Please take the last picture again in a better light. What I can see is good, it's just that I can't really see very much...

Well done.
I especially love the ent that's about to kick a rock.

That was intentional, I was showing my recent work as a teaser/proof pics, alot of people find it hard to believe that I have such a large ent army! I will post some close-ups in good lighting very soon 8) Thank you for your comments, hopefully you will like what is to come :)

Nice ents, though that join line on the rock is bothersome...

You gotta love Ents (baroom!) Nice conversion work on Treebeard - I like to see variations. It was always a thought in the back of my mind - what if an Ent and Huorn army had marched further afield and gone after Sauron and his armies. I think even mumakil would have been freaked out at the sight of an angry forest bearing down on them. But that never happened. Nothing to stop people coming up with it as a battle scenario though :)

No it isnt finecast, my ents are mainly made from the metal treebeard model and I just add various bits from the plastic and metal ents plus lichen/static-grass to give different appearances

Oooh its been a while! Too busy setting up shops n forcing the missus to push babies out.. when the dust has settled though; finally back to some hobbying :D

Firstly I'd like to thank Coen of TLA for the inspiration behind this creation, he used a Heroes of the West Gandalf model to make his own Easterling War priest and I loved it! Funnily enough I had a headless HOTW Gandalf in my bitz box so I thought I'd have a little go at something similar myself...
Image
I decided I didn't like the banner on the war priest staff so I later removed it, here is a pic alongside my Khandish Chieftain slight conversion..
Image
My next pic (terrible quality, I know, but I never was good with a camera!) is another khandish chieftain conversion, using a charioteer model and a rohan bow arm..
Image
And finally my 9 converted watchers of karna to squad up with the original 3..
Image
Image
Image

Now I just need to find time and motivation to paint :lol:

You'll only see it here folks - Headless Gandalf :)
I like your conversions and adaptations (and the copious quantities of minis!)

Ok, I got out of bed on the right side today.. so here goes! Firstly a group shot of my Treebeard and 7 ents so far:

Ok, so that's what I've done so far, I have a feeling that the next ones will get better and better though. Here they are together:

And then individually..

And that's it for now until I decide to go on another ebay rampage and buy every treebeard model I see :-D

Excellent work and no shortage of dedication to complete a set of Ents as good as this, very inspiring.
