Sci-fi civilians, outlaws and so

[pocoloco]

Very cool idea Suber! I will nick it for sure! But I will make mine tracked as I have just the parts for it

[YPU]

Bloody awesome!

[Suber]

Got it finished

I used the same red/green palette that I used on the mini:



Insisting on the Old West style, I managed to paint this sign:



Given the appearance of the mini, I tried to also write the name in Arab, but I was only able to find 'doctor' (according to Google Translator)



So the wagon itself ended up looking like this:



But now it was in need of goodies. Regretfully I don't have pans or flowerpots to add (well, at least not in the suitable scale... ), but my bits box had some proper stuff:






Not sure if I will ever find any use for this (in terms of rules for a scenario), but at least I have a silly item of scenery

Fine work Suber, the control looks ingenious. Will be surely a characterful addition to any scenario.

After looong time, back to the civilians!

I found a 17th Century soldier in my bits box, from an ooold project. Needed to do something about that! Afer some extensive surgery I came with the character of Armengol Perelmut, bounty hunter:







The following ones are from Hasslefree. This not-Starbuck looked gorgeous. Finally, a modern non-combatant mini bearing no oversized weapons! Vickee Sachaff, pilot for hire:



For the next one I replaced the gun with a chainsword. As it looked too massive, I thought of adding some kind of exoskeleton (it's just a piece of staple an some greenstuff...)



Finally, JB put me on the lead to the following character, the kind of people you may find in a port area, where sailors arrive after long time with no land at sight... (Medieval girl with some additions to make her sci-fi... ahem)



You can find it all on the blog:

I'm still in need of more civilians, so I'm on it. More coming soon...

She makes me wish I had three hands

That's a great idea with the ECW/TYW guy. Might have to makes some Gentlemen Gangers....Does any one make Guy Fowlkes masks in 28?

[Suber]

I'm sure there must be some Guy Fawkes out there, but I haven't been able to find one, sorry.
A new small batch today Won't somebody please think of the children?

It looked logical to me to see some children on my district; no matter if you are recreating port slums, little villages or mine workers tech-habs, for sure you will find some kids in the area. Hasslefree offered me the chance to do this:





I was looking for plain kids, nothing too bizarre. These have slight conversions on the clothes (and wires!), but I didn't want malformations or that stuff. That doesn't mean they are going to be just happy little house on the prairie



The only concession to weapons I tolerated were these two, as the sculpts already included them (just swapped them with sci-fi guns)



I may add more children in the future (and I may try a more Blanchesque approach), but for the moment these are enough for my purposes.

Another chapter closed, no to the new one

Rogue Miniatures?

Fantastic stuff, very creative and well executed. The pedlar's van is particularly great. Also, loving the use of random non-scifi minis and adding just small touches to make them appear 'right' for a scifi setting.

[Suber]

Thank you! The process is quite enjoyable, I love doing that (despite the final results... )
Anyway, this time I found an easy solution: Ramshackle!

This is going to be an Imperial Tax Collector (or another kind of Administratum Clerk, you know)



I was in need of mutants. I already have some xenos and beasts, but no muties, and I think they are quite a cornerstone in urban Warhammer.





A Servitor for dock working purposes:



A wannabe Batman grouppie (with an Aquila instead of a bat )



Evil monkeys! Because they look so cool   (minor conversions on the weaponry so there aren't two identical ones)



Besides, Curtis was so kind to include two copies of this one:



I was going to do two siamese sisters, but I discarded de idea in favour of another approach. I cut the mini in two (torso/legs). I remembered I had the legs from a Zombicide mini (which I had turned into a crawling zombie torso); I also kept an Escher leg (have no idea of what happened to the rest of the mini ). Sooo, when you mix it all...





What could I do with the remaining legs part? Well, I also found an Eldar female torso and a Cultist head from the Dark Vengeance box. So, you know...



So this is it! More dwellers for the Besenval project...

[dijit]

Those last two are great!

[Suber]

Thank you! The raw materials were damn good, Ramshackle minis are really interesting stuff.

[commissarmoody]

Nice, really need to get more civilians  .

[Suber]

An experiment for today: I found two WHFB Chaos Warriors in my bits box (no idea how they got in there!). No clue of what could I do with such minis, so I had to improvise a little...

What if they were some kind of merchants, or maybe pilgrims...?





I finally opted for the pilgrims (I wasn't ready to build their stands if they were going to be merchants!). Once you have a clear idea of what you want, everything comes easier to mind, so I finally got this:





I went through an orange palette; it's a colour I don't use that often, so I thought it could be nice.









Here you have them too:

Now for more stuff!
