Wow, cool guy with bazooka!

Thanks Ockman!

I took time out from the mutie project recently to do something completely unrelated by recreating a lovely but under-sized and crude early 1980s sculpt. The sculpt in question is the Star Lane Space Pirate girl from Citadel's 25mm Spacefarers range:

(Figure painted by Greblord at Little Men)

I converted up a later Citadel Barbarian/Norse model to hopefully give me the same character in 28mm scale and stylistically matching Rogue Trader era sculpts. Here's the unpainted conversion:

And the finished figure:

Hope you like her! More words and pics over at my blog.

Very nice job. I would not have taken the time, but then I'm lazy.

@has.been - I enjoy adapting and making figures, so it's no waste of time for me

A brilliant rendition of the old lass.

It is always worth taking the time to make something original, I reckon.

Straight out of Buck Rogers, I can almost hear the space disco music in the background.
Good job.

Wow, that's some dedication!

That was certainly worthy of the effort. You have done a splendid job on the conversion and the paint. Nice one

She is great. 300% improvement over the original.

Thanks all! I think the original figure was a pretty standard quality of sculpt for the scale and era. I just like matching up to late 1980s sculpts as the quality markedly increased, but I can just about match it with my own sculpted elements

And I'm back with the scum/mutie cult with another weirdo. This guy is based on a Citadel Gothich Horror peasant. I added the rifle, pet (I like figures with pets) and holster.

More words and pics over at my blog.

Wow, last few posts have been fantastic.

Your metal converting is quite amazing - you've got such a good eye for how parts will go together.

The tweak on the barbarian lady is really inspired though, smashing.
