Hi, model makers.
I’ve been putting together a small chaos dwarf warband to fit the AoS system. The task has been amusing so far, despite my micro heart attack when buying them through forgeworld. The infernal guard arrived some time ago and during theese spare summer days I’m enjoying, I tried to make an historical approach to the hobby converting them in some achaemenid/hellenistic persian flavour (pics promised). The issue was revealed when I started to look at them so mounting and green stuffing mistakes could be corrected. OBVIUSLY, they are 13. Not 10, nor 15
I’ve started thinking about creating some sort of unit filler, but being them on round bases, base size variation must be avoided. The dwarf miner’s mule doesn’t fit a 25mm base… Any ideas on what to do?
Every advice will be much appreciated.
:hat off

What about a large infantry filler, maybe Avatars of war’s ogre of the apocalypse

with each foot on a 25mm round base

That’s a great figurine, many thanks gorgarrak! I’ll take it into account, but due to its quality it’s better to put it in a honor spot, like the skullcarcker or cannon. The two feet thing on the other hand is a bit inconsistent with the rest of the “base aesthetics” because it would be likely the only model to be that way. I was thinking on something similar to two carrying monkeys/baboons with some equipment or food for the journey, but I’m not being able to find this kind of miniature. Any ideas?

Some of the Gnobblar minis are carrying heavy burdens (one is carrying a powder keg/barrel, another a large pack of food supplies), you could use those and add tails and different heads to make slave monkeys/baboons.
