Hi,
can anyone point me towards a source of humanoid pig/hog heads in 28mm for conversion of PA mutie/future trooper minis? Cheers, GDonk

There's a "hog man" head on this sprue from Crooked Dice:

Or you could use heads cut from CP Models' "Hog-Men" range, if the bodies don't suit you:

Steve F - thanks for that, both look very useful, the c-d heads would work on head swap conversions - although obviously there is only the one expression and my skills definitely don't stretch to face mods, but the cp minis wouldn't take much modding for PA muties. Appreciate that very much, GDonk :) :)

ComfyChair games did a horror Pigskin Man in their Spinespur range but they seem to have vanished after the kickstarter a few years back and the mini didn't go across to rebel minis with the other sculpts. The head looks ideal if you can find one.

Cheers for that Wachaza - that is a beauty :-* :-* I will have a look around for one - meantime have ordered a set of the cp ones which Steve F pointed me to. All the best GDonk

There is also the House Teknes stuff from Wrath of Kings.

As far as I could see he's missing that one.

I have some Kromlech Hogmen heads which are designed for use with the GW Orks, and I like them a lot.

Cheers Brummie Thug - as far as I can see, as Wachaza says, that one isn't showing up anywhere obviously on the Rebel minis site

The Spinespur range got picked up by Rebel Miniatures. Unfortunately, the pig guy is not there. They do have a big hog though.

Oops. Should have read the whole page befor replying. Someone else already pointed this out.

Many thanks for that spect_spidey, those are very nice indeed and would work perfectly for a kit-bash
Unfortunately from this side of the pond an order of that size from your side of the pond is rarely viable (in my experience, others may have a different view), so unless there's a UK stockist it doesn't work.
All the best

Must have missed him the other day. I thought they had him. Thought it was weird I didn't see it.

I asked RebelMike to hold him off the site till someone mentioned him. Then put him up on the site so I could swing in like a hero. :-)
