Ancient German Warband Conversions (1 Viewer)

[RupertM]

Thought I'd share some pics detailing my current obsession with converting Ancient Germans from Weston Mexican Peasants.

I have several units of TSSD Germans and wanted a few more warbands that looked different to represent other tribal contingents hence these conversions.

The Weston Peasants are good value and easily available figures that paint up very nicely and convert well.

Super Glue holds the cut up pieces together very solidly which makes everything easier as no need for pinning etc...

The troops are based 3 up on 7cm plastic building card squares that are around 2mm thick. 12 stands to a unit.

Mainly home made shields and bought in spears from Fireforge Games.

I am also working on Gallic and Dacian armies using these Weston figures to fight my A Call to Arms and Italeri Roman armies.

Superb job! Great imagination in using those figures for your conversions - goes to show there's no limit for thinking out of the box!

Excellent work, I was think about using some of the Weston figures as Saxon peasants. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for your comments. I think they would work well as Saxon peasants.

Nice work! I used these as Napoleonic Spanish guerillas.
