Hey everyone, after some fails sessions of taking good pics of my latest project, my mate and I finally did it. This is something I worked on for between slightly over 2 years, and now I call it finished (one big guy still missing, but I need that finishing move )
I will start posting with some heroes, because those pics are already available - the rest will follow one at a time. I hope you have some fun, thatâs literally all this army project is about
First, let this guy announce, that the circus is in town. Fitting as Flaggit, or maybe, with some imagination, the mounted king. In either case, heâs dressed as a ârote Funkenâ (freely: Red Spark), which is a carnival thing here in cologone. The coat of arms on the scroll is the coa of Cologne, Germany.
Haha, thanks I fantasized about some orc cheerleaders (that sounds horribly wrong), like the Bloodbowl ones, but in the end I didnât want to have orcs into the thing. Grumpy dudes, no circus blood But Iâm always up to have some guest starring if - and maybe the story to the âifâ will follow one day - I will play the Circus Army again
Thanks a lot, it was in fact a pain to paint it. If you go really close, you see that Iâm far from beeing a pro painter, but fun in converting and freehand stuff is definetely one of my favourite hobby parts! But, the two guys here arenât converted in any way, they are sold like that (except the mushroom the director ist standing on) from Wyrd Games, and are part of the Malifaux Gremlin Range. Lovely models nonetheless, and I was happy to find them!
Two more guys to have fun with - one of the big advantages of the circus thing is, that there is a good range of which model can be which unit. So those guys are, depending on the list, mounted Flaggits, Biggits, Kings, or what else seems suitable. Either case, they are happy to entertain
There is so much more to come, and Iâm more than happy to share them! (before you wonder, yes, Iâm most definitely trying to show off here, because the amount of work I put into this whole thing was to the edge of frustrating ). Have fun guys!
Btw, still no conversions - the bell dude is also from Malifaux, the stilts guy is from an alternative blood bowl team manufacturer called Gaspez Arts. Check them out, theyâre great!
Hey ho,
today I have some more heroes to share:
This guy here would be best as a Biggit, or, if in need, a second king on foot. Grabbed him luckily at a closing online store, and I think he fits in without any conversion. Itâs originally a Leprechaun, but I have no idea of which system or manufacturerâŚ
The other two guys are meant to be Stinggits, but Iâve never field them so far. Maybe one day, but the style fits I think theyâre also from Gaspez Arts.
The first two guys are (surprise) again from Gaspez Arts, the oldschool GW one and the flying carpet dude (I added the carpet, made from plasticcard) were lucky bargains - Not the perfect circus addition, but nonetheless oddly fitting. Hope you like it
Have you started on the units yet? This looks like a really cool vanguard force to play with if you canât figure out how to do circus goblin units (can you transport a 2 foot tall goblin high dive base?)
Thanks, you might have said something. Vanguard might be way to play then again, especially with all the heros you donât play in a KoW game if Vanguard will be more played in my area, Iâll give it a try. Although I planned to to a Basilea warbandâŚ
The unit pics have been taken, yes, but my mate doesnât have that much time, and even less reliable Wi-Fi to send them ⌠And Iâm not sure if we have met in the past, but how do you know about the high dive guy?
Never met you good sir. Iâm just a fan of goblin circuses. Everyone knows itâs not a real circus without the high dive and explosive potion juggling!

). Have fun guys!
theyâre also from Gaspez Arts.
