Hi all, I am building a sort of temple thing to display my daemon prince on, and I need some sacrifice victims! I need a couple of guys who can be modelled as being strapped to an altar and chopped up by a bloodletter. I thought about some chaos cultists, or some imperial guard grunts, but I'm not convinced by either. I have some (really old) space marine sprues full of legs and arms and torsos, but it didn't make much sense to me that they would sacrifice someone with full armour on. Although it's meant to be a 40k piece, maybe some WFB figures would be better? I just don't know, but I'm looking for some models which are NOT covered in armour or armed to the teeth, and that seems to be quite a rarity! (PS: Orks are out because I want something that bleeds red!)

Orks bleed red.

An Empire Flagellant would work, they even come with some stocks.

Guardsmen with helmetless heads being forced to kneel (using the heavy weapon sprue legs) could be a way forward?
Just a thought?

Orks do indeed bleed red, they changed it about ohhh...fourth ed.?

Have you considered Reaper? they have several models that actually have sacrifice victims with them.

Granted these are all female, but I think there might be some male ones too. (I just grabbed the first few i found out of laziness) You could have random bits of armor laying around the altar or whatever as though their armor was torn off of them prior to the actual sacrificing.

Orks bleed red? Seriously? That seems a little unrealistic to me

Some nice ideas there guys, thankyou, but I still haven't spotted anything which fits my vague ideas of what I want. I am wondering how har dit would be to use GS to make some arms and legs, strapped to the altar, and a big bloody mess in the middle where they've been butchered. That way I don't have to buy any minis AND I can get the pose right, but I'm not sure my GS skills are up to it ... if anyone knows of any tutorials for that kind of thing it would be great!

There are mostly female models for stuff like that. If you have no problem with model like that here is a topic to browse through where something might fit.

And as strange as it sounds there might even be some bdsm miniature maker out there who make something you could use. (This is just an asumption based on the posted topic. i have never searched for true sexual miniatures like that because i decided to sculpt my slaves by hand as i could not find much fitting stuff ... bound male figures are really hard to find)

Here's a few male torture victims. Not the best figs, but might work for what you are doing.

As miniature wargaming is a male-dominated hobby, most of the BDSM'ish figs are female, but there are male versions as well.

Also, there are lots of barbarian male figures out there that might be easier to adapt to dungeon victims by virtue of their minimalist clothing.
