Had a good couple of days after stumbling on the idea of converting some Wargames Factory Survivors into Modern Afghans and Insurgents for use in Force on Force. Easy and cheap!!!!! link |

Those look great. However … So in conclusion I should be able to get around 30 insurgents or Taliban for only £18.00 GBP Which would cost me almost three times as much in metal. What is your labor estimate for converting the 30 models? Whatever your time is worth to you, add that to the cost. |

In reply to your question CeruLucifus, the first couple of models took me around 50 minutes to an hour. However, once you've got the idea of what you're doing and how you want the models to look you can do it a lot faster. I can easily convert 6-8 figures per hour. I've managed to finish most of the box over an afternoon, and to be honest I've quite enjoyed it. One of the beauties about conversion is that you have the option to make a completely unique set of figures. I'm looking at purchasing another set soon and creating some insurgents planting IEDs etc. |
