Kommordore Deffgit and The Gloomwyrms - part 6: Blastboyz


After a bit of faffing I have converted and greenstuffed three out of the six Boltboyz that I have (thanks to getting two copies of Stormbringer Magazine issue 14 from Forbidden Planet!).

Crossbows are not very piratey, so I have made mine into "Blastboyz" armed with swivel-guns made from Kharadron Thunderers Aethercannon parts.

Originally I used plasticard tubing and greenstuff to make the swivel-guns but the tubing melted! I don't think I had used it before (I bought it from a model railway shop years ago) and I don't think I will use it again.

The Kharadron guns look much better anyway, so I'm okay with it.

Rogbat
Humourless and abrasive, Rogbat disliked most of the crew and was always quick to tell them so.





+++

Dursh
The leader of the swivel-gun team and probably the best shot, but even so he somehow ended up with the least impressive firearm.





+++

Umog
A troublemaker who delighted in starting arguments and fights. He never seemed to hang around when the punches started flying though.





+++

Stormbringer Magazine issue 9 provided a Swampcalla Shaman, so I have a second one in my warband now, though I doubt I will ever field both at once.

+++

Udrom Krowtoof
Underhanded and devious, Krowtoof never missed a chance to lie, cheat or steal to get an advantage. Through the use of crafty stratagems and treachery he always managed to come out on top.

These 4 orruks are already undercoated and on my painting desk. I hope to have them done before the end of June!
