I wanted to try and keep with Jes Goodwin sculpts for the majority of my Mordheim possessed warband. This is a little tricky as most of his fantasy miniatures are either armoured or elves, or both! The brethren have been causing me a few headaches (being low-rate humans with minimal armour and poor quality gear).
I ended up starting with a couple of converted figures for this first pair of brethren, and I'm hoping they might provide a template for future additions.
The bare-headed brother is probably familiar to any of you who saw my Confrontation project - he's essentially just a scavvy with new arms. The arms came from one of Jes' classic beastmen:
The second brother was simply an over-sculpt of the same beastman who donated arms to the scavvy. I sculpted the robe and hood using Jes Goodwin skaven as references, then added a few more details just to add interest to the figure.
A simple line of putty across the cheeks has allowed me to render the beastman's face as a bestial mask. The sculpting isn't as crisp as it might be, but it's good enough!
The paint jobs follow the scheme I've already established with the earlier figures. The brethren are marked out by their red masks - something I'll aim to repeat on any future brethren.
It's looking like the Mordheim campaign weekend is going to be pushed back to Dec, or even early 2027, but that suits me - I've got quite a few more figures I need to get finished before then!
