Glenning's fantasy adventures (Bunch of Undead added - Oct. 30th)

[glenning]

Alright, first thread here - this will be the fantasy thread, where I will post a myriad of different projects - mostly classic Middlehammer, converted Perry stuff - as well as some other stuff related to the Fantasy genre, LOTR included.

Anyway,  I'll kickstart this thread with some pics of my Bretonnian grave robber/brigands warband for Mordheim, classic Perry sculpts with some subtle conversions here and there!

Thanks for looking, stay tuned for more!

[Knight-Captain Tyr]

Those sculpts still hold their own against modern medieval miniatures. Lovely paintwork, look forward to seeing more.

[Peithetairos]

Those are indeed lovely sculpts. I especially like the subdued, yet contrast rich paint job. What strikes me, is that the mail is much better than modern sets, say the Victrix Normans.

[glenning]

Thanks guys! Indeed, they still have a lot of character and the attention to detail by the sculptors are amazing.

Here's another figure for Mordheim, an Ostland champion converted from a myriad of different Middle- and Latehammer kits:

He is great. The iconic fish is a neat touch.

[Grumpy Gnome]

Great work! I particularly like your Bretonnians.

[glenning]

Thanks guys! Here's a Warrior of the Dead from the LOTR range which I recently finished - the first test mini for an upcoming Draugr-themed Undead warband for SAGA, using the plastic Lord of the Rings Warriors of the Dead from GW with a shield from Oathmark. A quick paintjob I have to admit - but super fun nonetheless!

[Little Odo]

Very nice. That shield is better than the GW originals.

[SotF]

That's a really interesting idea, been thinking about draugr for a while and that might work for me as well

[Knight-Captain Tyr]

Brilliant. I think you might have inspired me to strip my bright blue GW Army of the Dead and redo them in a more muted scheme.

"Rise from your grave! Go forth - and kill!"

Latest addition to my SAGA Undead project - a "good" old Necromancer (based on GW's Saruman) with a bunch of minions - skellies from Oathmark with GW heads and LOTR Army of the Dead spear tips:

[Kikuchiyo]

They work for me

[Pattus Magnus]

Those look great! Very nice choice of a figure for the necromancer.

[Knight-Captain Tyr]

Really brilliant stuff here. I also did the GW Skulls + Oathmark bodies trick, I think it's a winning combination.

Also, outstanding work transforming Saruman!

[glenning]

Thanks a lot guys!

@Pattus Magnus Indeed! As soon as I saw it I thought it would make a great Necromancer!

@Knight-Captain Tyr A winning combo, right? Great minds think alike!
