So here’s my Bray Shaman W.I.P.

Basically, I’ve taken an already assembled Gor model and fancied it up a little. First I made the base for the cape which was just a blot of green stuff. After it had set I applied detail to the cape by adding pieces of green stuff and giving them texture using a toothpick (for the fur) and a hobby knife (for the seams and stitches). I cut off the horns of another Gor model and affixed them using some more green stuff. I’m not really satisfied with the loincloth, maybe I’ll sand it down and try again. I’ve also added a potion made of green stuff to the Shaman’s belt.

As for the arms, I had to reattach them in order to put them in the position they’re in now. The next step is to model some fire in the models hand since I’d like to steer away from giving the model a staff. (I’d like to emphasize the beastliness of my Warband by refraining from adding ‘more developed’ magic casting tools like staves or wands on this model)

The model is far from done, but it’s a start. Let me know what you think of it.

So this is where the fun begins, I actually started putting together my warband! I’ve included a few pictures of two Gor models I’ve been working on.

I figured Beastmen mostly live in the woods so I wanted to give them forest related bases. I’m not sure about my Warbands Chaos affiliation and which God they worship yet. I am thinking of either Nurgle or Slaanesh. This will also dictate my painting colour scheme so it’s something I have to decide on soon. Perhaps you can help me out here since I’m somewhat new to the whole world of Warhammer / tabletop wargaming.

I’ve been thinking of what to do with my

For most crafting related stuff I tend to just grab whatever I need and start painting / cutting / glueing / etc. until I either get bored or I end up liking the result.

Not for my warband. Some time ago I made some quick and dirty sketches of some conversion idea’s I’ve been having. Soon I’ll blog more on the actual miniatures themselves and how I’ve started converting them. The text in the images is in Dutch, but it’s just a basic description of what’s in the pictures. Here’s some snapshots of the sketches:
