frogbear:

So I have 2 units outstanding to help me complete a Chaos Dwarf Warmaster force and I also have a unit to complete for the Dark Elves.

First off is the Lammasu. In this I like to support Australian retailers where possible. I purchased my full Chaos Dwarf Army off Eureka Miniatures, and while there I investigated what other models I could make use of. I came across these:

This one screamed out to me that the head was perfect for what I needed



Nick from Eureka pulled this one out after I had almost given up finding a suitable body for the Lammasu



These wings come as standard with the Chaos Dwarf Bull Taurus model he has. They would have to be cut down a little however as they are far too ‘long’ to be used for correct proportions



This guy will be the Chaos Dwarf Sorcerer. I am going to cut him down by half so he does not look too silly sitting on the back of this beast

frogbear:

…and these are the results so far after the first week.

I still have to wait for the left wing to set, and then I will start of the mane of hair to continue along the body.





I will post up further pics when I get the mane done and pop the wizard on top. Not sure if I am going to do any more work on the mop of hair on the Lammasu’s head…

frogbear:

While I am at it, here is the idea I came up with for the Death Rocket



This was a simple conversion using the Dwarf Cannon as a base

Da Crusha:

pretty cool lammasu conversion. I never got into the game myself. I was partial to epic 40k.

vulcanologist:

Very cool! Well thought out conversion… Well done!

What would you do with a warmaster dwarf gyrocopter? if you had one.

I actually have 1 or 2 spare. Is there an idea in mind?

Bolg:

Cool lamasu conversion, very well done!

Abecedar:

To get rid of one that I accidently bought very early in my ebay career before i knew what “warmaster” meant size wise.

tjub:

Looks good, looking forward too see more!

12

frogbear:

Got some time to do more work on the minis.

As I have no delusions that it is going to get any better, that should be the Lammasu and Sorcerer done.

13

Obsidian Muse:

Nicely done. Do you have any special plans for the base, such as fire-swept devastation?

14

frogbear:

I am going to probably place the mini on a flat surface, but have not thought much about it.

Any ideas or pics for inspiration?

Kronosv13:

Those little conversions are great, the lamassu is top notch, good to see chaos dwarves of all shapes and sizes :slight_smile:

16

frogbear:

Getting some more done on the Chaos Dwarf army.

I still have to model the legs and tidy this one up a bit but you get the general gist of where this is going;

Taurus





While I am waiting on the above to dry I have started on the 2nd Lammasu - this one rearing up

Lammasu #2

frogbear:

I may end up doing another Taurus in the future as I am not happy with the scale of the one that Eureka provide.

I think the body that I am using for the Lammasu would be better off as the base for this mini.

Naagruz:
