Darkelf conversion Headcoach update

Post by Mick Moon »

Now here´s the Thrower from my DE-Team the Darkroom Dodgers:

ImageImage
This is a conversion of a Dark Eldar Grotesque. The arms are both
completly added from Darkelf fantasy plastics. The hand holding the
Ball and Ball itself is made of greenstuff. Look at his cool sunglasses
that makes im resistant against very sunny weather :lol:

Here´s a blitzer i made

this one i like the most because of the hair

all Blitzers are taken from the Dark Eldar Hagashin Minirange
-all arms are converted
-40k stuff removed
-shoulderpads added

the Line..

this minis are converted out of a darkeldar gunner (metal)
-removed original head
-new heads added
-both arms added
-shaped out shoulderplates a bit more to get the footballplayer look

i tried to get a look like the original linemen. A sixth lineman can be seen
at evil gits tbb-paintoff 3

i´m not happy with the result at all. Maybe you know this too, sometimes
you have a mini to paint and than more you paint it, you get the feeling the mini doesn´t like you and your brush.
This is one of these minis :pissed:

Great conversion work on all of them, especially the blitzer lady. Very dynamic. They remind me somewhat of art by John Blanche. The shading of the red is really well done as is the sculpt of the thrower's hand and the ball. Looking forward to seeing more of the team.
