A little something I've been working on for Troll Forged Miniatures. The basic idea was that I wanted to make stuff without having to spend money on it. Cheap as I am...well that and the fact that I've already spend hundreds if not thousands of euros on GW stuff in the many years that I've been addicted to it! I just wanted to try something new. Hence producing these weapons from nothing more than every day things such as lighters, pens, pieces of plastic, insides of broken electronic stuff and so on.


From left to right:
Top: Rifle with auxiliary grenade launcher, rifle with scope, pistol, right handed heavy bolter (needs a better name);
-One below: Rifle, rifle, pistol;
-One more below: Portable autocannon, flamer, left handed heavy bolter;
-Bottom: Rifle, shotgun, stubber.

Some new ones too:

Nice work. Really like the lower rifles.

You've given me some ideas. Thanks

very nice do you have any lascannons buying those pisses me off.

Lascannons? Not yet, I did work one something that kind of resembles an assault cannon. I'll try to create a second heavy weapon sprue which will have primarily anti-vehicle weapons.

By the way, I started working on some new heavy weapons:


Can anyone say gatling cannon?


Twin linked flamer (Storm Flamer? Heavy Flamer?)

those are nice. and i bet alot cheaper then buying them lol

The only thing I pay money for is the glue!

But yeah, let's see how the first set of weapons will do (as in that they are going to get cast and maybe even sold by Troll Forged) before I send these babies in!

interesting project Mal'..
are they as fiddly to do as they look?
keep up the good work

Sorry, English isn't my first language...what does "fiddly" mean?



Re-worked the heavier rifles and added some improvements and details to the other ones!

Sorry, English isn't my first language...what does "fiddly" mean?

it kinda means big fingers with very small parts ,imagine ...er..some thing like a whatchmaker ??? ..

Yeah basically! The parts are really tiny and I'm working ghetto-style here!

Great idea. I'm in the money saving mode, and am desperately looking to add a havoc squad to my small, but growing, CSM's. This is always cool to see that it can be done.

Check out my Machine Plague thread in the blog section here. You can do some crazy stuff with just pens, lighters, radios and vast amounts of glue!

those are really cool.
