Let's talk a moment about juves. Specifically, which models are best suited to representing them in the game. While browsing posts on Facebook, I came across a picture of a juve converted from a Karsus the Chained model from Shadespire. The axe was replaced by a combat knife and the open hand with a stub gun.

Spoiler:

I decided to copy this for myself and snagged a model on eBay.

Spoiler:

If I need more Goliath juvves I can always snag another Shadespire model. But what about Eschers and Orlocks? What models are available that would make proper juves for those gangs? I don't see anything in GW's line but what about other companies? Is there a specific model that would simply work well as a juve for our favorite (not)Lizzies? What about the Orlocks? Do any companies make a good model that would fit their look? What are you guys on Dakka doing for your juves?

Im just using the basic models with simpler haircuts for my Escher juves. So, everyone with a pony tail is a juve. Simple enough. Paint could also be useful. Outside of that, Eschers seem like they might be hard to find alternatives for...

Im sure you could a little something something with a dark eldar kit and some witch elves for eschers.

Orlocks though possibly the plastic chaos cultist.

Most people are using the current range of Chaos Cultists as stand-ins for Cawdor or Redemptionists since they're dressed with hoods & shawls and rather look the part. Once those two gangs make their appearance, I expect I'll use some of my Cultists as juves for those two.

There are other places to get Sci fi ladies. Hassle free for instance could be entertaining.

I just picked up some Skitarii Rangers to use as bits for Arbites (need some Genestealer Cultists, too) and possibly Van Saar.

I wonder how Blood Bowl humans would work as Enforcers?

Hmm... How about witch elves from Dark Elves range as Escher Juves?

Spoiler:


Do basic head swaps and give them auto-pistols and voila.

That's a pretty good idea, Dweller! Dynamic looking, too.

I will probably just do my entire army - depending on which I settle - with the classic combo of Catachans and Empire Militia.
