Having not included my dwarf characters in my 1000 Points in One Week Challenge (http://www.librarium-online.com/forums/projects/128663-1000-points-1-week.html) gave me some time to give them the care and attention I usualy lavish on all of my models

Both of these are converted from the regiment sets (And Cannon sets in the case of the Engineer)

They are nearly done. The Thane is about 75% done, and the engineer is about 85% done



With the Thane, I decided to be a bit cheesy and give him a black beard with burning ends (He is a pirate after all :act-up:)
The thumb on his right hand, I sculpted so it looks like he's actually gripping the handgun.
I'm still working on painting his bottom lip, but it's prooving to be a right pain.
Just a bit of tidying up and final highlights to be done now.

The Master Engineer was a really simple conversion, given the number of extra bits on the dwarf sprues
The tools on the back of his belt are simply lego tools cut down to size, and I think they work brilliantly, fitting in as over-sized tools, like the wrench.
Again, just tidying up and final highlights, but there is less tidying to do on him :dance:

As always, C&C very welcome :act-up:

COnversions look great, how'd I miss out on ths project :P The metal looks great. Keep it up.

yea i like them to mabee add some gold as these are characters...
but great well done!!!

It’s looking really nice so far.
I can’t wait to see it finished.

The concept's working out really well! I take it you will be using some Long Drong Slayers too?

Other piratey bits I can think of are the monkey from the Empire handgunners box set, and the Ogre Maneater with the eyepatch and anchor. And of course any barrel could contain gunpowder :)

Looking forward to seeing more soon.
