Done some conversions to complete my GCW troops with NCOs. It seems I have done this ages ago - I tell you never start your own business and move flat...

So here you can see the "Red Hans" and his evil twinbrother the "White Heinz".

As you can see he got his helmet changed with putty for a cap and got some trousers. As well he got the armypockets and waterbottle removed.

I have done some more conversions with WWI Germans to add some machinegunners (helmets removed) and another NCO (just a head sweap).

Sorry no front pic at the moment, as I have lost the pics somewhere on my discs...

GCW? Don't recognize that one... it stands for German Civil War? You doing a post-WWI game (i.e. Freikorps & the like)?

Very nice job, by the way. Especially with the cap - you must've had to grind off the helmet and sculpt the cap, but it looks perfect.

Lazarus,

very nice job! Look forward to see more

THX! Going to post some more in the "near" future.

GCW= "German Civil War"; correct history-sience term: "revolutionary postwar cirsis" with battles, uprisings, riots and coup de etats form Nov. 1918 to Nov. 1923.

Did a couple 'command' minis for Dwarf Rangers for Lord of the Rings SBG. The rangers needed a Captain & a 'Banner'

Captain:

'Banner': Battle Horn:

Pretty simple, but tutorial on it here: http://laughingferret.blogspot.com/2011/10/conversions-for-dwarf-rangers-for-lord.html

Okay, new dorks.

Started off with this old figure as a base.

He was basically a "small" dragon-man (called a Neophant) from the first Mage Knight set ever. He was useful as a small fighter and point-filler to round out a dragon-man ("Draconum") faction army (most Draconum were and are big, expensive figures), but which had become mostly obsolete. Time for an update! A friend made some updated dial designs and I took it from there.

I stripped the stock paint off a pair with acetone, then went to work:

For the first fellow, the straps are layered electrical tape, with some metal trim. The round stud bits are finishing nail heads I snipped off, the pauldron on the first fellow was a hollow filigreed metal bead that I cut into quarters, layered, and added a neck-guard fin from styrene card. His sword was an old spearhead, with a nail for a pommel and the grip was simply filled in with epoxy. For the second fellow, the scimitar blade was done in styrene card as well, with a greenstuff hilt (that hilt is not my best work

). The belly plate was a flat bead, the jewel and belt studs were just epoxy drops, and the belt itself is more electrical tape. The fur is greenstuff.

Finished versions have been posted here.

2 new foundry Saxons turned into Mountain men....a few century later on a new continent...

.

The guys on the left wear a fur cap now and the wood stick sculpted by foundry (?) became a big saw.
The hunter get a Redoubt rifle and a scratchbult knife on his belt.

Light conversion work but a great result. The paint work will give the final touch.
