Excellent conversions. And using Mieville’s Perdido Street Station as an inspiration is brilliant!

Yeah, those are great, and the world of Perdido Street Station is great inspiration - utterly terrifying in a very 40K way (so much so that I was unable to finish it).

 

Thanks all!!!

 

And here's a link to a video turntable of the girls all painted up (pics incoming):

Most excellent conversion work!

Thanks space wolf!!!

 

Completed the painting of the Bas-Lag Merc trio - a 'let's build something quickly to practice painting on' project that rapidly spiralled out of control...

 

 

 

Here's a link to the a youtube turntable of the ladies: Bas-Lag Mercs

(Can anyone tell me if there's a way to embed the video into the post please?)

 

Painting:

Primed with Stynlrez grey randomly mixed as applied with Dark Sea Blue or Olive Green (Vallejo)

Drybrushed on acrylic Scale 75 metallics

Completed with Oils as an exercise in applied frustration, though I'm getting the hang of oils now I think...

Some screenshots from the video:

W][P - Narcomancer

Made for Grim40k's  GrimDark Cards Challenge 2025.
Inspired by card no. 5 and the music/art of Primal Era Worship's album 'Narcomancer'.

Card no.5 from Grim40k's Grimdark Card challenge 2025

 

Made a complicated base...

Used a portion of a Delaque body and a Stormcast head, stuck the whole thing in a big pin, then went a bit nuts with the Greenstuff and a tentacle/cable roller:

Rolled a mix 70/30 mix of Milliput and Greenstuff out into the basic shape of the lower robes, let it dry for an hour, stuck it into place and teased the edges out with tweezers to get the frayed edges:

Then: sculpted in the upper section of robes; added the arms - right hand from the Corpse Cart pile of dead bodies, left hand from Morvenn Vahl; sculpted in the upper sections of the sleeves and let it all dry.
Next: Used Tamiya Quick Type putty to complete the lower sections of the sleeves, and rolled out the head-cables.
Finally: added the brass Needle and the many-bits backpack, notably the plunger section from an Admech kit (minus the needle), and joined the Needle to the plunger with another cable, added the last head-cable, and - done:

Absolutely excellent! :thumbsup:

 

Really nice greenstuff work, and imaginative usage of the Rhino cupola and Necromunda bases to make the base :smile:

What an impressive conversion, nice to read the breakdown of your process with the progress pics! Love the base in particular and how all the cables intertwine with it! 

 

Thanks all!

Bonus post - turntable video of The Narcomancer.

Cheers!
