COOL LOOKING STUFF! I especially like The Wheel of Pain. Have FUN with the painting et al.

I've seen it mentioned before &, as I have no idea what it is, what is a unit filler? Does it count for something?

The general idea is to save you money and time necessary to make big units. In my opinion, it can actually make your army unique and more interesting.

This is how it actually works:

Thanks for the explanation.
The Grave Guard Guys look TERRIFIC...WELL DONE!

very nice unit filler!! came late to this thread really like some conversions great job

Thanks, I am glad you like it

Unfortunately, I've run out of black in the middle of painting. Now I have to wait until monday or tuesday to finish it

Finished!

I post a couple of conversions for my new undead gang. I don't have as much time for my hobbies as I would like these days, so I guess it will be the last update of my Mordheim log for a few months

Dreg Igor received cool & shiny halberd:


Ghouls:





Boris the zombie. I am quite happy with his ripped off hand, broken leg and kind of awkward pose:

WOW!

It's not only the paintjob that does the work, but the sculpting and posses of your models are: Outstanding!
That's the real spirit of Mordheim, giving your models a real unique feeling!

You sir, hit the rightspot

COOL...you dug up some reinforcements for the Count. The Lads look great on their lovely bases; the positioning of the Ghoul on the steps is particularly effective. Boris is definitely the coolest of a cool group. Keep up the FINE WORK!

wow, Boris is a great zombie conversion, full of " life "!

Long time no see Finishing my university degree and starting playing another two great wargaming systems, I have not achieved any progress with my Mordheim projects during the previous year. I have started with Lotr and Warmaster and both are really neat. If you are interested, please check my WIP blogs for Lotr: http://www.forum.specialist-arms.com/index.php?topic=5412.0 and Warmaster: http://www.one-ring.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=50&t=25598&hilit=paboook

But I have not deserted the City of the Damned! I play another campaign with my trusted witch hunter veterans. Now I am thinking about starting dwarf treasure hunters gang, as I have collected a lot of the excellent dwarfs from the 1990s. I was thinking about starting old school dwarf WH army, but I feel strong disappointment with WH in the last few years. Small Mordheim gang could be a nice compensation. So here we go, this is my sellection of miniatures for Burlock's Red Noses:

Burlock, engineer Donar Kraksson (has a crossbow on his back) & troll slayers



Clansmen with swords and shields & crossbowmen



Clansmen with great weapons and thunderers with pistols

WELCOME HOME! You certainly have a FINE Gang of Oldies there. Have FUN with the painting et al.   

Oh boy! Love those old school dwarves! So much character!!

Oh jeah! Especially when compered to the new Warhammer miniatures like these   

Hej paboook, welcome back, and what a superb entry for a comingback!
I LOVE Oldschooldwarfs, as you might have noticed at my sons of karak dolgt thread, and man , you have some of the finest dwarfs GW and Marauder ever produced, nice bunch, now go and get some paint on ,damn it! 

Hehehe, oldskool Dwarves are freakin' adorable!

And I <3 Boris the zombie

I made some progress with dwarf treasure hunters since the last update. Still have to finish the bases and wait for ordered varnish sprey  Better pictures will follow after that

Woot! Looking forward to the better pics!

You can add an OH BABY to the "Woot"!   

I have finally finished bases for Burlock's Red Noses. I am pretty happy with the simple colour scheme. Next time I will probably add few dwarf spearmen to get a chance to strike first from time to time

It's good to see you back wielding a brush. The Old Vertically Challenged Ones look SPLENDID. Your color selections & brushwork are OUTSTANDING. VERY WELL DONE!  

OLDSCHOOL !!!!!!!!
Best dwarfs ever released!

Thanks However, you are definitly exaggerating my painting skill, DeafNala. This is very simple table-top level painting. With so many wargaming projects on the worknbench, I need to speed things up

After long time, I have decided to finish my Ostland gang. Most of the green-stuffing was done long time ago and posted here actually, but it seems that many of my old pictures disappeared from the Internet (I used to save them on ImageShack in those days). Here is my updated gang. Few other minis are still in WIP converting stage.

Elder & blood brothers





Some serious muscles





Kin & jaegers










Jaeger & ruffians

All the embellishments certainly aid to the character of the miniatures. They now have that Ostland rustic charm about them. The Lads have the potential for GREATNESS...have FUN helping them achieve their potential.  

They really look like poor (and a little simple) village-folk. Also some good combination of different kits and greenstuff.
That reminds me, can you have two ogres in an ostland warband after game one?
