Petitgars that’s an excellent conversion, looks spot on to your chosen source. I do like the Draculas Americas settings and miniatures - you definitely captured the right feel with your work.

That conversion worked really well, I like it a lot! That set of goblins has lots of potential for use outside he LotR game - I use mine for ghouls and mutants far more often than for LotR.

Great first post, please keep adding your work as you go.

That is a wonderful conversion, if you'd not posted the original appearance I would have thought it was the actual model.

I would like to see a better photo.  You are doing yourself a disservice there.

Aethelflaeda was framed : what an ugly photo
Sorry, i'm not good for that. I try to improve.

Second one (was the first !), the Dagon priest's
(Arms from Frostgrave wizards, body unknown, head from revenant (from the Dark confederates).

I'm more happy with the rest. I'm currently working on the Dagon emissarie (the lady with tentacles ^^)

Very nice priest kitbash.  The photo is a bit better but i think simply using a bit more light would help.

The first "normal cultist" (blurry, sorry). It's a LotR goblin, add a hat, pants, shirt sleeves and go !

And the WIP (lady with tentacles, based on a Maow Miniatures (dress a kitty sculpting contest : http://www.maow-miniatures.fr/Dress%20a%20Kitty%20contest%202012.htm)

Cut the head, the arms, the torso (and reposition).

  lol

Really great models Petitgars, I admire your dedication to sculpting and converting. Next time your Greenstuff runs out consider getting yourself some Procreate putty. It’s a similar two part putty in grey but is much easier to use and holds sharp edges very well (you can also carve and sand it easily once dry).

I like the goblin wearing his/her Sunday best, simple yet totally changes the model (I keep meaning to pick some of those LotR goblins)

Keep up the good work,

Andrew

Thanks a lot for your kindness and the advices. It 's not Greenstuff (hate that). Some of old milliput (the cheaper). I will look after procreate sculpt on my local seller.

(I saw you use 15 mm miniatures : i'm impressed. I use sometimes 20 mm miniatures (Zveda and Italieri), for a excellent game nammed Congo)... But 15 mm !  :o
