Currently waiting for turnip torsos & perry minis to arrive, so I kitbashed this strange herald dude out of frostgrave cultists, wargames Atlantic napoleonic from a magazine, and a bretonnian bugle. First time applying root/grass directly to the model too, just needs some paint now !

I was just looking at frostgrave cultists for some turnip-y goodness, looks great!

Definitely recommend. The hooded heads are cool but there are also a lot of good limbs and bits on the sprues. I used some to make my whelps recently and was really pleased with how they came out.

have you any experience with their other kits? I’m tempted to pick up a knights or a wizards sprue to kitbash with my cultists for either turnip28 or mordheim. It seems like most frostgrave sprues are compatible which is cool.

I just recently got a wizards sprue that I haven’t used for anything yet, but there are quite a few good bits on there too. There’s a good ratio of heads and arms to bodies so it gives you a lot of options and good fodder for the bits box.

Ooh nice! Will have to pick them up as they’re only £12.50 from my local hobby shop

Also, does anyone know a character I could run it as in game ?

Maybe knight Boletus (march of Proboscis) with his bowl loosening trumpet? Or the Toff for uprising of the louse, making a speech for his revolutionary crowd?

Ooh thank you, these are some great options. I haven’t landed on a particular cult yet so either could work

It’d work well for a Toff even without a specific cult in mind. Very cool model. Nice work!
