Ficinus Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 (edited) I really love the game Inquisitor and the Inq28 community that has developed around it. For a long time, I've wanted to convert up a large number of mutants in the style, partially to use as mooks and partially just to do it. This is one of my first big conversion projects: I plan on converting every single model to be a unique or semi-unique mutants (there will be a squad of beastmen in the final project). In here, there are a mix of Genestealer Cult, Gor, Cawdor, Escher, Goliath, Orlock, Ghoul, Daemonette and Poxwalker parts combined with a bunch of random bits. In game terms, I plan on using Genestealer Cult rules for them since it seems to represent a rebellion so well, and the idea of a group of mutants emerging from the shadows to strike at Imperial hypocrisy looks perfect. I'll be expanding on the fluff later, but right now I imagine a planet that is largely agricultural in the southern hemisphere and heavily industrial in the north. Mutants, as on many Imperial worlds, live either segregated in ghettoes where they toil as slaves within the manufactora or scattered and lost in the vast expanses of industrial wasteland or the hidden corners of the fields of the south. In the vast mountain ranges, hidden in valleys and caves, a rebel group of mutants strikes against the local PDF in an attempt to throw off the shackles of Imperial rule. So, here's the first wave of the Mutant Liberation Front.

Grotsmasha Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 Those are some very cool conversions, and a great start towards your mutant uprising :tu: GreenScorpion 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azekai Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 The battlefields of the 41st millennium can always use more misshapen freaks! Good work; I am looking forward to seeing these muties get paint... GreenScorpion 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tallarn Commander Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 Superb conversions! I especially like the beastman with heavy stubber. He looks like he has a derisive sneer on his face. :) GreenScorpion 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akrim Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 Nice assortment of mutants, lots of good kit bashing here - ditto looking forward to the paint on them. GreenScorpion 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nemerax Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 Gorgeous models. I love mutants! The kitbashing is awesome. GreenScorpion 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ficinus Posted February 18, 2019 Author Share Posted February 18, 2019 Thanks for all the kind words, folks! My mutants aren't on up for painting right now, I have a few things that I need to get done for Adepticon before I start on this project. That said, because I enjoy assembling/converting models more than painting, I have been putting together a few more mutants. More Mutant Vanguard Some more Mutant Scum Some more Big ol' Mutants And a Mutant Sniper, born with no feet and only one hand (that hand being at the end of his tail) Exilyth, ranulf the revenant, Nemerax and 7 others 10 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nemerax Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 These are miliput copied mutations right? How did you manage to copy them so smoothly? I might be mistaken, but they look really bright to me and not this greenish colour they normally have. DaBoiKyknos 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ficinus Posted February 18, 2019 Author Share Posted February 18, 2019 The green mutations are just from green poxwalkers. The easy to build ones and some of the regular ones are on green sprues and that's the color they have (maybe the lighting is weird to make them seem off to you). I wish I could sculpt that smoothly.

Nemerax Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 Guess I was wrong Makes them even more expensive to build that way. My favourite is the guy with the sniper rifle. Very unique way of shooting it and really standing out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tallarn Commander Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 Is the mutant who is sitting down a casualty or a "handi-capable" mutant who cannot walk? Either way he is brilliant. I'll have to try a similar conversion with one of my R&H troopers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ficinus Posted February 18, 2019 Author Share Posted February 18, 2019 (edited) Neither! He's a mutant with legs for arms and hands for feet, so he can "walk," just with his arms. This angle might make things a bit clearer: Edited February 18, 2019 by Ficinus ranulf the revenant, Excessus, El_Dicko and 1 other 4 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ficinus Posted April 2, 2019 Author Share Posted April 2, 2019 Adepticon put a serious dent in my ability to work on this project as I finished up a few other things I had going on. Now that I have about a thousand points done, I'll probably start painting. Nevertheless, I've made some more mutants, I finished my squad of beastmen with shotguns, grenade launchers, and heavy stubbers as well as a few heavy weapons for other squads. In addition, I've made a few characters, stand-ins for a primus, an abominant, and a magus.

Ficinus Posted October 1, 2019 Author Share Posted October 1, 2019 Summer put another huge dent in m progress on all these mutants, as did a few other projects. But, here is the first finished squad, a squad of Beastmen with shotguns, stubbers, and grenade launchers.

Tallarn Commander Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 You've done a wonderful job with your mutants. I especially like how you have painted the fur. Congrats! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Ruminahui Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 Yeah, they look great - the blue makes for a really nice spot colour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ficinus Posted October 8, 2019 Author Share Posted October 8, 2019 Thanks you all. I'm currently working on another unit of non-beastmen mutants. Hopefully I can have them done in a somewhat timely fashion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soulhunter1995 Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 Looking seriously good I must say I need to start posting my R&H soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ficinus Posted October 16, 2019 Author Share Posted October 16, 2019 I've finished up a ten mutant squad. There's a dude missing a head because I decided to switch up some things, but he'll get one eventually. I'll also end up moving the Orlock bodied dudes into a separate unit later, but for now, it works well enough. So, more mutants!

Ficinus Posted October 25, 2019 Author Share Posted October 25, 2019 I've finished a few more mutants, another squad of ten with assorted weapons and a couple flamers. Again, the Orlock based autogun guy will probably leave this squad for another, but for now he's in here. There are also a couple of missile launchers, initially for a heavy weapons squad or whatever.
