Very nice work. It is great to see painted examples of original idea.

Those look great! I always want to convert minis and these work well.

Thanks again! I'm going to play around with the different heads I stock with the different plastic boxes and see what else works. I'm trying Gripping Beast Plastics next. I really want to try some Fireforge, if anybody has spare guys lying around (just one of each type) send me a PM, I don't want to open a box of 48 just for the experiment  :D

Nice work on the hair Annie. I have always shied away from the bald heads for fear I couldn't do hair. I may have to give it a try now.

On a related note, have you seen the new Brother Vinni Viking women? I know, Brother Vinni usually doesn't do clothes, but these are attired pretty much the same as the Frostgrave figures.

I have. I have a whole shop of suitably attired women too :)

But I'm also all for making existing miniatures into easy female conversions, especially with the beautiful ranges of plastic models already out there, which is what this thread was about. As there are so few plastic female kits out there, troop building can be hard (or expensive)

I realize you do. I thought you might be interested in adding these to your inventory.

I'm all for kit bashing as well.

Annie

These really do look great - I am gonna have a look on your website :)

I really do like the move away from Amazonian looking fantasy women models, which just look a bit daft (and pervy!) IMO (and a bit chilly for Frostgrave!). The gals really do make for some nice variety. Would be good to mix and match them throughout warbands so as not to get same sex groups all the time. Variety is key!

Great effort.

No worries Red Graf, it was late and I wasn't sure if you were already aware of it! I don't stock Brother Vinni so won't have them, so is a direct jobby (or anyone else he supplies to).

Cheers Bert, yeah mixing about is my favourite, and most realistic!

I might paint up a few more as chaps. Wildlings on Game of Thrones is a good reference.
