Hi guys!

Thought I start with introducing myself - you can call me Jeff Vader and I´ve been an active painter on and off for the last 20 years or so. Sometimes very off.
But... I, like many others, recently got bitten by the Inq28 bug and has been stuck in somewhat of a converting frenzy the last few months. I´ve been quite active on the excellent Ammobunkers Inq28 forum, but some of these minis might be of interest to a wider audience.

Anyway - on to the pictures. Here´s a bunch of my latest creations:


=I= Mechanicus Adept Prokofiev =I=


=I= Assassinatrix Mlle. Pamina De Burgh "The Red Lady" =I=


=I= Ordo Hereticus Witchhunter Orff =I=


=I= Former Guard Officer Clintus =I=


=I= Ordo Malleus Inquisitor Mahler =I=


=I= Adept Priest Mangs =I=


I´ll post some more in-progress stuff when I get crackin´ on the next mini.
Which will be soon. Promise!

Cheers!

Great stuff, looking forward to seeing more

Beautiful!

Welcome to dakka. BTW those are totally ready for the showcase threads one click below painting and modeling.

Glad you like ´em guys!

Oh and, Darefsky - my plan was to keep everything in one thread where I can show everything from WIP conversions to the finished minis. The whole process so to say.
These pics were more intended as an introduction - there will be WIPs in here soon... ;-)

Ah . There´s a P&M blog subforum - I´ll post there instead... Sorry chaps!

Really awesome, looking forward to the next post Vader.

Awesome stuff!

Really nice work.

Okay, these are really awesome.

Oh. My. Buddha.

Nice stuff.

Love converted Inquisition models. They always have so much character. I think the Red Lady is my favorite out of the lot, but they are all phenomenal.

I love them. Your detailing work is great. There is a clear unity of concept here that binds the unit together in a way I really enjoy. Quintus and Orff in particular are really amazing.

That being said, I'm not digging on the converted cairn wraith. I think I've seen the cairn wraith turning up too frequently in Inquisitorial warbands of late. The work you did on it is great, don't get me wrong, I just don't think the idea is as cool as once I did.

Still, great stuff, awesome paint job, and great conversion work.

Thanks for all the positive feedback guys!

Jimsolo: Yeah I know what you mean - but I think all inquisition modelers want to have a swing at at least a few of the new plastic WHFB characters - they're just so well sculpted kits.

I'm going to post most of my new stuff over in the P&M blog forum so head over there for new stuff!

Unbelievable, inventive, beautiful conversions!

Gorgeous models. Instead of the Inquisition, you should call them Church of England.

Outstanding work can't wait to see more.

These are stupendous, I really like them.

Glad you guys seem to like them!

Here´s a few more:


Mutie


Ordo Xenos Inquisitor


Henchman


Henchman


Guard veteran


Chrono Gladiator


Crusader Captain

These are beautiful conversions! The Red Lady gives me some real inspiration for the Sisters of Silence I am working on... thanks for sharing these!

Wow the painting and modeling are top notch! I am jealous.

Simply superb work, good sir. Love the paint jobs, the modelling, pretty much everything about them.

Great work!

The new guys are as fantastic as the ones that you first posted. Would love to see a big group shot on some cool terrain!

Really great models! Wow! 'Jeff Vader' was inspired by Eddie Izzard's 'Death Star Canteen', I suppose?

Awesome work. I love your style !

Thank's a bunch people!

And yes, Mister Chaos - guilty as charged. I nicked "Jeff Vader" from Izzard.
BTW - I believe it's actually supposed to be "Geoff"... I prefer "Jeff" though...

These are all wonderful, but I really love "The Red Lady." All that death that she can unleash really makes me want some cake.

very nice work sir i tip my hat to you

Thank you for the praise and general hat tipping!

Here´s a few, slightly older, models:


Crusader Servitor Grotesquo


Crusaders


Crusader


Crusader








Henchmen


Ordo Xenos Inquisitor Rachmaninov

Hope you like!

Insanely cool!

Awesome work!

Haha! Thanks man!

This is a great collection of characterful miniatures that serve as an inspiration for all collectors and players of Inquisitor.

Astonishingly good work there - my personal favourites are the mutie and chrono gladiator, but they're all awesome...

Fantastic showcase! Keep them coming!

R.

WOW! These are mega awesome!

