Warhammer Goblin Raiders

I’ve made no small mention of my enjoyment of Brian Froud’s Goblin aesthetic (dear god, here we go again..) and my constant attempts to merge it with Warhammer.

Amidst my sudden desire to build a diverse Goblin army to oppose my young knight through many adventures to come; using regimented Goblins is about as entertaining as a one trick snotling.

So I need bickering, ramshackle raiders who can double, nay triple, as Dungeon denizens, raiding ravagers and adventure party ambushers.

Secondly, being on the borders of Bretonnia and the Empire – their gear, being salvage, should reflect that.

First are two brawlers/skulkers, with a crazed savage goblin. I used Gutter Runner legs atop upper torso Bretonnian men at arms bodies (Finally, a use for my most hated plastics). The rest was whatver seemed good at hand.

Being raiders, they had to have satchels, gear and loot bags.

The next set are further unaligned gits. A scrappa, stikka and a bruiser.

Just realised now the leftmost gobbo needs some loot! Might just have him earn some in future. The Stikka has trapping gear – clearly the one tasked into grabbing woodland creatures for chow time, or unwary travellers.

Couple more scrappas and a second Stikka, though this version is clearly more alert and has scavanged a longbow from an unfortunate Bretonnian bowman.

As you can see, the basher on the end collects heads. Those he doesn’t pulverise first.

Now a surprise addition, an upcoming shaman. Or the Weird Git among his mob. Both a bit unhinged, the savage and the shaman get along quite well, bicker less than most.

I’ll be waiting on more parts to complete the group, mostly for RNG tables and as a opportunistic force should the goblins ever mass up for a big scrap.

The future models will be even more adventurous. 🙂
