Conversion work : Ambushed and Scalpted !
« on: April 22, 2015, 07:50:10 AM »
hey boys,

here it is my last creation based on the following material :



A plastic celtic torso and legs, a bald head (celtic ?) and a crest from Vitrix hoplite...and a dixon 28mm  7YW casualty.

that's give us, this conversion :

A huron jumping from a tree and falling on a regular soldier.



Could be use as a "scalp marker" for "Song of Drums and Tomahawks".

Cheers
Eric

thank you James.

i'll had more details in my blog about the work.

That's take me less than 20 minutes to create this vignette.





the paintjob will give the final touch.....of the conversion.

Cheers

Agreed! That is going to look excellent and very atmospheric on the board.  I would never be able to tell it was a conversion -- looks perfect....!
