WHFB: Ghoros and Centigors

When the last version of the Beastman book was about to release, there were a slew of rumors that Centigors would become a more viable unit choice. A Centigor is a cross between a Gor (A Satyr/Goatman) and a Centaur. Since I also wanted to try some of the more popular conversions for Centigors, I proceeded to convert up around 15 of them. Needless to say, the new book came out and Centigors got worse. But I had fun making them.

There were 3 types of Centigors I converted. The short squat Centigor are Gor bodies on the Medieval horse (greenstuff used to sculpt fur at the joint and the reigns and harness filed off with an xacto knife). The taller lithe Centigors (not pictured in this post) are Gor bodies on the Wood Elf horses (once more Greenstuff used at the joint). The heavy armored Centigor are Chaos Maurader horsemen with Gor heads, Marauder bodies, and Marauder horses (and greenstuff fur blanket to hide the saddles and joins).

From Left to right: 1 Marauder Centigor, 1 Musician Marauder Centigor, 1 Ghoros Warhoof, 1 Standard Bearer Marauder Centigor, 1 Medieval Centigor.

Grenadier Knights

I painted these when I was in High School, right before I took about a 10 year hiatus from painting miniatures.

WHFB: The Doombull

This was the general for my beastman army during previous army book. If I were to field a beastman army now, I'd use a beastlord,  since they have better leadership now. He used to allow core minotaurs, which was a pretty neat; now he gains attacks for each round he wins, which is also pretty neat.

The conversions on this guy consist of: cut off one of the axes and replaced it with a shield. The shield is supposed to be a door from some unlucky peasant's cottage. The door is sized appropriately for a 28mm miniature (to give you some idea how big this minotaur is). The second conversion consists of lengthening the axe so I could validly claim it's a great weapon. I added chains wrapped around the haft to give it some more detail.

For some reason the first picture did some sort of odd strobe effect with the lighting.

Scrachtbuilt Random Terrain

A random smattering of terrain. I think I dropped the well and it broke awhile ago. The hill was a test piece I never "implemented".

WHFB: The Ghorgon

Don't know if I've ever mentioned it, but I have a large Beastman army for WHFB. The centerpiece of the army is a Giant that has been converted into a Ghorgon. Originally he was just a Beastman Chaos Giant, but when the new rules dropped (5+ years ago) there was a few years before the official Ghorgon model was produced, and I didn't want to do what would amount to almost the exact same conversion to get a Ghorgon. So I added two more arms on the big buy. If I were to buy a "real" Ghorgon, he'd actually be a little on the short side in comparison.

This is the largest/most detailed conversion I've done to date.

WHFB: Treekin WIP

Once more, the paint is finished on these, but the bases aren't finished (hence the WIP label). These are the medium sized forest spirit in that pantheon. I have to admit, I have mixed thoughts on these models. At first I really didn't like them, after having painted them, I only somewhat despise them. The detail blurs into the bark while the overall form is rather ... hideous.
