The Ogre reminds me of the captain from The Last Valley 1970

A life spent making mistakes is not only honorable but more useful than a life spent doing nothing.” –  George Bernard Shaw

Excellent save of a miniature to give it a second (maybe fifth looking at it) life! Fits nicely into the unit. I love a good ogre and whilst I’ve made some reasonable versions from the new GW kit I much prefer the landsknecht look from when I was little (I believe I have the Ogre Cpt. which you speak of - a favourite of mine; as he commanded his fearsome force of dwarves, halflings and pygmies to many a victory).

Balm

You must post a picture of that or let me know where to find it. For fun here is the video of me trying to  restore this miniature. As you say, he probably has had a long and varied life. Sounds like you’ve been into miniature agnostic rules for a long time with that kind of varied force.

Never even heard of this film. Will see what’s on YouTube one day.

Some 3D printed minotaurs and another converted bestigor chariot. All good fun. Getting into Age of Sigmar but yet to win a game…

The chariots are excellent - I especially like the warthogs and the overly confident chap surfing on the frame. I’m a big fan of minotaurs and have recently bought a lovely 3D printed 10mm unit that will be fighting for good, evil and anyone else depending on my mood (I’ve never fully agreed with the GW “beastmen are all evil” viewpoint).

Keep up the great work,

Andrew

I’m not really open to anything underneath 20 mm. Too old. I certainly feel that minotaurs have got a bad rap under Games Workshop! I haven’t managed to paint any Minotaurs, but I have spruced up these three trolls…

Thanks. I swear I’ll paint the unpainted bits. Like these Alcatani Fellowship. One day…

At least my Oldhammer dwarfs got a game of KoW last week. We won 🤪

Great stuff. Only slowly progressing the salamanders….just got to base coating 🤪🤪🤪 But at least that should enable some games in September.
