Kitbashing Frostgrave gnolls into sci-fi versions is something I've been doing since the kit came out. These guys are the picking up of a project I was working on about a year ago. Happily, the kitbashes I made then work as a unit of "jackal" trackers for Grimdark Future plus a couple of heroes (one very big - a converted Wizkids gnoll).
I painted these figures very quickly, chiefly through drybrushing, with a few select layering-and-highlights areas (the black hyena-like features and the red weapons and armour). Drybrushing can look quite rough, but I reckon it's appropriate for dusty scavengers on some desert planet.
They turned out very nicely indeed! The inclusion of the larger beast was a good idea and makes for a great looking warband - it seems to make things more "real" if that makes sense?
ReplyDeleteThanks! Yes, I know what you mean - as if there's some sort of dimorphism in an alien species or something like that.
