#Maxi Posted August 26, 2016 Report Share Posted August 26, 2016 Hi everyone, I'm starting to think about how to proxy Archie, especially focusing on november's UK Nationals and other local tournaments. Something to suggest me? I'm the worst painter/modelist/sculptor ever, so please nothing complex to do! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
decker_cky Posted August 26, 2016 Report Share Posted August 26, 2016 Simalcrum 29. Done. http://elementgames.co.uk/images/products/4883/3688-simulacrum-29-avatar-mcmourning-box-med.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Show me a TO that has an issue with that, and I'll show you an unreasonable TO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheSpinebuster Posted August 26, 2016 Report Share Posted August 26, 2016 Given it's a legal proxy for a -different- model, I can see where allowing you to use it as a proxy for Archie may cause confusion. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the problem I would have as well. It's a damn shame, as Sim 29 is really, really ideal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
huntroll Posted August 26, 2016 Report Share Posted August 26, 2016 Glue some visible tentacles to Sim29 and make a dropped ice cream cone on his base from green stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asrian Posted August 27, 2016 Report Share Posted August 27, 2016 Barring Sim 29, you could always use the large Mindless Zombie by putting him on a 50mm base (I use him as an additional Flesh Construct for my McMourning crew). You could add in the above suggested green stuffed tentacles and ice cream as well just to have it stand out a bit more. Here's a pic of mine (Middle one) on a 40mm base next to the Flesh Constructs. Alternatively, if you don't want to buy an entire box of Mindless Zombies you could also do a conversion of KillJoy. He's an impressive enough model that, with just a bit of green stuff, would work nicely as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't be at all surprised to see Sim29 as an official proxy for Archie in the next version of Gaining Grounds. In the meantime, make sure you check with your opponents and your TO.

Terwox Posted September 1, 2016 Report Share Posted September 1, 2016 I'm using this model, but painted w/ Vallejo's dead flesh color. (Reaper Hill Giant) Bit too tall, but whatever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kogan Style Posted September 5, 2016 Report Share Posted September 5, 2016 Converted this model and added magnets to represent various upgrades. Just needs paint now! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SurreyLee Posted September 23, 2016 Report Share Posted September 23, 2016 Here is my Archie Proxie so far. Some green stuff work and plans to mould an ice cream onto the hand at the end of the tentacle and general gap filling. Might also add a skull into him body somewhere.... https://www.dropbox.com/s/53qip4ki6mrylt9/Archie.jpg?dl=0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
