Mogsams Dwarf Goblins. Update:- Hammerer!

[MrDWhitey]

Kinda reminds me of that BBC kids show 'Little Robots' Which I do not watch.

Yes you do.

Hurry it up Mogsam, damn. I want it finished by tomorrow. With a base.

[rufus sparkfire]

Hey, that's cute! He's a happy chappy.

[ZeroTwentythree]

His head reminds me a little of Vincent from The Black Hole.

[Mogsam]

Death with a smile is more effective than angry death.

[Mogsam]

My Ironbreaker unit, awaiting the stealing of Whiteys shields.  :happy:




Mogsam

[Inarticulate]

Hehe awesome. Those helmets look like they're ready to break their owner's necks. Which is cool, very warhammer.

What shields are you getting?

[Merrick]

Blorc shields, I'm guessing.

Those goblins are hard!

[Mogsam]

Black Orcs don't come with shields. They can use them but you get 2 little face things that are busy with my chariots in my proper Orc army. Any shields I get are based upon Whiteys mercy or anyone elses actually. Saying that i'm about 10 minutes away from Eight so I might go smash his house in and nick stuff.  :happy:

Also, if anyone has spare blunderbuii from the milita set they don't mind parting with then i'd love them for ever.  :engel: We can work out a trade.

The blog will be updated in a few days, bought a gyrocopter and a bolt thrower.

Mogsam

[MrDWhitey]

Yeah, go get his shields. Let me be lazy.

I got plenty of those tomb kings ones spare.

[Merrick]

Saying that i'm about 10 minutes away from Eight so I might go smash his house in and nick stuff.  :happy:

Psh, bit further than 10 minutes.

Anyway, I have nothing worth nicking, and you dunno where my house is.

[Mogsam]

You live next to the firestation. There isn't that many houses. Also, had to go to Clevedon for a funeral - why i've got no work done, so i'm less than 10 mins away.

Mogsam

[Merrick]

Bummer on both counts then.

[Mogsam]

Update time! First off a big group shot of everything I have going, (except cannon and volley gun) i'm thinking its probably about 1,500 points now. The single ranked unit at the back is 50% crossbow and 50% guns at the moment.



2nd shot shows the fate of the steampa, it's a bit broken at the moment, fell over at some point apparently when I was away. I'll reglue him later, he's taken a bit of a back seat till I get a workable Dwarf army ready. He'll get arms when I can think of a way to make them work.



Finally, the gyrocopter pre goblinifying and the thundercrossbowmen. Any ideas on goblinifying? Also, yellow outfits for the troops or red?



Mogsam

[MrDWhitey]

Nice.

Now hurry up and get the Stompa done.

[Warlord]

I think the yellow /red mix you have looks great.

Can't wait to see the gob-gyro!

[Mogsam]

Cheers! I'm really enjoying working on them actually, they are so easy to paint! Lovely models.

Mogsam

[Warlord]

Mogsam

It shows. You have practically inspired me to do a very similar thing - I now have about 40 bodies like that, and a whole bunch of old night goblin heads. Of course it gets put to the side as a 'project when I have more time', but still  :::cheers:::

[Mogsam]

I have complete conversion block. Any idea how to Goblinify the Gyro?

Mogsam

[Merrick]

Perhaps some wolf pelt fur on the canvas of the rotors with green stuff?

[Mogsam]

I'm not sure on the physics but i'm pretty sure that would make it unable to fly.

Mogsam

[Merrick]

Oh no, not MADE of pelts.

Just covered in pelts.

[MrDWhitey]

Have random grots hanging off it, maybe one clinging to a rope. Small bombs attached to the hull of the Gyrocopter. Look at the rotor blades of the plastic 40k deathkoptas for ideas on blades (attaching stabby bits on rotors may seem pointless, but these are orcs/goblins). Greenstuff some orcish glyphs onto the hull.

[Mogsam]

Right this is how far i've gotten, picked the mentalist looking Goblin, given him a flying jacket and a pair of goggles. The two blocks will have glyphs (gliffs) on them, now i'm buggered out of ideas. The rotors seem to be made of cloth so theres no realistic way to add pointy bits really, I could add stiching marks to make them look cruder? The arm i'm using for his left arm could carry a small bomb or dynamite or something. Need to reattach the gun too somewhere, it's too close to his face in the origianl position.



Mogsam

[patsy02]

You just need some spiky bits on sticking out of the front and gobbo shields on the sides.

[Mogsam]

Comical eyebrows? Finally gave into Whitey..



Early stages of the head of the Dwarf Lord. Tbh, this picture is mostly for me, I wanted to see if I should shave more of his head off, probably should, gonna need a resculpt on the back anyway.
