Nice work on those trolls - I have those figures too, but had forgotten where I got them from.

I use them as 10mm Trolls and they scale great with actual 10mm Trolls.

I believe those were originally a set of 20mm orcs ("Great Bag o' Orcs") by Dark Hold Miniatures. They've been repurposed as 15mm ogres by Splintered Light.

They look great here, Gino61 - and their height should be dead on for Middle-earth trolls in 10mm; Tolkien suggests that trolls were 12 feet tall or more, so a 20mm orc should be the proper height in 10mm:



So I'm not going mad. I thought I'd seen them as Orcs somewhere, before

Nice figures

I was looking at the SL range if savage orcs as potential trolls

I'd be interested in your solution for the dead men of Dead Men of Dunharrow

I've been working on that element myself recently

For the Dunharrow Army of the Dead, I used magister militum miniatures, Army of the Dead Armored Infantry, a basecoat of white primer and then a generous covering of blue shade. For the King of the Dead and the banner I added a wash of red...

Cool, I went with MM too for my unearthly warriors but I used their ghosts with a bit of added work
