@William Redford Nice job, for better results you could always try the female barbarians' heads & torsos from Frostgrave, with plastic's flexibility shouldn't be difficult to adapt the upper to...
Excellent conversion, I hope they'll do a set of catapracts/clibanarii, their helmets were really cool, plus they would be perfect as early Byzantine cavalry. P.s. i saw a tutorial for textured pa...
@Mark Dewis I used DAP quick dry acrylic caulk that comes in a squeezable tube (similar consistency to tooth paste). Available at any hardware store here in the USA.
@BlutzeTo dear for my poor coffers, look at what you can get for that, but 100% bloody brilliant figure.

Detail display: Kaskett. The Girardoni air rifle is particularly interesting. Thirty rounds on tap in 1779! Examples were used on the Lewis and Clark expe...
Represention of a Grenzer at the excellent National Military Museum, Bucharest, Romania. Note "klobak" hat and "Hungarian" pants with knots. Note the wear of only low boots. No kn...
Still not a huge fan of the Valkyries. I think it's largely the helmets. It's a shame the plastics don't match the resin leader more... Who looks good: Sidenote - I got a few...
I'm in for the "Battle Party." I'm invisioning a Mordheim gang form the Tomb Kings/Arabia setting. I'll use the second box as a Christmas present. The sprue or two and resi...
Nicely done. Appreciate the first hand demonstration of compatibility.
@Geoff Maybury Am I the only one who thinks greenstuffing fur onto Orks would make for a good proxy for the ape men? I mean they already have ape like faces with the flat noses. Just sculpt some fu...
@Don Williams what are you using for basing filler there?
Just purchased another box of Irish Warriors (I've lost count on how many of these boxes I've built), and another box of Goths so I can get this conversion project under way. I will post pics of th...
Another great addition to this range. Please don't let this releae get in the way of the Franks, though. I really need those now! 😄
I've reported on this forum before that WA and GB plastic dark ages figures are wonderfully interchagable, allowing for lots of creative possibilities. This photo of a Goth chieftain (as yet unpain...
The Aravises look useful and are nice sculpts. The valkyries are not great sculpts, IMHO. I'm having flashbacks to WGF Amazons... Looks like there's a veil and non-veil version of each head in the...
Those are nice. Probably a little pricey for me to justify now that I have 10 Pocket Titans, though.
@Allan Lougheed ask around for people who have the WGF/Warlord Ashigaru kits. They'll likely have a a few unused plastic ones. This item: https://us.warlordgames.com/products/ashigaru-spearmen T...
I agree with you, Mithrill, particularly on both the utilitarian and symbolic aspect of the military objects ; and on the homogeneous rather than uniform appareance of them. I personnaly believe t...

There was a variety of vehicles at the settlement in Aliens.... A tractor would fit in / work great at whatever settlement your battling bugs in.
@JTam Got to be the opperators set the hinted at surly,
@Mark Dewis Another game we match what a oldy but a cracker.
That my brother is brilliant. Tapestry filled it`s great thanks.
@Mark Dewis well close but no cigar I guess. I found a site called steelfist miniatures that sells cast Yari but they are low on stock. I wrote them to find out if they can cast some more. ...
I think Reaper has some Reaper Bones “Greys”... 👽
This relaunched. KICKSTARTER LINK. I am in again at the Garrison army level. Though now they have little $10 sets that net you 2 sprues of plastic and a resin leader.

The Germans look good. Like the guy with the grenade bundle. Looking forward to the French, game, and any other further updates.
@Geoff Maybury Sci Fi tractor would be a great kit. Tons of uses: Terrain, objectives, Necromunda, Genestealer Cults, Death Korps of Krieg artillery tractor, etc., etc.

Giant rats with associated small rats would be a goer, I reckon. Maybe 6 giant rats plus a bunch of small ones designed to group together on swarm bases. 6+12? Horse sized rats don't come up as mu...
Honestly? The customer base is fractured so much about what LOTR minis should look like that it really doesn't encourage ANY manufacturer without the official license to do them. Outside of genreri...

The Tams as a WW1 British kit head option does make the most sense. It's roughly the same as the Senegalese heads in the French one in terms of kit versatility, and wearing of the kilt in action wa...
@Grumpy Gnome Kind of waste for WW1 British when they could have them in dedicated WW1 Scottish set with kilts:
Please for the love of all thats good and right in this world someone make plastic grey aliens so I can get the heads I wanna put on those halflings! Or maybe just a sprue with alien heads
@H M I will agree it’s an aesthetics chose, I won’t argue with you on that anymore. To answer your first actual question, given the only more or less positive conversation I have seen ...
It's got a strong Turok vibe. But could be any lost earth setting. Hollow Earth humans are very often depicted as North American type tribes. These guys have muskets, though, which is uncommon in ...
@H M Always do the projects that the muses suggest.
We'll know more when we see the sprue and if it has more humanoid arms and legs as an option, but I can see Kroot arms (which I have a bulk ton of) fitting that torso very well. WGA Lizardma...
I've dremelled his crotch out so he can have pants and not chain. The guy to the left will get the chain covered over with putty for a tunic look. Uplifted chimps probably make for useful spacers....
Tractor would be an excellent kit.
@Allan Lougheed I'd not say those are particularly close. A bit short and the wrong sort of spear head (lozenge instead of straight). Looks more like a cut down European boar spear to me.
Those tripartate ones are a touch fancy, though. Mostly they're just single blades.
There is also warlords plastic samurai and Ashigaru sets, the samurai set in particular comes with options to make everyone either sword or spear troops, so lots of extra Yari spears. They might b...
@Steven StGeorges Yeah, it’s probably just the equivalent of a cow for the giant spider race.
where is that pic from?
