mrgreen:

'Blessed are the peacemakers' or should that be 'Blessed are the makers of pieces'
That is one seriously cool mini.

Beautiful conversion and paint job. I love it when you can tweak a mediocre pre-painted figure into a great one. I have the same figure sitting on my desk but I hated the head with the mask. I didn't think of the head swap. Where did you get the new head from?

Thank you all for the comments!

I really enjoy "messing" with minis and rarely keep them how they are meant to be.
I was exactly the same with this one Audrey, I had it sat on a shelf for ages.I liked the pose but hated the head. I dug through my "bits" box and found a Super-figs civilian mini ( some guy on a mobile phone). The mini was unusable even as a Zombie but the head looked pretty good.

I suppose I have a tendancy not to throw stuff out ( even really dire minis) as you never know when you might need a spare hand/head etc.

The next one I'm doing is totally mad........ it's a mini of my mate Fritzy as a Survivor armed with a..........guitar! It took me ages to find the right bits and i'm really pleased with it. I'll post some pics soon.

Thanks again for the comments.
