The
Airfix Robin Hood set...I love it...there seems to be a mass of things to get out of it. A head swop here, a weapon swop there...and bingo..peasant becomes footsoldier.
 |
| The basic pose.. |
 |
| Stick swop, and now he´s the old boy of the villiage |
 |
| Stick swop, twist of the neck and an arm added, now he´s capn Hornblower |
 |
| Stick swop, head swop (Redbox Hussite artillery) and now he´s king of the slingers |
 |
| Head swop (Revel english knights)bit of greenstuff and now he´s a guncrew member |
 |
| The last reincarnation. Hand swop, head swop, sheath and shield added.. |
Hello to Matt from
In The Grand Manner blog, in the main newline design napoleonics and a few little gems like this one
Peter of Dreux.
Good versatility and skill there Paul.
ReplyDeleteSome great conversions!
ReplyDeletePaul you are giving me a complex you know?
ReplyDeleteThis was my favourite box of figs (well - after Sheriff of Nottingham!) - that Airfix did when I was small.
ReplyDeleteYou have given it a new lease of life, clever chap!
Excellent set of conversions
ReplyDeleteIts great what you can do with a box of Airfix soldiers! I may have to steal some of your ideas!
ReplyDeleteRegards,
Matt
Paul, I remember when AIRFIX Robin Hood and the Sheriff sets were used to make Lord Of The Rings armies waaaay before fantasy metal figures took off.
ReplyDeleteVery Nice work, well done.
ReplyDeleteExcellent! I would have not have known that any of the 5 other bods were conversions just by looking at them which is a sign of a job well executed!
ReplyDeleteWow, turns out great :)
ReplyDeleteGood job, Paul!
Great job, excellent conversions Paul
ReplyDeleteWonderful - I remember doing a conversion of the Sheriff archer to be a Cretan archer.
ReplyDeleteBut these conversions are great.