Excellent looking pieces. On another note, Jeff Vader, is that an Eddi Izzard refrence?

Some truely inspired stuff.

Wow...some seriously awesome conversion work. Very characterful and detailed. Things like this really tell a story just in their looks. Very cool.

Yeah awesome work. It is a good display of what the next level is.
Thank for being an inspiration!

S.

Thanks boys and girls!

And yes - it's a Eddie Izzard reference. I like that name - it's got a nice ring to it...

Yes it does. He is an underappreciated comedian in the states.

Great painting, excellent models, and delightful Eddie Izzard reference.

Also, in case you didn't know, Jeff, but this thread is the 2nd highest rated on Dakka at the moment!
http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/recentTopics/exaltlist.page

Oh wow! That´s really flattering!
I guess at least - I haven´t really got the hang of the exaltation process yet...

Truly inspirational stuff here, where did you get the legs/body for Clintus? I want to use those parts on my own inquisitor.

Fantastic work. Really impressive stuff!

Thanks!

Satans little helper: the legs are from the empire frre company and the torso is from the greatsword kit (as is his head)

Here's the latest additions to the retuine - two lowly mutants with a thing for candles.
The second one is made as a homage to John Blanche (as you hopefully can see).

Truly epic effort

Would that be a painting of John Blanche on that banner? =)

Awesome work Jeff, the homage to JB is a homage well deserved.

Thanks! That JB free hand is the highest degree of awesomeness.

This Is insaaaaaaane!

So when are these going to turn up in WD? All the characters are really beautiful. The two mutants make a great addition.

Amazing conversions with all this IQ work around I cant believe this has been missed, the paint work is stunning as well.

Awesome work and great modeling! I'm jealous.

Excellent, I love the atmosphere they generate.

Love your work. I have to admit I have been looking for inspiration for the Master of the Forge and your Mechanicus Adept speaks to me. Might have to 'borrow' that idea!

Thanks for all the kind words people!

I'm really happy about the great response the minis are getting. This is apparently the most popular thread on Dakka at the moment - which is extremely flattering and a tad overwhelming I must say... Everybody get their fifteen minutes I suppose...

Anyway... Here's a rookie partner I made for Clintus the former guard officer. The names Ace.



More pics on the blog: http://convertorum.blogspot.se/2013/05/ace.html

your conversions are really impressive Nice to see all those bitz go together.
great paintjob to!

Outstanding Work!

Love it man!!

Fantastic stuff! Crusader Cpt is my fave. (subbed)

Outstanding work.
I like the character names.
Clearly you have great taste in music .

That j.b homage is truely epic.

Awesome stuff, I normally dislike power arm mixed on guard but yours have a good blend. Great work !

Hi guys!

I haven't posted here in a while, but that doesn't mean I haven't been busy...

Here's a couple of the latest creations to roll off the assembly line:



Alberich - Squat engineer




Psyber Vampiress Comtessa Serpina Beltrami




Gun servitor




Angelc construct


And finally the first test model for my new eldar ghostwarriors:



Cheers!

Well, you may not have posted for a while but you sure made up for it

Love all but the servitor and squat steal the show for me can I ask what head you used for the squat and the torsos on the servitor

Great paint work as all ways and to be honest I had checked your blog a few days ago and saw these all ready, but its great to see them again

Very, very nice work!

Thanks man!
The squats noggin' is from the space wolf kit and the servitors torso is a cut down ork torso.

Amazing work! I especially like the Squat, very characterfull.

I thought I was right on both, amazing how well the Space wolf head works for a dwarfs also when you say cut down was that from the bottom part of the torso ?

Yes. Yes it was.

You are a man of many words but thanks any way

The Brontoglorrgs looks great by the way nice idea I considered something like this but was going to use Feral Ork bodies, but I think 40K Orks looks way better
Also the Arco Flagellant you were putting together "while on a roll " where is the head from on that guy plus he looks great i love the use of the robed legs work perfectly with the ork torso

Wonderful job man, good for you. I am loving this upsurge in Blanchian style modelling and painting -

Glad you like him! The head/visor/helmet is from the plastic nurgle lord.

Very cool. They remind me a lot of Blanche's inquisitorial warband shown in White Dwarf a few issues ago. Nice job with the converting and paint

Amazing stuff! Love the squat engineer. That eldar Wraithguard is stunning!
