bandit86 Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 (edited) I just bought a bunch of the Arctic explorer bone figures. I paint one and it was fun but as I was doing it I was thinking of converting them and the movie "The Thing" so I am cutting some of them up for head swaps and arm re positioning. I thought about some face coverings so they all don't look too alike. I also thought about using one for a Frostgrave figure, I cut off the gun removed a hand and added a pole arm, the arm on the left side I think I might add another arm with a shield. What else do you think should be changed on the figure so it wont be modern.

Inarah Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 I like how he adds snow to that. As for making it less modern for Frostgrave, cut off the pack and add a cloak? Add some pouches and things hanging from his belt. Maybe a dagger. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator Chaoswolf Posted November 30, 2017 Moderator Share Posted November 30, 2017 Great painting on both versions, and I like the conversion to de-modernize him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pillpeddler Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 Not a problem. A new set of eyes always helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
