Very inspiring conversion work. Nice to see that Schleich is a potentially excellent source of inspiration and parts for Dragons as well as Mammoths and Oliphaunts!
Warriors dreams, summer grasses, all that remains

Great conversion. Looks properly menacing now; a real swath of destruction.
Will you convert the solider so his expression goes from   :-I to this  :o and maybe in a fleeing pose.

Thanks everyone, glad you like it....have run out of primer, but as soon as I’ve got some more, I’ll get some paint on it.

Potentially an excellent source of new inspiration, but more worryingly, another dent in the credit card  lol

Today’s update is a single figure, but a large one...I managed to get the new version of Wun Weg painted up...just a reminder it is based upon the Bloodrage Ymir figure, but with a bit of greenstuff added for the clothing.

As much as I like the Elladan giant, I think this new version fits in, size wise much better with the human contingent.

Nice work!

And agreed, the proportions fit in a bit better with poor lil' Tormund there!

Cheers guys

I’ve been working upon a second ship this evening, a Grand Manner Roman Troop Transport. Changed the stern, and added a wolfshead on the bow. The latter was another Schleich toy....too small for the cog....but ideal for the GM vessel, as it has a pair of ramps.





It also sizes up quite well with the Zvezda Cog




Just enough time left to get a couple of crew kit bashed...meant to be Sell Sails/Pirates from Essos

The first one is an oathmark body, with head/arms from Perry Sudan



The next two have Perry Sudan bodies, Oathmark/Perry Medieval heads, Fireforge weapons and shields from Frostgrave Crew

Oh wow, the Perry Sudanese arms size up surprisingly well with the Oathmark body!

The GrandManner ship's turned out great too! Is the rear of the ship an addition by you?

Yeah, I was surprised at how well the oathmark body combined with the Perry bits tbh.

The rear of the ship is indeed a quick addition...the original stern was a bit too Roman, crisscross railings etc...hopefully painting it will tie everything together.

It has been a while since I looked in here and ,well....BLOODY HELL!
Are you making the entire world?
 :o :o :o

Everything GoT you can think of is being made.

Top work all round by a bloke that does like to 'throw himself into' a project!
 8) 8)

Just beginning to wonder where you are going to store The Wall when you build it...?
