Sir_shvantselot’s various Fantasy efforts

[sir_shvantselot]

Well, I used the old Orc plastic chariot, and then robbed some replacement boars from a set of the Savage Orc riders. The SO boars need a bit of fur sculpting on (which you can press-mould from elsewhere on the model to keep the same texture as the rest of the figure), but the lack of saddles on them is helpful. The do look a bit more savage and mutated than actual boars too, so they work well for this role.

...All that said, I still I prefer yours! 

Thanks. I need to work out press moulding. Do you have pics of your efforts. Would be interested.

I'm sorry, but nearly all my WHFB stuff is currently packed away in the loft... I've only got some 4th/5th era DE, HE, Skaven, and Chaos Warriors to hand at the moment, and even they are languishing in neglect at the moment!

Shock horror. What good are the minis in the loft?! Means almost no chance of play…

WHFB battle is generally low chance of play, full stop... Hence all the armies moved up there until I have space/enthusiasm for them again (which I will, I'm sure).

I saw you picked up some lovely old metal space marines. So Xenos Rampant? Anyway. Fished this fellow out of the garage…need to think of a use.

The Landsknecht ogre! One of my favorites of the golden age!

If it's the one I'm thinking of, I've just seen that figure on ebay for £56!

We’ll have to lobby one of the STL designers to do a modern take. I don’t understand eBay prices. I don’t think anyone pays them. I think it’s to elicit offers almost there, like maybe someone would pay £25 for it?

Anyway. Not done much Fantasy stuff recently. Have a whole day free and so started these. But have some virus and think might spend the day watching Orange is the New Black instead…

They're nice figures.

They're nice figures.

Most kind. I even painted them.

Thanks! Fun with the Crooked Dice giant…

Bought this ogre from Rivers with metal bitz cut off, so replaced with plastic.  Fit with my Trish Morrison ogres fine.

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).
