[Gloire/AtWP] The Horror of Fort Wilderness

[Gluteus Maximus]

Very cool. I'll need to get me one of those beasts now. Did you convert the casualty figure on the base or does it come like that?

Somehow that priest reminds me of Chuck Norris in that first pic.

It's part of the casting - meant to be a dead Rohirrim.

Really fantastic work! You've done a phenomenal job!

Gluteus Maximus has it. Only I've covered the victim's mail hauberk with green stuff in order to make him more 'timeless'.

Somehow that priest reminds me of Chuck Norris in that first pic.

Maybe he IS inspired by Chuck Norris. Although the miniature's hairdress (if not swallowed by f*** varnish) reminds me of Richard Chamberlain...

Pete, once again I have to thank YOU for a great rule set! My humble additions are only miniatures and terrain.

Ha ha, awesome! You are so right! 

I can now believe that he is the monster's master.

[Gluteus Maximus]

Somehow I don't think "Rodriguez, Vermont Missionary" would have been quite as popular as "Walker, Texas Ranger".......

Well, I just bought one of those warg beasts off ebay. I'll move the beast of the Gévaudan story a bit further back in time and add a horror element for my musketeer setting. Thanks for the inspiration!

Cool! Looking forward to your report.

First LOTR figure I ever bought too.

[Admiral Benbow]

Very nice setting and miniatures, like it!

Got my copy of the miniature in the mean time. Amazing how close in size those LOR figures are to historical miniatures. Really makes you realise how big their warhammer figures have gotten.

Will hopefully start greenstuffing the clothes this weekend.

[Mad Doc Morris]

white knight, so true. I can still remember how I opened my first box of historical miniatures (some old Foundry stuff) and was shocked by their small size compared to GW toys I was used to. There was also great reluctance concerning actual size of the LotR miniatures when they were released for the first time - some people were very harsh because they couldn't use them along their GW stuff. How spoiled we are, sometimes.

Anyway, would really like to see your interpretation soon. Always nice to see a silly idea spreading...

Yes, happily the majority of the LOTR range is sculpted by the Perrys and apart from the very first of the Fellowship releases [tiny High Elves!  ], the later ones are pretty compatible with most 28mm ranges. Which is nice 

I look forward to the results of your conversion.

Yup, pretty close to 28 mm 'natural' scale... go very well with pulp minis and the likes

Well, it's not much, but here it is. I went for a general ECW/TYW/Musketeers look. Might redo the sash though as I did everything in one go and that didn't give me as much control of the putty, since the layer underneath wasstill soft.

Nice conversion WK. It's amazing how just a little bit of green stuff can change the wrong miniature into the right one.
