This question is only for members who have figures that they use as henchmen. When kitbashing a henchman, what do you kitbash them in?

The way I kitbash my henchmen are some kind of coloured jumpsuit to wear, followed on by some boots and give them a simple weapon to carry. If I’m kitbashing a henchman for the jungle or forest I dress them in green trousers and give them boots to wear. Sometimes I will give them green t shirts to wear but mainly I like them to be barechested.

I have not yet put together an army of henchmen in 1/6 scale.

When I assembled henchmen... henchpersons... underlings... in other scales, I tried to dress them as much alike as possible, and in uniforms appropriate to their tasks.

The Pinky-Street vampire pirates (vampirates) wore sailor uniforms and had fangs, but had different but similar hairstyles to differentiate among them:

The Ameliæ Escadrille are not exactly underlings or minions, but they all wear aviator costumes because that's what they do... or pretend to do:

I have a 1/6 scale project in the works that will be similar in concept. I am currently assembling "habits" to outfit a convent of nuns in 1/6 scale. I suppose the nuns will be considered... hench-nuns, or underlings, or minions, or acolytes, or... something that means the same as henchmen.

The army of Gangrene Henchmen in matching uniforms is actually the best example of 1/6 scale henchmen I have seen. It would be difficult to top those guys! I hope we will see them again at some point, now that Professor G has returned from the grave!

Ah yes, those nuns!
As this incredibly ominous footage smuggled at great risk out of one of their recent conclaves shows, those nuns are already working themselves up into a frenzy with a very vigorous war dance! The Nuremburg Rallies had nothing on this!
Who would ever suspect nuns?
Be afraid....be VERY afraid!
