Warhammer unit request: Chaos Dwarfs & Hobgoblins

[aaglo]

@ Gomurr

You're hilarious

 

[aaglo]

Here's a hobgoblin shaman - propably not (?) to be used in the WH-mod, but since there are some additional requests concerning the hobgobbos, this (quite comfortably) sits here nicely.

 

[Drift]

I think it's perfect. Can't think of anything to suggest.

 

[Mr. Do]

Maybe you could do a slightly smaller version for the WH mod, aaglo? That way it could be used as a second goblin shaman unit for the regular greenskin tribes...

 

[Yoda Power]

What Do said^

 

[The Last Conformist]

If the shrunk version had black clothes, it would make for a pretty good Night Goblin Shaman.

 

[Xen]

awesome cant wait to see what a magical attack looks like

 

[Mr. Do]

Hopefully it'll be somewhat more exciting than the "wave your arms around" attack that the crrent goblin shaman unit has

Here's a preview of the Chaos Dwarf Blunderbuss.
Now, he looks quite a lot like all the other chaos dwarfs. But thats the way they are - I suppose

I'm not sure, but maybe he should be 'fatter'. Or shorter? I dunno.

Suggestions are welcome.

 

[Drift]

Maybe some variation for the hat shape? Like this for example: http://www.ironhands.com/mcd2.jpg

 

[Xen]

I'd say a littel shorter- the hat makes him seem a bit taller then he is

 

[Misfit_travel]

I'd suggest making the blunderbus longer. Seems to me that it was a longer weapon (proportional) to the normal height of a dwarf type character.

I like the hat the way it is, gives him a Prussian soldier type of feel to him. I think it fits with the blunderbus weapon type. (I'm not a non-CIV Warhammer player so I have no idea if its a good fit with the mythos or not).

Misfit

 

[Gomurr]

It looks like it's coming along nicely. My only suggestions would be make the dwarf shorter and wider, and give him a bigger gun. A ridiculously big gun.

 

[aaglo]

Hi,
Some changes here:
- hat type is a bit different (but only a bit, not necessarily noticeable change in the civ-size)
- armor colouring
- bigger gun
- new moustache
- a bit shorter legs
- a bit wider torso

 

[Lusikka755]

Perfect

 

[Drift]

It looks very good, but I'd still like to see some variation in hat shapes. If the one I suggested wasn't good, how about something else? It doesn't look bad at all with that hat, but variation would be nice.

 

[Yoda Power]

BTW does any of the dwarfs in WH use bows?

 

[Mr. Do]

Nope... they do in LotR though, I think.

 

[Gomurr]

They do in Middle-Earth, though I think it is rare. But, if I remember correctly, in The Hobbit, Thorin Oakenshield shot arrows from the gates of Erebor at the messangers of the armies of Thranduil and the Lake-Men. So if the rightful king of the Dwarves of Durin used a bow, I think its safe to say that other dwarves did on occasion aswell.

But in Warhammer the dwarves don't use anything so low-tech as a bow.

Bilbo's buddies also got bows from Beorn.
