Drunken comparisons

Asked and answered. Here they are, side by side, to show the effects of the conversion as well as different approaches to the paint job. One lot was painted with my left, the other with my right...

Fanzone: More drunken dwarves!

That's right, sports fan-fans... more drunken dwarves.

In an attempt to up my game, I created four more fans out of the same three drunken dwarf minis. A keen observer may have already spotted that those three are clearly already done from the same dummy. They are identical waist down. Taking this into account, I wanted them to look different, and I wanted to make them more modern. First step was to lose the fantasy helmets. I made two go bare-headed, one got a silly hat, and the last one got a cap. All fairly easy sculpting. Second step was to give them shorts instead of... tunics. Or whatever you call those. Not terribly difficult, and all done by knife.

Two og them were identical. I gave one a hat abd trimmed his moustache, and I repositioned the hand for the other guy.

They all got different beard colours, of course, but they are all wearing Packers-colours.

Fanzone: failed slayer

This dwarf is clearly a slayer, and perhaps quite a drunk first and foremost. He is - and always was - unarmed and taking a swig from his bottle, and he is obviously not the fittest slayer out there, slaying more ales than greenskins these days. Did he pawn his axe? Perhaps he used to play blood bowl untill injuries sidelined him...

Some drink to remember, some drink to forget, right?

Points to anyone who may know where this guy came from. I do, but I was not happy with him, so he got a new beard and a modest mohawk, and I think it worked quite well.

Fanzone: Three drunks

Drunken dwarves are classic. These three fellas are quite expressive and have that 90s style of dwarfiness, even if they are not actually GW-miniatures. They are untouched by my knives and saws, and came exactly like this. They do wear chainmail and helmets, and that may seem silly, but they have no weapons, pouches, quivers, backpacks or other adeventurer gear, so that was a huge bonus.

These actually inspired a little writing, and I throughly enjoyed giving them red noses and crossed eyes.

Cheers!
