So for last years tournament I wanted to use some monsters, so I chose the two best ones in the game maybe?
First is my fell beast.
As to save money I decided to make my winged nastiness as customisable as possible. This was the first time I used magnets on a miniature too. I made the heads interchangeable as well as the rider and made the base detachable.
In hindsight I should have doubled the magnets it is still a bit weak. I plan to add a Metal Khamul to ride one as well to lead my Easterlings. Which will make the head heavier.
I decided to go for a different colour scheme because you know, black is boring. I gave the beast a green/blue tinge. Added a final wash of Nuln oil to give it a bit of a shine; like scales in real life.
Riders in detail
Heads in detail. So there is a normal head and armored head. But where is the Horned head as we all know the horned Fell Beast is the best.
Next Up is my Troll Cheiftain.
I made this guy out of Metal Mordor Troll and the plastic troll kit.
Yes that is a MEGA sword. If you could give a troll a two-handed weapon this would be one.
Lucky for you guys I did take some work in progress pics, I wish I took more especially around the head and sword.
The sword was made from a nail filler, very inventive I know. I was trying to work out what to use for quite some time I my best idea before that was a Letter opener but I could not find any cheap ones that were the right size.
But a $2 nail file, cut the handle part off and green stuff done!
The troll I gave blue skin and yelow scales because its different
The back Armour I just made from green stuff not as smooth as I would like but try crack through that plate! I just searched some Eye of Sauron images and painted those on the armor.
Now to get onto the Dead warrior. This guy was fun to paint, I just used the Blood of the blood god paint GW has; works really great. And rolled little sausage green stuff to resemble his entrails. I hope it looks like he has been rended apart.
I love this base too, Probably the best one I have made (excluding the dead warrior) Used Polystyrene to get it raised up. Although I had to change the base so the troll would look like he is standing straight. The metal troll is leaning to one side and quite hunched over.
