Probably from the WHFB range, rather than the 40K range, as the musket looks a little more delicate than I'm used to. Probably an earlier figure. So I suppose he's more accurately a reheaded goblin. (Grots, gobbos, and squigs, oh my.) Nicely done, whatever he might be. Great crew you're working on there. The Ordo Maleus figures and the adventurer scout are long time favorites. (My scout's about due for a dip and strip, seeing the glory that's been about lately.)The Composerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14009448596738385017noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-560709119022789110.post-68598780154298436042014-11-24T20:10:42.427+00:002014-11-24T20:10:42.427+00:00If I can make BOYL 2015, I would be up for some IN...If I can make BOYL 2015, I would be up for some INQ28.The Responsible Onehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10377870574546599439noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-560709119022789110.post-66568947499174734402014-11-24T19:01:57.187+00:002014-11-24T19:01:57.187+00:00Very nice work on the scout, and the mutie looks p...Very nice work on the scout, and the mutie looks promising as well.<br /><br />I have been lurking the Ammobunker forums since before they had a dedicated Inq28 forum, and have been ...er..."harvesting" some of the most interesting models and concepts and putting them in my <a href="http://www.pinterest.com/lasgunpacker/" rel="nofollow">pinterest boards</a>Lasgunpackerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13529298072677726064noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-560709119022789110.post-763520542582711492014-11-24T18:18:03.726+00:002014-11-24T18:18:03.726+00:00Grim and hard-bitten: just what's needed for a...Grim and hard-bitten: just what's needed for an Inquisitor and his lads :)axiomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11598298167403563382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-560709119022789110.post-78737139277431046882014-11-24T17:19:35.430+00:002014-11-24T17:19:35.430+00:00Lol!Lol!Whiskey Priesthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15956327711660800903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-560709119022789110.post-15977968267454273862014-11-24T17:18:38.414+00:002014-11-24T17:18:38.414+00:00Yep the little cutie is the little mutie!

I'm not sure if kitbashing is quite the same as old-school converting (the modularity of modern plastics isn't the same as hacking apart good old lead).<br /><br />I've had the grot / gretchin / gobbo in my trade pile for ages, then I just had one of those moments where it clicked!

The creativity on the forum is quite astounding and people just keep coming up with wonderful conversions. I think the most impressive figures are the ones that take a figure that we are all familiar with and present in a new and surprising role with subtle conversions and part swaps that bring them to life.Whiskey Priesthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15956327711660800903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-560709119022789110.post-54226375822113151242014-11-24T15:20:48.662+00:002014-11-24T15:20:48.662+00:00The gunslinger is really cool, the dark colours wi...The gunslinger is really cool, the dark colours with rea don guns and headscarf really make him stand ! <br />Mutated stunties like the one you did are brilliant, I dond't know Why I never thought of giving a normal head to a goblin body to make some sick gnomes but yours is just brilliant.<br />The inq28 scene is indeed fascinating in many aspects and its creativity and ability to come up with unique models is mindblowing. i totally share your view though and don't mean to slavishly follow John Blanche's style. God knows I love the man's art and I do love adding some red ad checkers like any other guy but I'd rather keep a personnal take on this as you did. <br />As for kitbash, it often gives birth to excellent models and does wonders when you have that particular idea in mind, when it's just sticking anything's head on any other thing's body and giving the rsults guns and various bits, I'm less interested, in the end painted models are always good models in my eyes though ;)<br /><br />Asslessmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09475252828835332056noreply@blogger.com
