Title: Lotr Far Harad
Post by: Mo! on 31 January 2015, 09:15:40 PM

So once again my butterfly like mind has landed on a new thing to never finish...

Far Harad... wow i love all the old metal models "sigh"

bought and traded a few things to get the feel but im pretty sure it is love at first sight...

first things I cleaned and based are the watchers of karna... wow badass!!!

I never really cared for the Watchers in concept, but the sculpts have so much character.  And I like the plants on the bases.

Worst thing is i ordered the wrong source book (a shadow in the east) when I should have got Harad  :'( so I dont even know the stats...

I did order some Perry camels for scenery and maybe ill make some mounted ones as well...

The Camels are UBERCOOL...& from their aloof expressions, they know it. AND the Prickly PearCactus your using is the State Cactus here in Texas; its grows rampantly. Have FUN with the Beasties!

Nice minis; this is looking really promising.

Where are the cacti from, if I may ask.

Title: Re: Lotr Far Harad
Post by: Mo! on 09 April 2015, 10:36:34 PM

The cacti come in a box from pegasus i bought them in a trainshop. they usually sell for 6 to 8 pounds in the uk. here they are up to 12 euro for 2 sprues so you can base a lot of 28mm dudes with them.

This is a great start the cacti work great on the bases. Its not surprising the Perry camels work well with these considering the Perrys sculpted most of the old metal LOTR figures.
