These models seem so much more characterful than the original Necromunda Scavvies, Scalies, etc. As for the Nurgle Orks, WOW!!

You guys

But seriously thanks m8s, comments like that really warms your heart, its a great feeling that you know someone appreciates your models and i never thought the nurgle orks would get such great feedback and im glad you like the tophat to, in my opinion theres nothing cooler than a big ol`tophat.

I also have to thank ghostly for the nose idea, i think it turned out pretty well, though im not sure about the lamp, looks a bit to simple to me, but if anyone has any other ideas on what to with it that would be great since i really like the thought of him having a lamp

But anyhow on to the pictures


Lets start with the boss with his brand new nosejob





And the back solution on the scaly



And here are 2 new scavvies that im working on, still very wip though










Hope you like em

like em?? i love em! and the nose looks great
i also like the lampost. it does look simple, but its impressive

the two WIPs look very promising!
is the 4 armed one a servitor of somekind (guessing fromt he necron arms)
oh and how maleable is your GS? mines quite old, but im not very good at GSing. what additional tools do you use? and how on earth did you make a top hat!!!!!!!!!

Please tell me that last one is going to have a bowl of chips balanced on his gut.

They all look great! I like the big nose too.

Only good things can come from those two WiPs.
I noticed you were using Renegade Ogryns from FW for your Scalies. If you were ever to add to the gang, maybe try some plastic Ogryns? I don't know if you maybe prefer resin, but I'm guessing they're of a similar size and build.

Keep up the good work!

Wow, just wow.
It makes me proud to participate in this hobby.

Way to go and keep it up.
I am so far getting just getting into Necromunda.

I'm thinking of using kroot as a base for my conversions.

On the two new scavvies, where did you get those hooks from? They would work perfectly for a project Im working on...

Ohh I like the nose on the leader.
Please do shorts with some sort of braces on the chubby one that sits on the ground.

Once again im at a loss of words from all the kind comments

And ghostly i have to thank you once again, without you i would have never thought of the idea to give him a big nose

Ok then on to some Q&A

is the 4 armed one a servitor of somekind (guessing fromt he necron arms)
oh and how maleable is your GS? mines quite old, but im not very good at GSing. what additional tools do you use? and how on earth did you make a top hat!!!!!!!!!

the 4 armed one wont have metallic arms, i will try to make them look fleshy with the hooks grafted into the flesh though thats tomorrow nights project. And when working with GS i always use a little more yellow when trying to do organic textures and more blue when making armor and clothing and such. And the tophat was actually quite simple to make, first i flatened a piece of greenstuff and stuck it to an orkhead that i had cut in half and let it dry. Then i rolled a barrel of greenstuff and used a clayshaper to give it the forms and details. My camera just died but as soon as i get home from work tomorrow ill take a picture on the sculpting tools i use

I noticed you were using Renegade Ogryns from FW for your Scalies. If you were ever to add to the gang, maybe try some plastic Ogryns? I don't know if you maybe prefer resin, but I'm guessing they're of a similar size and build.

I used the renegade ogryn cause of the mutated appearance of it to minimize sculpting plus it had a cooler pose than the regular ogres but im thinking about sculpting another one from the regular ones since i have some lying around.

Please tell me that last one is going to have a bowl of chips balanced on his gut.

Haha that is an awsome idea! and in one hand hes gonna hold a streetsign that says "no humans"

I'm thinking of using kroot as a base for my conversions.

mixing the krootkit and ghoul kit is an excellent choice if you are playing scavvies since booth had a ton of coollooking mutantbits and weapons so you go for it dude and let me know when you have posted some pics

On the two new scavvies, where did you get those hooks from? They would work perfectly for a project Im working on...

the hooks are from the marauder kit from the banners you get in the box, a friend of mine let me have them when i looked through his bitbox.

ok this is easily the coolest thing ive seen in a long long time beats stuff ive seen that would make someone steal candy from a baby just to see them. it beats models that have had work lavished upon them. and do you know why? because it has a top hat!!!!!!!!

these models look great! did you use ghouls and gretchin for the basis?

What a feast this plog is! I'm loving the wacky, menacing, slasher Halloween vibe here. And the greenstuffery is first rate.

Necromunda seems to bring out some of the best, most twisted conversions. Like a boney finger beckoning us out off the lighted porch, into the night.

Have you thought about doing lyrics for Rob Zombie?

Indeed very inspireing and jawdropping work
that scravvy boss looks like an grumpy old man XD love it though

Cheers

HOLY CRAP! Those are fraggin' amazing.
I want to add some conbstructive critisism, but I can't think onf anything. I'm blown away by those conversions!

Love the combination of parts on the ash waste gangers. I'm so gonna steal that.

I like how you use the kroot rifles, they fit in really good. The gask mask on the warboss is pretty cool too. With the barrel on his back he looks a lot like the Forge World demon prince.

