soo i am poor right? and since forgeworld is so f-ing overpriced i dont have enough money to buy the knarloc models for my tracker kindred .
so i thought i'd make my own !
basically i made the body out of sculpey, ovened that and then did details arms and heads out of green stuff. now dont call them bad just yet because this is the first major sculpt ive ever done and also I really screwed up the head but ill redo it dont worry. I still have 4 more to do and i need some kroot riders and he needs a new head but other than that stumpy(the shaper cuts of the knarlocs useless hands) is done.

It's look very good so far. I hope I can see the final product soon.

okay so heres the new beak for thew shaper's knarloc and i also fitted him with his gear so hes done. Then theres the femme-knarloc with the tail armor and all she needs is her saddle and both need riders....other than that and the fact that i need 3 more they are done lol . Okay if anybody wants a tutorial i can give one..but its probably not worth it for you guys.

sorry for the double post but i just had a realization that they look like chickens.....this must averted with the next 3....

I dont know why, but they scare the hell outta me! Damn good effort imo, far more than id be willing to put in And IM CRAZY about my Kroot

The only thing i would suggest would be the Spines on the back of their heads could be done better. What you could try is using Tooth Picks stuck into the back of the head. Stick them into the right spots when your making it but remove them before you oven it. Then just stick em back in after its done. It should make them even more Kroot looking, as the spines are one of the main features of Kroot.

Im looking forward to seeing these all finished up Also i wouldent worry about them looking like Chickens, thats what Knarlocs remind everyone of

next!! oh and im also throwing in my little chaos nurgle preacher(its my first scratch sculpt!)

I always thought these would be good beasts for kroot to ride so am converting one at the mo...

okay - who makes those - they would be great for rough riders (aka the ones abnett describes in one of the ghost novels).

they are by mongoose, part of the Starship Troopers range. I recently got 6 of them cheap off ebay.

bubber in which omnibus/book are they in? coz its not 'the founding' or 'the saint'

thing, knalocs look like chickens anyway ^^)

i have starship trooper mongoose models! : )
