Title: Outcast Greenskin Project Log
Post by: Chico on August 12, 2014, 10:34:21 PM
So back from BOYL with a large goodie bag of toys, including one of the infamous John Pickford Giant Trolls. Plan is to use him as a Giant in my Outcast Chaos Infested Greenskin force.

Added to the base is a Orcling (This one was free, thanks Marcus. But I have 4 packs worth including the LE one) and a Crooked Claw Goblin (Thanks DB!).

Also as a clue to future projects take alook at what else you can spot in the picture hehe

I love John's Trolls. They work very well with the 90s Kev Adams goblin range stylewise. And they are massive!

I've just bought some Kev Adams Heartbreaker orcs and I need a troll to go with them for a warhammer quest almost boss (there's another fight after this one, but this will be the hardest), style wise the troll looks perfect but I'm just wondering if the stats I would have to give him would be too much for level two heroes? Although writing this I've just had the idea I could make him drunk...

Thanks lads, he was a pig to stick together and much putty will be needed to fill some gaps but he's an amazing figure at at £20 a real bargain.

Ooo, that's nice. Any chance of a size comparison shot?

With a normal Troll I'll try to get one in the coming weeks, but atm you can see from the Gobbo on the base just how large the fat boy is :)

Yeah I'm also using Pickfords Fat Goblin King with a pik of ranges but mostly Kev Adams toys :)

Post by: sundayhero on August 14, 2014, 02:02:35 PM
really cool ! You did a good job, big minis are difficult to paint, because of the large flat aeras.

It reminds me the old Citadel trolls from the early 90's. I believe I've got a couple of them somewhere, with a few savage orcs.

The Big Guy & Friends turned out SPLENDIDLY...the Folk to the left look potentially UBERCOOL also.
Title: Re: Foundry Giant Troll WIP
Post by: Chico on August 14, 2014, 03:41:10 PM
I have the say the Troll was a real joy to paint, it almost painted himself.

The Goblins to left is another John Pickford figure set, King Furtak Fartage III and Bek Belly Bearer along with Chefs Soop & Gore Dhon.

How do you base your minis? Is it painted static grass? Love the goblins so far.

WONDERFUL additions to your project! Since I started following the progress of your Outcasts I notice I stop to checkout the Black Tree & Harlequin minis at least once a day...the will power is cracking. That aside, VERY WELL DONE!

Post by: Chico on August 18, 2014, 02:26:29 PM
Thanks lads, DeafNala Ral Partha Europe have the rights to the old Heartbreaker Minis and are semi-well priced if you want some Dark Goblins. Plus If your willpower does crack I have 10-15 ogrininal Heartbreaker single models blisters I could trade you hehe

Both here & on your Blog, you have some WONDERFUL pieces. The Bolt Thrower is a gem...love the Dead Guy strapped on the front. I still have a few of the old war machines  kicking around in the Vault...still in their boxes, although there are a couple of pieces missing here & there. With all your inspiration they might actually see some paint. Bet that as it may...GREAT WORK!
