Decided to take the plunge and create my own blog. Here's my first offerings:

Mutant denizen. Crypt ghoul with a green stuff hairdo and Kroot rifle bits.



Meet Big Head Red. Prospector, sump guide, and part-time bounty hunter. Ogre head added to a Ork nob bod.




Ash Waste Road Warriors. Ork War Buggy with twin stubbers mod and extra bits.
Gunner's head from a Chaos Marauder.

That ogre head works so well on the ork body, I really want to copy that conversion now. Great to see an ash waste vehicle as well.

Wow these are awesome. What are you using them for? Necromunda? Gorkamorka?

Necromuda generally speaking, though they make great proxies for Chaos mooks.

dude them be pretty sweet models, extra cheers for that warbuggy, looks ... right

That "big Red" ogre/ork-conversian is freakin' brilliant. Any thoughts on whether or not it would work as an Ogryn as well?

Big red is cool, works surprisingly well adding at head to the body.

I like the muties gun too.

Looking forward to seeing some more stuff

More Ash Waste Road Warriors WIP

Motorbike. SM scout bike with Ork harpoon bit





Fire support. 1/35 scale German Ketterrad. Not sure if I'll stay with the armor shield up front

Kit-bashed IG Helicopter. Basis of model comes from a 1/32 scale Testors/Hawk Huskie helicopter kit.

Completed Ash Waste Raider Biker

Cool conversions and nicely painted. The buggy and biker have this cool mad max post apocalyptic feel to them and the worn and dusty look suits them well.

But i have to say that i don't like the massive front window of the helicopter and the Kettenrad looks kinda strange. But the original model looked strange to begin with.
Have you though about building a rollcage for him and drill holes into the front of the windshield. This would fit nicely to the rest of the post apocalyptic stuff you have here.

I have revamped the kettenrad radically. I reversed it so the rear is the front and vice versa. It's almost done, so please stay tuned for an update next week, I think you'll like it.

As far as the massive front windshield on the copter, well, so much better for the Inquisition or Commissar to see heretics and deserters with.

Ash Waste ML carrier. Kit bashed from a 1/35 scale Tamiya Kettenrad model. I reversed the model's direction where the rear is now the front and vice versa.



Next, I have a WIP Escher gang biker. I'm torn between naming her Black Maria or Helen Wheels.

Yeah it definitely looks better reversed.

This ash waste stuff is great, I'm working on a couple of bikers myself. The escher bike is a nice model, I'm using Ramshackle ones which look similar but I prefer those. I would change her head though, I think wyches work OK as escher except when it looks too much like they are just wyches painted differently, and with that head you have a very distinctive Eldar look. A traditional motorcycle helmet would look cool, I know good female heads are hard to find.

Are these all for the same gang?

Introducing Femme sans merci Rhoda Hazard.

I like the look. Nice work on the warbuggy, that thing really drew my attention.

These are really cool, great stuff! The motorcycles are my favorite.

Thanks. I'll multi-purpose them as needed. Escher bike gang, mixed biker group, Ash Waste raiders, or individual bounty hunters/slavers NPC's.
That's what I like about Necromunda is the interchangeability of mixing and matching underhive scum

I take it back completely about the eldar head, painted in hazard stripes it just looks cool. And I like the biker leathers as well, good effect you've got there.

Latest addition to the Biker gang; Purple Rayne.

The bikers are fantastic. The hazard stripe lady could have gone wrong but you have knocked it out!

Current WIP: Bike raider with Sidecar. Kitbashed from Tamiya's 1/35 scale German WW2 bike kit.

What a brillian thread! Instantly subscribed!

I especially love how you take those disparate kits and transform them into something with a decidedly original and individual look! Fantastic work!

I'm quite amazed as how good those 1/35 bikes fit with the scale of GW minis. And the colored bikers look really awesome. I love the hazard stripes.

Peachy Sureshot and Iwilla Killenaul



The whole biker gang...So far. More to come.

Simply brilliant, mate!

WIP: Ash Waste Bounty Hunter Biker Team

Necromuda Guild Convoy truck. I used several decals to create the guild insignia on hood with a diamond, skull, and spade icon. They represent (excuse my clumsy Gothic Latin) Fortuna, Mortis, Fate, which roughly translates into the Guild's motto: Fortune versus Fate and Death, or commonly referred by hivers as: "The odds are two to one to staying alive long enough to get rich"


Guild Truck was kitbashed from a Revell 1/40 scale US army truck. Back bed was replaced with a modified Valkyrie cargo bay. Side sponsons are from the IG Bastion.
The truck's original cargo bed was made into a trailer to haul goods and arcotech to interested parties across the Ash wastes of Necromunda. The truck can also double
as an Ash waste Raider gangs's mobile HQ/ Mother base.

Very cool, great job making it look 40k. But stop working so fast you're making the rest of us look bad, I don't think I have painted anything in the time it has taken you to do that entire gang.

That truck might even be big enough to be used as an Ash Waste Journeymen's Crawler. Although maybe they have to have tracks.
