Well that is a nice inspiration thread and its great to see that someone is building Necromunda. I thought of using the DE models to make Escher myself but the deamonettes would also be a good base. Hope you green stuffing is better than mine!
Escher Gang (fully converted)

Okay, I got access to a good camera finally.
This will be a bit pic-heavy so bear with me.
The whole gang is coming together nicely. Doing the boots has really been the hardest part, and waiting for my eBay orders to arrive has been the next hardest. I will have all of the bits I need as soon as the last two orders arrive.

Gang Leader: 'Iron Roz' - Armed with a Chainsword and Plasma Pistol
Boots, bolero jacket and nose are greenstuff, hair is the tail from an old plastic horse with the detail improved with an Xacto knife. Chainsword and pistol are from the CSM and Khorne Berzerker sprues respectively.

Gangers: Grim (left) and Squirrel (right) - Armed with shotguns and a chain and sword respectively
WIP. Chain is made from a Chaos Marauder flail. Heads are from a Daemonette, and from a Mordheim Amazon. Sword is from the Empire Handgunners sprue. Don't have the shotguns yet. Grim's shoes are platform-sole boots, adding a full 2mm to her height. They were a pain in the ass for some reason, and they're not finished, but the remaining parts should be easier. I like how Squirrel's weird half-pants came out, too. Seems very punky.

Gangers: Glitter (left), Luna (center) and Foxy (Right) - Armed with laspistols and swords
WIP. Sword is from the Empire Handgunners sprue. Laspistols are coming from eBay. Luna's boots are half-finished, I haven't even started the others' boots yet.

Heavies: Brittany (left) and Jinx (right) - Armed with Heavy Stubber and Plasma Gun respectively
Brittany is WIP. I am really happy with how the pleated skirt effect came out, and the Heavy Stubber is coming in an eBay order. I'll be using Marauder arms to hold it, but I can't attach them until I see how it is shaped. It's a vehicle weapon, so it will probably be pretty big. The hair came out okay, but it's supposed to be an ugly wig, so it should work fine.
Jinx is done. The plasma gun is pewter, I think it is an old Space Marine weapon. Her head and left arm are from an original DE Jetbiker, with a Marauder knife-hand.

Juves: Tantrum (left) and Jet (right) - Armed with autopistols and a chain and club respectively
Tantrum is done. Her chain is made from two Marauder flails, and her autopistol is a converted 3rd Edition Bolt Pistol with a Marauder's hand. Her boots are greenstuff and I'm reasonably happy with them. They were the first ones I did.
Jet is WIP. I have the autopistol, made the same way, and club, made from a Chaos Marauder pick with the blade removed, and her hands all ready to attach, but I need to do her shoes first or the weapons will get in the way.

So there you have it!
That's the state of the Strike Wenches gang as of 6/26/2011.
What do you think? I appreciate feedback.

The look great. You might want to run the pics through an editor of some kind and give them a bit of contrast/brightness tweek. I use Picasa for that, it's free and has auto-brightness and contrast.
Great job on the boots. They look like they're ready to kick some heads.

Jet and Tantrum, inexperienced Juves armed with autopistols and close combat weapons
There you have it! The next time you see these girls, they'll have a bit of paint on them! If anyone wants more/better pictures of the WIP terrain in the background, that can be arranged as well.
I love to hear what people think, C&C and suggestions are welcome as always.
