fieldarchy Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 I am currently working on a piece for my dad and wanted to add a "victim" to the base of the figure. You know some guy splayed out with a limb cut off type thing. Nice and bloody! I don't know where to look for these. I haven't come across any in Casketworks but are there any other companies that carry victim minis? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vil-hatarn Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 You might be able to find a good one from GW. The base of tyrion (high elf) comes to mind, it's 40 mm, with a dead dark elf splattered over it. I'm not sure if it's quite usable for what you're doing, though.

Zordana Posted June 11, 2005 Share Posted June 11, 2005 I know that Ebob have some dead guys, I bought a packet of the dead vikings recently... You can find them at GQ here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twjolson Posted June 11, 2005 Share Posted June 11, 2005 GW does have them, but not at any store. They have them in the Mordheim game. You have to order them either online or mail order through a hobby shop. As far as I know, GW is the only ones that make casualties, althong I BEG of the powers at reaper making some of their own!

SaintRigger Posted June 11, 2005 Share Posted June 11, 2005 If you want to get gruesome, grab some GW zombie bits off a friend, since they are plastic, you can really do a hack job on them - plus there are great intestiney bits to make eviscerated models. They mix nicely with various infantry models as well, so you can have a healthy looking empire warrior with his guts hanging out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaintRigger Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 It's so satisfying to make your own :) Those are pretty gross. I like it when there are parts that just shouldn't be there. I made a few mutants with some bits a while back. Mutie 1 Mutie 2 Sorry for the bad pics :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TKD Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 Foundry puts out some casualties as well. I have a few of their Hundred Years War line, and I know they put out pirate casualties as well. You have to buy by the pack, but it's only $18 US for 5-6 minis (or 3 cavalry + horses). They have casualties for all of their lines. Here are the pirates, and here are the Hundred Years War. Foundry makes nice minis - I've got dozens of their pirates, Street Violence thugs and cops, and a mixed bag of their older HYW line. It's high-quality stuff, on par with Reaper in production quality and cleanliness. I've never been disappointed with their stuff. Finding it can be a pain, though - it's easier to order directly from them in the UK or scrounge on eBay than to find them in a store around here. I make my own base casualties by sawing down old battered minis that just can't hack it as playing pieces anymore. Cut off the base, lop off and arm or gouge in a wound with an x-acto, and you're golden... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TKD Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 Oh yeah, speaking of making casualties, here is one I made custom to fix a mini. The is a Hundred Kingdoms "Giant Gor." While the expoy on his supporting arm was drying, he fell over on his left (extended arm) side. The arm glued at an angle, and thus he couldn't stand up correctly. So I cut down an old TSR wizard mini I didn't like - one of the many TSR guys I have from my first foray into painting back in 1983-4. I cut off his base, faced him down on the base, and placed the Gor mashing him into the ground. Result - cool base, and a stable Giant Gor.
