Necromun Days


 It was time to clean out my cupboards. Amidst the heaving piles of crap, I managed to find a few of that most precious of hobby supplies - spare bodies!

Spare torsos means conversions in my book, and Necromunda being my current fixation, I set to work with clippers and art. 

First up - a monthly freebie from GW. The nice lady in the store took pity on my embarrassed daughters when I dragged them in, and gave each of us a copy of this Darkoath warrior.

I pulled the arms and head off this one and turned it into an Escher ganger

This one got religion and has joined the Cawdor ranks

An original Space Ork plastic body! Makes for a perfectly decent grenade-launcher scum, squatting to deal with the recoil no doubt. Marauder head, Genestealer Cult backpack.

This guy is a Genestealer Cult torso on viking legs, sporting a Marauder Horseman cloak and Guardsman arms. 

He's clearly dangerous, look at that cloak.

More GSC spare torsos, this time with a Van Saar head and a Scion plasma gun. His legs are half a Heroquest mummy, which works better than I expected. He's probably got leprosy under those wraps.

More Heroquest bits, an antique Ogre from the Ogre Horde. Various bits of Ambot, GSC quadbike and Mechanicus terrain have turned it into a Lugger class Servitor, the specialist brute for House Orlock

An original plastic Squat! He's got a space marine's bioscanner wired with thin plastic tubing from a sandwich bag tie, wrapped round the antenna from one of the Sector Mechanicus tractors. He'll potentially see use as a Brute Handler, a Hanger-On most often found in Goliath gangs. They get them cheap, but anyone can pay to have them handle their Brutes and make them resistant to pinning. 

Together at last! And for an eternity in the box until they actually see use, I suspect.
