Coming along nicely!
Comparison shot next to human and dwarf model may help?

there is new commissar, new gitmob goblin, old commissar. idk, may be head too big? but it's oldhammer like mini so head could be big....

yeah, some comparison should help. I don't have any. if you put something new and something human scale but old, it would be great

somehow don't see this photo initially.
so technically my guy in scale.
thanks!

 

[kabaakaba]

so he is done.
I thought about making him a ranger, but in the end he turned out to be a dwarf warrior and overall I like him.
added new axe sleeves and pouches.
Ideally, it would be better to work on it and add some details or something. but idk.
now I need 9 more to make first dwarf unit.

Excellent! You must be pleased how it's turned out. Very characterful, and definitely in scale as a dwarf (or even a tall Gnome).

Here is the first Mangler Squig. I can’t quite decide on the style and scale yet. Not many official Mangler miniatures were ever released, so there aren’t many reference models to look up to.
My first attempt already ended up in the bin because I messed up the proportions, and it turned into some kind of jumping worm.
Right now, I'm trying to make the new sculpt a bit smaller but more chunky and voluminous.
Would be glad for any suggestions and criticim

Looks really good. I've never heard of a mangler squig (just squig), so had to look it up. Certainly looks like the squigs in the pictures I can see, which seem to be big spiky squigs! Are you adding spines to it as well, or keeping more of a classic squig look?

IDK?
Considering this is an Oldhammer adaptation of a unit that only appeared in the 8th edition, I think I'll style it like the classic squigs but on a larger scale. I'm going to add tons of skin folds and wrinkles, and maybe some sort of growths or mutations.