You should call the warboss with the tophat. "Da mad hatta"

Once again im at a loss of words, i would never in a million years think that my conversions would get such great feedback and when i read your kind comments i get such inspiration and motivation to continue modeling, so once again thanks a million everyone <3

Really sorry though for the lack of updates recently, modern warfare 2 dropped like a bomb in the mailbox last wednesday and i havent been able to stop playing it since then but im glad to tell you that know im back on the modeling track again

So tomorrow ill post the pic of the sculpting tools that i use as i promised and some new wips on my new scavvies.

Anung an rama, be my guest and steal away and i actually took the idea with the barrel from the FW daemon prince since it was such an awsome model and the gasmask on the warboss is made from a turbine from the new stormboys that fit perfectly on the warrbosshead. The scavvies that i have made are a mix of ghouls and grots and some parts from the flagelant kit. Then ive just extended some of them and filled the gap with greenstuff and sculpted robes and rags on them.

Im also really glad you like the scavvy boss, i guess he really does look like a grumpy old man like you said Lf666 and so far ive been calling him "King Samedi" cause of the tophat bu "Da mad hatter" is a really cool name to! Like tha bad guy from batman

And ghostly since you, like myself is such a huge fan of tophats (lets face it, nothings cooler than a really big tophat) i think youre gonna like my next project that im starting as soon as my scavvies are done. Ive been checking out Anthony Case deathcult rules for necromunda and got an idea for how to make them. Since they seem to be something like a graverobber/voodoo cult i was thinking a gang of darkskinned warriors clad in ragged shorts, long delaquish coats, dreadlocks, skullpainted faces and dum dum dum TOPHATS FOR EVERYONE

I've been showing off your work to the sculptors over at Troll Forged Miniatures, hopefully they will get inspired by your mutants because...well...let's face it, they are pretty damn awesome!

If you want scary long haired top hat wearing dudes, go watch Six String Samurai! I mean, how can you not love this?

if you ever come to... no let me take this in swedish, om du kommer till gw göteborg så skulle jag vara ärad över en match

Cheers

LFF666

If you paint even half as good as you model, we're in for a real treat here.
The new scavy boss is pure win. It's amazing how you got that gun look so different with just a simple conversion.
That hook-handed guy looks very BioShock-ish. Nice work so far.

dreadlocks? long coats?



top hats?

(i think im in love)

Shockwave, vi åste åka till Göteborg nån gång och spela nu när du är bjuden, jag följer gärna med det vet du.

Count me in as well.

Könnt ihr diesen Scheiß bitte lassen und eine Sprache sprechen die auch jeder versteht.

This is ... making insanely good sense to me right now ..

Really nice modeling skill, I wait for more .. to bad i cant GS like that Can i buy your skill for 200 theoredical dollars ?

Of course we can write it in English so everyone else understand, Anung Um Rama. Shockwave got an invite from Liveforfun666 to come to gothenburg and play and I say to Shockwave: lets go! Because Shockwave and I is in the same playinggang.

Hey ! How about I talk in icelandic ? No?

lets keep it in english so that everyone and understands and is happy


have some bad news though, my camera is broken and i probably wont get a new one until monday so no new pics until then

Wow malika, im really honored that you have shown my conversions to a serious company, it will be really fun to hear what they have to say and i just downloaded six string samurai which i must say seems like a really badass movie!

Liveforfun666 my brother actually lives in göteborg so coming up there wont be a problem though i cant come up now in december cause i have to work pretty hard in december and whats left of this month but after that it wont be a problem

And Anung you are spot on when you say that it looks bioshockish, i got the inspiration from the bio shock concept art book. And we`ll see how my painting skills are these days, its been a while since i painted but i can post a pic on monday if i get my new camera so you can see what my last paintjob looked like

And Gretar of course you can buy my gs skill, just send 200 theoretical dollars in the mail and ill send you the skill


but hold out until monday guys and there will be an update with new pictures

Serious company? I mean, sure it's a serious company (if you want a more "serious" company I think something like Avatars of War would fall under that, now those are pros!), but it's also a sculptors collective/family sort of thing. We hope to become this hub where sculptors can have their stuff cast, but can also learn the craft if they are interested to! Join our forum if you're interested! You and Icesword could probably come up with quite some interesting stuff since he is producing infantry kits like a one person factory at the moment. I think some of his upcoming stuff (especially the mutants and mercenaries) will interest you, especially when Ed (the guy running the show) will be able to cast the stuff in plastic (hopefully after the x-mas holidays)!

But to get back on topic, what are the upcoming plans for your stuff/ Will you also make some terrain for them to fight in?

sorry
and late note on your nurgle boy, it looks awesome!

Cheers

LFF666

*Also i need to start with this necromunda, seems cool
