Ye Olde Inn

So, I thought I would share with you all some customized miniatures.

First up--Female Dwarf.

I took a DDM Dwarf chick, cut out her middle and various other pieces to size her to scale with the HQ minis. I then used liquid green stuff on her until all the crevices went away.

Next--the Heroes





I basically drilled holes and applied liquid greenstuff until they looked like they do now. Not happy with the hyper-detailed photos, though. Makes them look like they're made out of ugly.

Last--The Guardian of Grin's Crag



Basically, I had a broken Gargoyle, and thought that I could make a "Crag themed" version for KK. I got a vulture-headed one in the end. Also includes bits from GW crap.

My favourite is the HQ dwarf. Classic pose for a dwarf warrior.

My thoughts exactly.
The Dwarf is my favorite among a bunch of great work.
You did well there.

Ha! I was also thinking the same. Awesome job on the Dwarf. I also love the Barbarian's battle axe.
That guardian looks scary! Cool work!

the dwarf is my favorite too now im gonna hafta start cutting one of mine up

One more cheer for the dwarf! Frekkin' awesome!

AX-BATTLER! So THAT'S where the Barb got to!

Are you telling us you SCULPTED that ax?!

The two axes were made by using a razor saw to sever bits, and cut down toothpicks; a pin-vice to make holes in hands (use a knife to carve a cross over the spot on the hand you want to drill down through to add the spar for the axes--use the center of the cross to anchor your drill head). For the dwarf's arm, I cut off the old one, carved off the elbow, connected back on by pinning wire between holes drilled on each, and then flexed it into the position I liked best. I then filled in the arm with green stuff.

I'm gonna have to buy me some liquid green stuff. No way around that.

You can basically just smear it into the cracks, and then brush it off. Because I wanted to create the female dwarf to look like a Heroquest miniature, I even went so far as to brush it into her details to dumb them down a bit.
