Title: Game of Thrones, my mini project
Post by: Askellad on April 06, 2017, 12:39:39 PM: Howdy Ho guys,

Second topic for me to show you the beginning of a small troup of Lannisters.
I used Gondor LSDA and WOTR Perry (yes, not so original, I know)
Please sorry for the pictures

Post by: sukhe_bator on April 06, 2017, 01:20:36 PM: I can see the appeal, and I never do much like the realisation of the Gondorians in the films, apart from the Ithiien rangers etc. As for archers in 1/2 and 3/4 armour, and enclosing helms. Honestly.
BUT
I DO like your Westerosi take on them. I'd go one step further and change the shields - they are too ideosyncratic. Kite, heater, or even oval shields would match. The more wearable armour, the less you needed a warboard to take hits. They are easy enough to come by and would give them a more pseudo-medieval and less fantasy feel.
Having said all that I do like your archers, especially the sensible open face helmets and the unarmoured heads.
Title: Re: Game of Thrones, my mini project
Post by: Askellad on April 06, 2017, 01:36:48 PM: Thank you for your honesty
For the shields, I'll use others in the next minis but i dont have many of them so i keep them for lords and captain
(http://ekladata.com/YTVOiGkkxaX3LcERKAFVswt8gJ8.jpg)
So maybe I'll sculpt them to look oval or change it with late roman shield but i agree.

Post by: Remgain on April 06, 2017, 06:45:15 PM: Hi Askellad,

you could very easily do a mould of the shields and cast all the shields you need.

Post by: Munindk on April 07, 2017, 11:00:10 AM: I've considered using Uruk Hai warrior heads as a basis for HBO style Lannisters, but I hadnt seen the potential in Gondor warriors for armoured bodies.

Title: Re: Game of Thrones, my mini project
Post by: Munindk on April 10, 2017, 07:51:03 AM: Exactly!
I hadnt seen that picture before, but its pretty much what I have in mind for a small Lion Rampant Lannister force. Either a few lines of black paint across the chest, or some tiny greenstuff lines if my modelling skills are up to it, and they're spot on for the HBO look.

Those'll look sweet with some paint.
Title: Re: Game of Thrones, my mini project
Post by: Ogrob on April 13, 2017, 09:03:32 AM: Looks like you are off to a good start! I feel the heads of some of the starks are to high on the bodies, as if they had double necks. The heads with Frostgrave barbarian heads. I think you could shave the necks down on the heads quite a lot to better match up with the Perry bodies.

PS: Would be great if you could describe which parts you mixed here
Title: Re: Game of Thrones, my mini project
Post by: Askellad on April 29, 2017, 09:29:25 AM: Oh thank you ! What do you want to know?
I used Perry Wotr, perry agincourt
Fireforge sergents, Lotr gondor, men of alliance against sauron and orc for bodies, arms and heads; frostgrave (soldiers, cultists, barbarians) arms and heads, some gbp (dark age warriors), warlord games (gallic and dacians) and Victrix (iberic) heads.
There are also a GW eldar head, a fireforge templar head, a russian fireforge body, russian weapons, and a wargame factory saxon body

The lion shields are from russian fireforge, some others from wargame factory and iberic victrix

I think that's all,

Title: Re: Game of Thrones, my mini project
Post by: Wellington Bonaparte on August 13, 2017, 11:19:28 PM: Some great kitbashed figures, I dont know if its just me but the HBO Ironborn look like out of work miners to me?I know they have deliberately made each house look different, Starks grungy almost dark age, Lannisters pseudo Samurai, Ironborn just wrong for seafarers! I'm sure Martin has sanctioned these stylistic atributes, but its so far from the books it really grates with me at times!
Many of the minis I've seen on here (capt Blood, Frank) are far closer to my view of what Martin writes about.
But thats the beauty of this type of modelling its whatever you want it to be, and I've got so many ideas for my own Lannister/Stark/Tully forces from the superb stufc I've seen on here.
Title: Re: Game of Thrones, my mini project/ Lannisters
Post by: Askellad on October 26, 2017, 01:58:05 PM: Its been a long time! I've been busy with Inquisimunda and SOBAH but here are my lannisters almost finished.

I have to base and vernish them. I also need to paint my 3 HQ.
You can see spearmen, pikemen, swordmen, archers and sergeants. If you look closely, you may see my ed sheeran dude who will always be in first line to die quickly

Post by: Captain Blood on October 26, 2017, 02:20:13 PM: They work really well to approximate the look of the Lannisters from the HBO series... clever idea to use the Gondorian bodies in this way. Bravo :)
Agree about Ed Sheeran. What a pointless and frankly pretty useless cameo appearance that was ::)
Title: Re: Game of Thrones, my mini project
Post by: sukhe_bator on October 27, 2017, 08:41:13 AM: These look great!
I have some spare Gondorians knocking around that don't fit in with my take on LOTR, and a plethora of spare Perry heads... I'm feeling another kitbashing session coming on. I do need figures to represent the Kings Landing city watch (the goldcloaks). Time to hit the books again... >:(
