WHAT YOU NEED
1x Guardian Defender Squad ($55 AUD)
1x Wood Elf Glade Guard Kit ($50 AUD)
This gives you enough to construct 10, individually posed models that are already cheaper then the Finecast Rangers which are $110 AUD for 10, with only five poses and also will have an additional 6 spare components for future conversions.
Now, onto the tutorial. Once again, I apologise for the picture quality, I am looking for a camera right now, but for now I am still limited to my iPhone.
STEP ONE
Assemble the guardian as per normal, however using a Glade Guard head and leaving the back off.
Here I used the hooded head, though it is generally best to go for a 70:30 mix of hooded to non-hooded heads for variation's sake.

STEP TWO
If you turn over the model, you will notice that the entire back half of the torso is missing, and there is a peg sicking out the back

At this stage, you need too clip off the peg on the back.
