I have to say I really like the understated look you went with on this one. Really cool detail on the sash and a natural conversion. Excellent.
a mixture of quick parts, sarcastic humour, reserve, and caprice.

Wow, I had a lot of catching up to do!
Love all the additions since I last spotted things which was your heretical chopping up of Gary Morley miniatures (looks amazing though)

Sorry about the hiatus all.

@beefcake, here's some more chopping up of Gary Morley figures for you!

This time it's a small squad of void troopers or mercenaries intended to accompany my Necromundan Cold Trader from back in 2019. I wanted to go for competence but not militaristic. Pretty happy with how they look! They're mid-1990s Van Saar gangers from Necromunda with head swaps.





More words and pics over at my blog.

They're absolutely awesome!  8)

The metal van Saar gangers were always among my favourite Necromunda miniatures and the headswaps you did give them an entirely different feel.

The paintjob is also great; the muted colours work well together and all those autoguns look the biz...
Miniatures you say? Well I too, like to live dangerously...

Those are very effective conversions and the figures really look the part for their new role.

Thanks all! It still amazes me that a simple head swap can do so much to change the vibe of a figure.

@Deaothar - I do love a sleek autogun :)

Really cracking conversions on those :) . The heads really suit the bodies and the excellent painting ties everything together :) . NICE :) .

Thanks folks! @Inso - I keep imagining that the blue boots are mag boots for low/zero G action :)

More cracking work as ever.  It's surprising just how much a head swap (and non-typical paintjob) can change the look of a figure.
