Subject: Dave's new Hobby Adventure thread - Advanced Riveting for your Vault 101 dweller
Some of the artillary models are quite nice and could be remodelled to be holding a more appropriate gun?
Just an idea.
I have tried GS cloaks and they are ok but come out very "thick", even if I mix GS and miliput for added strength. Having said this your skills are way above my primative efforts.
Automatically Appended Next Post: Head looks spot on BTW
Automatically Appended Next Post: Also just for future refence have you checked out Spellcrow models, they do many beautiful heads, including some that would have fitted this perfectly.
uh oh..I have maybe 1/2 of 1% of the GS skill required to do this I'm afraid. I'll just have to paint the head to be finished another time..damn
But Thanks Cam, I appreciate it

yup, those are the pig-iron helmets.
also, DKoK commissars are possibly the most badass models ever released by anyone in the history of everything ever. ever.
*actually, the DKoK rough rider commissar is more badass, but was sadly limited edition... and to think, I went to the games day which he was sold exclusively in, and didn't get one... (no moneys)

Mighty strange hobbits where you come from...
Nice work on Michonne, you didn't exactly give her a pretty face, but the overall coolness is as high as usual.

Still a good piece of coolness, few minis makers do decent to great female faces for that scale. Reaper minis does, Hasslefree as well, I think.

Those Pig Iron heads are awesome. I've used PIP heads many times and I always like the results. I have been meaning to grab those helmeted gas mask heads but still haven't. W/ my return to Necromunda and wanting to throw together a generic gang of Hivers I might revisit that idea.
