Title: World of warcraft - a tauren reminiscence
Post by: Snafu on 17 December 2016, 11:32:09 AM

In the game "World of Warcraft" players can choose to play a race of bull-like creatures called Tauren.

They have a typical style of buildings too.

In this little project I tried to make a taure-style hut together with some tauren-like miniatures.

These are some screenshots from the game which I used as a template.

This is the result.

For the miniatures I looked for "minotaur" and found some sculpts made by Reaper.

You can buy them made of plastic or resin. I took the cheaper plastic guys.

Here they are out of the box.

I don't play WoW and I'm unfamiliar with the Taurus but you've done a great job there!

 Nice work on the hut.My wife plays WoW and scenery in the game is amazing.Would make for a great miniatures set-up too.

 There were some Tauren in the Clix type game that they did a few Years ago.Might be worth checking Ebay to see if you can get a few.

That's alot of BULL!


Really wonderfully done. There is a lot of inspiration that can be taken from video games.

You did a great job on the hut!
