Looking for ideas for a twisted 'Snow White' figure.
« on: December 23, 2014, 10:46:33 PM »
One of my projects for next year will be putting together a few small Chaos Warbands using my old skool figures.

One of these will consist of some classic Chaos Dwarves and I am looking for a suitable 'twisted' Snow White figure to use as their champion.

I have a few options in mind, including making my own, but wondered if anyone had any ideas for miniatures that I do not know of?

Perhaps WK's Kristen Weisz?



A suitably chaotic paintjob could make it work.  Perhaps add a few scales or tentacles with greenstuff?

How about Rasputina from Malifaux? Couple of alterations and she could be pretty good

If you want really twisted use zoraida instead !

There's always the actual twisted Snow White from Tale of War's "Altered Tales" series.

Although she actually looks less altered than most of that line!

There seems to be a Twisted Faerie Tale movement afoot. I picked up a couple of Reaper & Anime Tactics minis for my Snow White, Crime Lord, & Evil Rapunzel, but I'm still searching...WK's & the Tale of War ones look cool.

Incidentally, that's one of my favourite designs for a fantasy dwarf. I wish there were actually more available like that!

Thanks for the suggestions so far, chaps.
Some very interesting figures there.

Not sure if any of them will quite work with my intended Realm of Chaos Dwarf band but the WK mini could well give me a good base to start a conversion from.

You could try one of the assorted female warcasters/Warlocks from War Machine or Hordes. Some of the Everblight models might do the trick. Hard to find a modern sculpt which will match with 1980s GW/Citadels sculpting style I'd think, although some Reaper Miniatures might match rather well?

Not wanting to plead against my own pocket (she has a sister btw that you might also find of interest), but I feel the OOP lahmians might be a good base too. This one practically has a sexed up snow white outfit and would only require a headswap. It has the bonus advantage of coming in mounted and unmounted version:

If you click the Miniature Imperium picture at the bottom of White Knight's post, it will direct you to his on-line shop.

Don't Copplestone have a Snow White together with some not-Slipknot dwarves?
Miniatures you say? Well I too, like to live dangerously...

That was Foundry in the Street Violence range. Could have been sculpted by Copplestone though.
So many projects..... so little time.......
