Class!

Thank you Nic !

and now with the base for his hair :

The hook is made from the magic staff of the Reaper Bones Ogress and the weapon (Patu Parāoa) is made from a piece of plastic cut into his base.
Nothing is lost with me !

You have an impressive eye for repurposing miniatures and their parts

I do that since i have started the hobby......since 1979

when there was no so much choice in figurines and periods....
Only Airfix, Atlantic, Minifigs, Hinchliffe......and books/magazines....

Some problems with figure conversion are:
The limbs of the new model to have a natural posture
The cuts and joints of various add-ons and the original figure to be smoothed and invisible
To be convincing for the conversion it is purposed.

I think that you have tackled all these problems with great success!

If you had not shown the prototype, one would be sure that this was an original!

Great project. The conversions are excellent.

The coral golem is looking great so far. Looking forward to seeing how he comes along!

Thank you guys,

For the Golem, the problem is adding the coral, sea plants and some details to give him the look of the Reaper's one.
i have to sculpt some of these "accessories".
One of his victim is already on the paint desk

May be a new one, placed under his left foot (the one on the beach sand. The other foot 'll be in the water).
the left hand holding the 1st victim and the right relying on a rock...
