A Load of Conversions

 It's nearly Christmas Day, and what could be more festive than some random models I've made out of various sprues? The answer is "almost anything", but that's not going to stop me.

First up, a couple of jolly fellows from the merry land of Blognia. On the left is a peasant girl, made from the ever-reliable Perry Miniatures Afghan sprue. To make her smaller, and turn the model's coat/shirt into a skirt, I cut the feet off above the ankles (as high as possible), and cut off the bottom of the model's baggy trousers. I then drilled two small holes and glued the legs back into them. Her gun is from the Afghans and her head is from Frostgrave with green stuff hair and a shawl-type thing on her waist. 

The satyr is simply a Frostgrave demon. The demons aren't my favourite Frostgrave models, to be honest. They're a big bulky to mix well with other plastics, and they feel a bit cartoony. I get that Frostgrave isn't a horrific game, but they still look a bit goofy to me. Anyhow, he's a satyr.

Then, moving to space, we've got a maniac and a sniper. The maniac is a Wargames Atlantic Chinese Boxer soldier body with Frostgrave Cultists 2 head and arms. The Cultists 2 sprue is great, by the way. The sniper has a Bolt Action USMC body, a Stargrave head, and Perry Afghan arms. 

These next two are female soldiers from the Stargrave Mercenaries 2 frame, with arms from the Bolt Action USMC sprue. I really like how they've come out, especially on the random authority figure on the right.

Here are two noir-style private eyes, who I have named Laura Norder and Polly Sofficer. The bodies are Wargames Atlantic Gorgnards, with GW arms. I think the hats came from a Civil War sprue.

And finally, we've got a mystic leader for a Stargrave crew. This guy is an old metal Gates of Antares miniature, with a Stargrave Scavenger head. While Antares never seemed to take off, and the models weren't very exciting, a few of them are really nice. 

And that's it for now! I hope you have a very Merry Christmas, and get all the models you hoped for. Thanks for reading and see you soon!
