Fantasy miniatures convertablog: Gnomes

Nice fishmen. Are they converted from GW models? What are the components? I would love for GW to add a merfolk army to Warhammer, it's something I've been hoping for for longer than I can remember.

Nope they are not conversions, they are Privateer press Bog Trogs.

Cheers.

Leornado, donatello, raffael, michallangelo? Sorry about some of the spelling.

I meant for the reac (i.e in place of terrortoise) lol, but that's not the firts TMNT reference I've heard... infact I had 2 before I even got any photos online.lol

Nice conversions, great idea I agree about the sabre fangs, but I think it looks good. My only issue is that their feet like out of proportion - was it a conscious decision to make them smaller than the hands? I'd be tempted to sculpt curly pixie shoes, but that's just the way I roll.

The feet are smaller b/c gnomish feet have adapted through the generations to making their way through caves and caverns that have a lot of rubble, stalagmites, and such on the floors that make it hard for big feet to find footing. Unlike plains where the extra leverage of a longer foot is a welcome speed boost and helps with stealth by lowering ground pressure, the underground environment means better speed and stealth is realized through smaller feet avoiding obstacles.

Got around to getting some paint on the dwarves, sorry about the picture quality, new camera in bright sunshine didn't work out too great, but there are better shots of the individual models on my Blog.

If a mod could change the title of the thread to Fantasy warbands I would appreciate it. I tried but it wont actually change the thread title in the main forum.

Cheers.
