Normal human models?

[senkei242]

anyone got a good site or some such where i could find a normal citizen model.

u know just a person not a soldier or anything

I've been looking for something like this for a while, trying to find undetailed male and female figures is hard, I can just buy some heads easily, but the bodies are really hard to come by.

The problem you're having finding a "Normal" person is because in a fantasy setting their clothes will be dated tieing them to a setting. If you're ok with greenstuffing lots of places sell blanks of varying difficulty for sculpting your own. you can get almost a full muscular Male/Female figure and add the style of dress to fit your scene.

Other than that I think you'll be hard pressed to find anything that doesn't look like it comes from a train set.

I know way back in the day GW did make a few civilian casualty models but to my knowledge now they are few and far between.

i too would like to see some, if you going to use them in terrain then why not try zombie models? they're already gored up :3

well ive just been playing with the idea of building some genestealer cult members

and i need a few "normal people" to model into a car seat

[Swarm God]

lol just remember, normal citizens in 40k do not look like people do now.

I found a few. Just Google a search for 28mm miniatures. They are out there.
I found some really funny stuff when I was toying around with an IG army.
I found a sqaud of soldiers on Unicycles with lances.
They could be Rough Riders, ya' know?

lol carnifex on high wire, or warriors on on giant circus balls

best thing is to get hold of the old necromunda stuff, all the gangs are unique, and just loose the weapons.

If you are going to make a genestealer cult, that's fine. but if you want to actually play it, then you're going to want to start planning out "counts as";

choose a codex that best represents what you feel the rules should be.
For example, you might use the current IG codex, and then convert the models appropriately.
you might mix Tyranid warrior parts with some IG stuff and field them as Ogryns, while you call them mutants.
you might mix fantasy empire models with IG stuff and field them as a penal platoon, while you call them cultists.
you might greenstuff up a psyker, add some tyranid iconography and field it as a psyker, while you call it a Genestealer Magus...

for my own, I still play it as a tyranid list, and that's because I wanted actual genestealers in the list.
the list includes:
A broodlord, represented by a daemonette with large talon-like wings... she looks suspiciously like a queen of blades...
Devourer gaunts, represented by IG with brain slugs attached to the back of their heads, and trimmed down lasguns.
Tgaunts, represented by fantasy zombies mixed with various tyranid bits and armed with fleshborers
Raveners, represented by genestealer models mixed with zombie bits and a bit of greenstuff. (I'm not as happy with these conversions, I've only done two and may re-do them.)
Gargoyles, represented by fantasy zombies mixed with various tyranid bits and armed with fleshborers, with SM Jump packs attached to them.
Biovores, represented by an IG mortar, crewed by 2 IG with brain-slugs on them. The mortars are also infested...
Zoanthropes, represented by 3 different models:
1. a fantasy priest, with a dwarf head, and has been greenstuffed to make his head bigger. he has a dark eldar slave girl at his feet.
2. a fantasy lamian vampire attached to a Red Terror tail, and a greenstuffed dress.
3. an IG sergeant with a tyranid warrior head on a ravener tail.

I field a standard tyranid army that I can play at a tournament and fully enjoy.

any pics?

[Devil's Advocate]

I need to re-photograph my army but here's what I have.

Brood brothers (tgaunts)



Mindslaves (Devgaunts)



Brood brother assault (Gargoyles)


Queen of Blades (Broodlord)


Mindslave Mortar teams (Biovores) and Magi (Zoanthropes)


Brood brother Prophets (Raveners) I actually want to re-do these models

I'm thinking about combining them with Empire flagellents, they seem to be an excellent choice for super crazy. either way, they will most likely require extensive greenstuffing.

Those look really good.

I'm plannign to do a genestealer cult too. But a tau genestealer cult. It will be a counts as tau army, with the models modified to be slightly genestealerey...

it's worth a glance through odd toy stores. you don't often come across the right scale, but if you do you can get lots for a HELL of a lot cheaper than most miniatures. if you ever happen to find a bag of toy people in the right scale at the dollar store, then you've got it made.

don't even EXPECT to find exactly what you need, but it's worth the 15 minutes browsing a toy section in your local department store.

[stealershock]

absolutely fantastic conversions, can't waut to see what you come up with for the new stuff
