Afternoon,
Finally finished a mini I started a while ago (this is actually the second iteration – I wasn’t happy with the first ones sculpting after I started painting so I scrapped him). He’s a massive bodyguard (or bounty hunter – or bodyguard for a bounty hunter!) with a huge, normally tank mounted autogun. I love the mini, but I realise he’s probably a terrifying prospect in the small skirmish games I play.
I’m really pleased with the mini though – he’s one of the bird men from the very excellent CP Models:
I had to file the neck area flatter, then sculpted the head, ears and horns. I managed to match the fur sculpting pretty well I reckon, he’s come out nicely.
Here he is next to a WIP Forged in Battle priest (who’s actually pretty tall herself), so you can really get the gist of his scale. Scary fella.
Nice conversion dude, he came out really nicely!

I look forward to see what you make of the birdman’s neck and head. 🙂

Nice colors on the Birdman. Excellent minis all around. Also really like the painted fur on the Bounty Hunter. He sort of looks like an Ewok, but it sounds like he is way too tall to be mistaken for one!

Ah sorry – the bird man isn’t mine, just a pic I knicked from CP Models (painted by the excellent Sho3box I think).
Thanks though, yeah – giant devil ewok. With a tank gun!

An inspired conversion… I like the fact that you did relatively little to the figure yet completely changed its species type and character. Also, that priest would make a good Mon Mothma, for those who are into such things…
