Superb!

That is a great conversion, lovely smooth work and the painting is top drawer too.
That face is so characterful.
 :-* :-*

Great idea too.

Most of the images in this thread are broken. Not displaying. Is it just me?

All working fine for me.

Incredibly good sculpting and paint job. Very cool figures. The ones first in the thread works well for rouge trader but when I first looked at them I thought they were for Dune.

Thank you all! :) I'm just trying to catch the RT experience and do silly stuff and populate this urban area with the kind of people you don't usually see on the boards. It's difficult to find a coherent line of clothing design, as I just pick whatever random minis I can find from here and there; hence the not-Dune looking guys just next to a techno-fantasy scribe ;D. But well, I guess it's also part of the roguetraderesque essence, the 'eclectic approach' :D
I'm planning on adding protesters and guys like that to face some arbitrators. In fact that was my original idea in the first place! All this has just been a diversion from my plan! Oh my... ;D

I have no problem with the pics, does anybody else have the same issue? I'm gonna review the links just in case...

New stuff today. But first things first, I have to thank Cheetor, who so generously gave me these minis away. Man, you rock, thank you! :)

I'm talking about these beauties:



I went classic for the Administratum guy:



Just b/w, the addings beong the checkers, the two stripes on the chest (maybe some rank insignia) and the Administratum sigil on the robes with the tiny "a" inside.

I made the rest the local bailiffs for my particular setting, so I made up the colour scheme and stuff, in order to make them look clearly different from the Arbites guys:









Here you have them all:



And of course, here you have the blog post:

Back again with some unexpected stuff. A friend gave me away these Eldar:



Oh, my. What was I going to do? (Apart from starting an Eldar army, which for the moment was not an option ;D). A little kitbashing offered this aspect:



Then I saw their purpose (which I hadn't thought of until then!). Underhive pest control. For sure those lionrats and teracockroaches in the sewers need some tough guys to be in charge of the situation :D.





Here you have them too:

Indeed it is.
And you are making me think of those extra Eldar crewman that I have as 'useful' all of a sudden!

I wasn't sure about the naked conversions, but the painted figures are great! Very inventive use for them :)

Good heavens, this thread keeps dishing out the win on every page.  Excellent work on those no-longer-eldar.  There's some neat old eldar figs out there that would make excellent similar conversions.
