My Tolkien Orc/Goblin conversion method

[ldobson68]

Hi guys,

For a more gangly taller standard Goblin I like to use the Warhammer new Kruleboyz bodies with a head swap of the OOP Warhammer fantasy Goblin regiment heads, these always seemed too big for their small bodies to me, but are lovely sculpts, this guy got a milliput helmet and some mail to cover the back join, undercoated with the excellent Halfords khaki, shield arm left off for ease of painting

[Hobgoblin]

Nice conversion! He's got a sort of Alan Lee orc look about him, and your helmet looks great! And the big heads are a nice Tolkien-esque touch - something JRRT mentions a few times in various places.

Thanks very much !

Great conversion! 

I thought I was looking at a render there for a moment though...

Hahaha cheers

Echoing Daeothar again! I was sure that was a render. Great conversion!
