Furry conversions for Frostgrave and Badgers & Burrows et al.

[FionaWhite]

On that note:



This little kitty seems to have hair. Is it made out of greenstuff or is it Erma's head?

[Chris Abbey]

That's an Erma head.
They will be made available separately for conversions, once we have got everything from Kickstarter shipped out to folks.

[FionaWhite]

Neat, thanks for the answer.

Last weekend I tried my hand at converting some on the new Frostgrave multi-part plastic wizards into rat-mages using Albedo Miniatures Critter Conversion kits. I've added these to my anthropomorphic conversion gallery

Last week we added three new packs of Critter Conversion Kits.
Mice, Bareheaded, Mice, Conical Helm & Mice, Cloak Hood.
Each pack contains 5 heads and tails to enable you to convert some miniatures into bold, mouse adventures!
'Long live Redwall!'

At the weekend I did a few quick conversions to try out the new Badger heads.
They are all based on Fireforge Teutonic Infantry and are going to serve in my Redwall Abbey themed Saga Age of Magic Army as a Captain and a pair of Paladins.

Any chance of more female heads like Erma's and the two female rabbit officers
in the future?

[Chris Abbey]

Yes, we will certainly be doing more character heads and some of those will be female. The majority of our heads are 'gender neutral', they become female if you put them on a female body. It's very difficult to tell the sex of a rabbit by looking it in the eye, (unless you are another rabbit, perhaps). In Albedo & other comics major characters are differentiated by giving them hair to make them stand out, but 99.9999% of the Albedo females do not have hair cuts.

Just made a quick video looking at making some unique conversions with plastic Frostgrave parts and 'Critter Conversion Kits.

This weekend I've completed my first unit of 'Redwall' style mice using the Wargames Atlantic plastic halfling sprues plus some mice 'Critter Conversion Kits'





I've just written up a hobby blog about it that includes a short 'You Tube' video, @ http://wargamesbuildings.co.uk/Hobby-Blog/Redwall-Mice-Conversions

[Munindk]

Uhhh thats very nice!

I have a box of haflings that I have no plans for.. I'll have to pick up some mouse heads

[von Lucky]

Loving them (along with the blog/YouTube write up).

[Chris Abbey]

Over the last few months I have been working on a pair of armies for fantasy tabletop gaming with Saga Age of Magic, Thud & Blunder and Frostgrave themed around the Redwall Abbey series of fantasy books.



In the world of Redwall the forces of Evil are often a verminous hoard of rats with the occasional ferret or stout for variety and the forces of good are the Redwall Abbey mice together with woodland allies, often in the form of military hares from the 'Long Patrol'.



In my last hobby blog, we had taken a look at the start of my Redwall Mice so this time we are looking at the Rats of Gabool the Wild, notorious king of all sea rats. All of the miniatures (apart from the rat swarms that are 3D printed), are conversions of platic or metal 28mm miniatures using Albedo Critter Conversion kits



Lots more photos and details in my hobby blog@ http://wargamesbuildings.co.uk/Hobby-Blog/Redwall-Rat-conversions

[Chris Abbey]

I do like to have variety in the miniatures that I use both for Role Playing Games and Tabletop Skirmishes.



I particularly like to be able to set the scene with groups of villagers, who are not heavily armed or in aggressive poses going about their village. This sort of figure is always a bit difficult to track down for historical or mainstream fantasy so doubly so for anthropomorphic villagers. I was very excited when I first heard about the 'Folk Rabble' set that Fireforge Games were planning as it sounded like they would be an ideal base for conversions for both lightly armed militia as well as village folk going about their daily business.

I've added an article about the conversions to my hobby blog @ http://wargamesbuildings.co.uk/Hobby-Blog/Woodland-Villager-Conversions Which I will update as I get them painted.
