Again based off the
same Fimir warlord figure. A little less
conversion on this one.
Cut the right
arm off, re-positioned it lower and did a weapons head swap with the mace that
is typically in the left hand. Removed the left weapon for the standard. Head is a
simple cutting of the original crest and replacing it with the topknot from an
Ork plastic head.
The banner started off
as, yep you guessed it one of my wife's earrings. See a pattern here? To be honest, they are a great base for a
variety of things so you should always give them a look when your significant other
drags you out on a shopping trip. One
piece of advice, it is always better to buy them specifically for this purpose
and not after she has acquired them to wear!
The hand at the top is from a 2nd generation Bloodthirster and some
cheap chain. Another great source for
chain is costume jewelry or in this case a gumball machine. For a stretch there they were selling this
very cheap jewelry in the prize ball and for 50 cents, you cannot beat them for
modeling! I wanted the shaft of the standard to look like it was made
out of bones. It is a two piece with the
lower section being made out of brass tubing covered with bits from a variety
of skeleton and zombie kits. The upper
part is a brass rod covered with the same bits.
It fits in and out of the brass tubing so that I can remove it to store separately. The skulls hanging from the chain are from
the 40k Khorne Berserker set. Overall an easy conversion which should be fun to paint.
