Ohhhhh Dredger!!!!!!!!

Finally got this guy finished just a small interlude between adventurers. He's is my Dredger type character from the Sherlock Holmes film. The new ogre from Wolsung would be even more perfect but typical it came out 4 weeks after I purchased this one to convert.

Very nice sculpt very few mold lines. I used the spare bowler hat from the Circ du Noir Apeman and fitted it to his head with a little bit of shaving to get it to sit right. The golf club had the tip snipped off so now its just a walking cane. Not sure what weapon it will be yet either a sword or a bludgeon perhaps. The base is from Fenris games one of there Innsmouth Cobblestone ones that I one from a Facebook Competition.




As I write this I should of got down an EotD figure just to show scale as this guy is quite large.

  1. A very fitting fellow. quite menacing and could be used for Heroic or Villainous purposes. I admire the brush work and colour choices and the top hat crowns the figure incredibly well. I can imagine he would be quite "handy" with the cane as well.

    Nicely done mate.
