It's not my work, but it's too funny and cool not to share. Behold: I'm gonna make my own using a cigar-chewing Alp from Malifaux. I'll post a pic when it gets painted.

Amazing. Is this a Cygnar minuteman and a gobber tinker? This is really cool.

IT'S ALIVE! Ok, it isn't exactly done, and the pic's quality is far from the best, but I couldn't wait anymore.

Well done! I think I am going to have to try this. Did you use greenstuff to attach the gremlin/gobber? Did you have to modify the Minuteman's arms?

Yep, it's Milliput to be precise on the inside of the elbow joints. Just made them a bit longer to engulf the place where the gobber's hands goes, and you need a small amount to fill any gaps between the gobber's feet and the jacks upper knee guard. I had to cut off the gobber's hands and feet, and had to twist his legs apart a bit, but now it suits quite well. (Btw it's an Alp from Malifaux) The hard part was the torso of the jack, cause you have to cut off most of the breast plate, the neck guard, and some material behind them to make place for the back of the gobber. You definetely need a saw, or cast the body from resin, like I did. Edit: Now that I think about it, there's one more task I definitely have to do. Write the following text on the front half of the base: "Hell, it's about time!"

I have a project I've been working on for about a year and a half now that's in the same vein as the original picture post. I'm finally nearing completion of getting it painted so I'll be posting it all over once it's done.
