Today I want to show you guys the rest of my Snotling warband, after giving the Wheelo its own spotlight earlier! 🐸⚙️

I put together another photo series and tried to include more work-in-progress shots this time, so there are a few collages in there. 👀

All minis are fully handmade, and I made sure to give them lots of different weapons so I can actually tell them apart later 😂

Alongside the Wheelo crew (4 Snotlings + a Squig), the warband includes 16 × 🐸 runts, 5 shoota teams 🐸🐸 (2 each), 3 mobs 🐸🐸🐸🐸 (4 each), 2 scouts, 2 big snotz, a shaman, a goblin leader carried on a throne by 4 Snotlings, and even a power squig familiar! ⚡️🤓😝

Trying to fit all of that into 20 pictures was… not easy 🙃 I’ve taken more photos of two Snotlings alone on my Instagram. Turns out I’m really bad at choosing. 🫠

I did highlight a few favorites though, like the scouts (one hiding in a barrel, the other barely hanging onto his squig 🥲), or the old “wise” Snot who used to be a shaman… but kind of forgot. 🤔 Somehow he’s still the oldest in the warband.

The mobs are just pure chaos.. one even has a lookout Snotling on a banner, and yes… one Snotling is using another Snotling as a weapon 😅 The shoota teams are either struggling to carry their gear or getting creative with things like the blunderwheel (basically a blunderbuss on a wheel). There’s also a crab “tank” and a squig platform… both equally questionable in terms of safety 😏

My leader rides on a throne and even has a tiny advisor Snotling on his shoulder. He’s holding a “golden squig” as a symbol of power… painted? maybe. Convincing? apparently 🙂‍↕️ Since he’s sitting so high up, he even had a chain added to extend his weapon range 😋

This is probably my biggest warband project so far, and I definitely underestimated how long it would take 😅 especially painting. At some point I had to compromise… so yeah, they all got simple red eyes 🫣🫠

But overall I’m really happy with them and they play just as chaotic as they look! 🐸

What do you think? 🫡

Some of you might actually recognize this one! I’ve posted my Snotlings before, but that was on an account without a proper name… so yeah 😂 Instead of reposting the same thing, I figured I’d go a bit more in-depth this time.

For a Snotling warband you’ve got your runts, a Goblin leader, and some more specialized units like scouts, big snotz, shamans, shoota teams and mobs. But the Wheelo really stands out — it’s expensive, comes with unique rules, and even gets access to upgrades regular henchmen don’t have 🙂‍↕️ If you’re curious, you can find the warband rules over on Broheim or Mordheimer.

Pretty early on I knew I wanted some kind of Squig-powered contraption… but just strapping a Squig in front of a cart felt too boring 🤔

So here it is: Squig propulsion via chained Snotling bait system👷🤣 The idea is simple 🙈 there’s a very unfortunate Snotling hanging lower than the others… and the Squig really wants him 🐸👹On the platform above you’ve got the driver, a banner-waving taunter, and another Snotling managing the speed. With a little winch system, they can either drop a stone to brake or lower the “bait” to get the Squig going 🥲

I built most of the Wheelo out of wood to really match that rough Mordheim vibe, matchsticks and coffee stirrers did most of the work. The control barrel was cast from plaster, and I added spikes and a big hammer to make it feel more like an actual Snotling war machine 🔨

Because yes… the Wheelo can crash into enemies 😏 and the idea of that hammer slamming down after impact was just too good to pass up.

The Snotlings themselves are sculpted the usual way with wire and polymer clay. What do you think? 🐸
