Griff Oberwald Conversion And The End Of The Week

Whilst I am still feeling lousy, I have to be up and able. This means that I am moving a lot more sluggishly today. But I am still moving. That said, I have no intention of painting but sitting at my bench was more comfortable than sitting in the sofa.
So over time I have gradually put Griff together. Although I haven't put the eagle on the shoulder pad, I have a plan for that as well. It wasn't that difficult to put together. Given that it is a gaming piece, I felt that I should pin pretty everything together. When they end up knocked down, there is a lot of falling over, turning over and standing up to be done with them.

My time yesterday wasn't wasted. I now have an idea for a few more figures. If I can find the right heads, which are in the bits box somewhere, I have an idea how to do The Mighty Zug and Zara The Slayer, although this is looking like a project for another time.

Anyway, The New Cruelty is unhappy. I haven't managed to complete the five figures despite the ones I ended to complete were already half-finished. The five are pretty close so I am thinking I will get five done next week and finish these off as well.

  2. Terrific looking model, Fred. I see you put a file to good use, and some green-stuff. Nice work all-round imho.

    1. Cheers...There is quite a lot of the original model still here. A few bits have been lopped off but the only noticable bit is the head. I thought there was very little greenstuff.

    1. Cheers Wouter, it's an Imperial Guard Catachan head. It seems to sell the figure even more.
