Ramos conversions

[Ammanas]

 Hey everyone! Just picked up M&SU and truth be told, I'm not the biggest fan of Ramos' model and was considering a head swap. 

So i was wondering if anyone else had done something similar or had advice for someone looking to do it

I used a head from the female TtB kit. Most heads with a bit longer hair will take some extra work, I think I cut down the collar a bit and broke the braid in a couple of places as it goes straight down the back.

Very interested in this topic

Looks great Bengt! I was thinking something similar - wanting to create a look of cruel sophistication rather than the mad scientist look the current Doc Brown hairstyle gives him. One friend suggested putting a top hat on him, or going full bald look.

I've been going back through early Breachside episodes for descriptions of dress and demeanor

The ttb box is a great investment! Having said I'm using the metal Ramos for my master. I like the electrical fire in his hand and I think it looks better.

I also found the normal Ramos head quite unappealing, so I converted my Ramos by giving him a ushanka beanie similar to Rasputina.

While I was at it, I figured I wanted to add a little more personality so provided extra parchment to write on and give him some extra limbs to match his spiders:

That looks excellent

not the best picture but my Ramos was converted into a wasp-bot, was my first Malifaux mini and I wanted him to look more construct like.

Do you have a better picture of what I assume is your rail golem? It looks interesting from what little can be seen in this photo.
