We recently found a thread on The Warhammer Forum, where user Xander opted for a more personal touch when creating his miniature army. It seems that Xander is a BioShock fan, so when his local hobby shop held an event asking for assembled and painted miniatures from the tabletop game Malifaux, he went the extra mile and crafted his forces in a way that would make Andrew Ryan proud.
As you can see, Xander put in quite a bit of care while making these, mixing and matching parts while improvising for the rest. The end result isn’t just any army, it’s a formidable force straight out of the depths of Rapture. Be sure to head over to The Warhammer Forum to get a deeper look at all of Xander’s work, while finding out all the details on how these modded miniatures were created.

I like the step by step featured here. My stepdad does custom models (mixing his own paint and creating his own additions. What can I say? I come from a family of nerds.) Maybe I’ll show him this and ask if he can help me make some of my own.

The Rosie and BD are easily professional quality. They would sell like hotcakes.

Whoa! I got featured, very cool!
I wonder how I missed this. And as Felonious points out, I did indeed post them on the forums!
The big daddies and the big sister were my favourite to make. I especially like the Rosie. 🙂
Cheers guys!

I don’t have that steady of a hand or patience to paint something that small.

Here in Dover NH we have two Bioshock style art projects, one is a complete usable character skin of a big daddy in The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim, another is under secret awesome operations VIA “Sligo Wrechords”
