Doing something deranged! (Converting WH40K models to D&D Bandits)

in #hive-189497last month

Good evening all!

So lately me and a group of friends have been playing D&D, and we are enjoying it greatly!

However! We are short on models 🤔
We have of course our player models
(Who were special ordered from Dragonfire, check him out on Instagram!)
However we do not have proper enemy models. And unfortunately we have already slaughtered all the goblins 🙈

So! The DM has given me a task to create some bandits!

However, as we are very much poor, I couldn’t simply get stuff printed. So I went down an even more insane route-

Thinking on my feet I remembered I still had some Genestealer Cultists which I wasn’t using- soooooooo- one thing led to another and here I am with 8 almost fully converted bandits 🤣

And what do bandits need? Some crossbows of course!

However, the Genestealer Cultists don’t have any- what to do!?

Simple! Here’s what I did-

Take the rifle/shotgun of choice and remove the obvious gun parts and fill the ejection port with some sprue goo (or just putty)

Next I take some old spare dangly thingies from the Cataphractii Terminator kit and slice them into shapes that will be the crossbow arms

Then shove something in the gun’s barrel to simulate an arrow/bolt and there we go!

For other details simply remove any Genestealer Cult items and sci-fi elements

Trust me this will look better when its painted 🙈

However that’s all I have in me tonight! Tomorrow we give them all hoods and capes and such!

See y’all later 😎

How is Legion of Komatsu doing?

If you're ever stuck for monster figures, there are always ways to improvise. A few years ago, I was asked to DM a game of D&D at very short notice.

I was able to finish up a small goblin warren I had half written, but didn't have time to get home from work to pick up figures.

So I stopped at a corner shop, bought a bag of jelly babies, and told the players they represented the monsters and they could eat what they killed. It was a fun (and very bloody !) game 😁

Hate to see some bandits show up across the room wielding a bolter. This is why wizards fireball rooms at a time.

!ALIVE

Don’t you hate it when someone answers their own questions?
I do.
