Spacer Conversion

Following up on some other sci-fi stuff I've done of late, I worked on a conversion over the past weekend that involved a Star Wars plastic miniature body and a metal head from the Aegis sci-fi ganger head pack. The body comes from a Rodian that was part of the SW Anniversary set WotC put out a few years back. They had square bases instead of round.

When I do this sort of a conversion I am always creating a model I would want as a character in a role-play game. In this case, this guy would be for a Bulldogs game, but he would also make an excellent scum for Dark Heresy. The Bulldogs rules allow you to start with a Companion, so I included a cool Reaper robot figure as this guy's right-hand man.









I went with a weird ganger tattoo on his face for some extra character.



Of course, I had to add a knife. What self-respecting space adventurer would find himself without a close combat weapon when his blaster charges run out?

And here's a comp shot with yesterday's Acheson Saurian:



Thanks for visiting the site!
