Dwarven thrower

Put a hand holding a ball in place of the left hand and sword, and voila!

That's a pretty crappy mini. The sword looks like a big paddle and the head is to small. I don't even want to mention that it's quite hairfree for a Dwarf. Maybe he's a Halfling disciplinarian.

I actually bought this one with the same idea im mind (ie to convert to a thrower) for a project I was planning, a kilted dwarf team (not enough kilted dwarves around, and the Celtos dwarves aren't really good to convert for BB)

Or that's just the sculptor's idea of a dwarf (I think most of the dwarves in this line look that clean cut)- I agree about the sword looking like a paddle though.

I like the fig. Kev from hasslefree is a very talented sculptor. And if you don't like the beardless fig it dosn't take much to give him a greenstuff beard.

at the risk of asking a stupid question :roll: what scale is he...

in the picture he looks like a strong human more than a Dwarf... is he shorter than a standard human model or...

a pic showing him next to another model would be great if anyone could do that??

I never saw a dwarf without a beard :o
So why do you think he could be dwarven thrower?

This can be an easily converted mini into a dwarf thrower. I would usre the GS idea for the beard and take it farther by making longer hair!

I am currently converting this Reaper mini,

into a goblin thrower.
