A new character for this side project. Sir Alric Farrow is another evil Lieutenant. As seen in the rulebook and official illustration/miniature, he is an ironclad warrior as well as a magic user. Quite a combination. My pal provided me this mini (remember, from the Reaper ranges):
 |
| The warrior and his amazing magic sword! |
The conversion was simple. Rather minimal in fact. I took the shield apart (and repositioned the wrist), added a Bretonnian head (without the helmet crest, which had to be replaced with some greenstuff) and, facing the impossibility of totally recovering that sword, no matter how much boiling water I used, I eventually replaced it.
 |
| Now he reminds me of that 40K Emperor's Champion... |
The paintjob couldn't be simpler too. Metals, blue garments and a puny attempt of depicting red energy glowing from the fist.
 |
| Looks like he squished strawberry chewing gum though |
Given that it's a quick job I'm happy with the result. Those metallics look fun in the pic, but work fine in hand, so no sweat, another character done and I can move onto the next one, hehe.
Oh, and on the World of Twilight stuff. And the comic. And all the other projects...
Ahem.
The blue is perhaps a bit ... too bright.
ReplyDeleteBut it is a nice conversion and a great save for what otherwise looks like a mediocre miniature at best.
Hmm, I think it's mostly the pic, but it's true that I went specifically for a bright blue, looking for contrast with the armour.
DeleteThe conversion is simple yet effective, so I'm pleased with the efficiency rate :D
Looking much better!
ReplyDeleteThanks! It was quite a quick & easy work, I didn't want any complication, just getting some actual progress on the project :)
DeleteQuick, easy and effective, and I hear that the 'storm of bubblegum' spell kicks ass! Nice job mate :-)
ReplyDeleteHaha, that's quite a sticky spell!
DeleteThanks!!
Very cool Suber :) You've improved him immensely!
ReplyDeleteThank you! I hadn't really noticed the potential of these Reaper Bones minis before. There are some really sweet raw materials for interesting conversions, I need to explore their ranges...
DeletePues una conversión fantástica, queda genial :)
ReplyDelete¡Gracias! Como ves no tiene mucho misterio, pero creo que le da un toque curioso :)
DeleteLooks like a medieval version of a GI JOE villain. Your conversions are making my imagination run wild. :)
ReplyDelete:D :D :D Haha! Best. Description. Ever. :D
