It has been a long time since I first thought about converting a BSB based on the wargods o hyperborea ice witch.
I used my first ice witch mini for a sorceress on foot, because I didn’t want to accidentally damage the model during the conversion process (and the mini was rarely available because of some reason in Germany at the time I bought my first one; so I didn’t know if I would get another one so easily). So I decided to paint her straight out of the blister.
But for the second one I wanted to create my intended conversion.
The model ist still WIP. I will add some small details later, but the main conversion is done:
I experimented with different possibilties to pin the body to the base. In the original version, the body is to be assembled to the cloak which is the link to the base. I decided to drill into the left foot which is higher than th right one (which is too sophisticated to drill a hole into it). The problem was to hide the pin, so I decided to have the witch positioned on a little steep slope.
The left hand with the chill blade has been exchanged with a left hand of an old hagashin.
For the banner I used a bit from the chaos marauder sprue which I made more darkelvish with thorns from the old DE warriors sprue and a blade from some old beastmaster.
