Cheers Tacgnol - I had to track down Maggot and Gudruk on ebay - and as to what I did with the 20 odd plastic crossbows back then...  ??? >:(

Anyways - dig them out and give them a lick of paint!  :D

I found 11 of those x-bows last night while searching for a long lost gobbo standard bearer. Still connected to each other on the sprue, well with one missing. I'm afraid they are in line to equip some of the x-bow orc boys so aren't swapsies.

Didn't find the gobbo though, three identical marsh trolls did turn up though, no idea I had three...

Yep, three old citadel marsh trolls. They could look cool as a unit, (I'm sure this must have been the plan) but three identical trolls with very limited conversion possibilities?  I've got goblin bows coming out of my ears LeadAsbestos, if you have some lead gobbo spears I may be convinced that a unit of two rocks just as well.

I also found about 10 ish of the white dark elf plastic x-bows they ain't right but they could be a good contemporaneous swap for the x-bows you do need Thantsants. Oh and my bits box is more of a bits garage and cellar so I often don't find what I'm looking for but always find something. I found a small box full of Judge Dred stuff the other day when I though I just had a couple of bits of it...

Phew - been away from the painting a while - work has been a bit of a shock to the system after paternity leave and Easter hols!  >:(

And now for something completely different...



... errm I mean -



A Jes Goodwin ogre shaman for the warband!  >:D







Got hold of a few more Orc's Drift minis so will endeavour to paint one or two over the next week!  :D

What's his favourite colour? ;)

He looks mean, I like him! Most of the old Goodwin ogres are ace... would love to get my hands on some.

Its called Demonstealer apparently - looks like I'll be looking up ficton books as well as Wargames and Roleplaying on t'bay! ::)



It certainly is, I have both that and trolltooth wars. I tried reading trolltooth wars when I was in year 4 but I was never a good reader and gave up.
I might give it a bash again now, at uni!  lol

Thanks for the tip Rob but... http://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?topic=1646.1035

Bought, paid for and read a while ago! Not a patch on the Trolltooth Wars which I definitely reccomend!

Whoops!

Gawd, I hate Monty Python, drags on so much! Get to the point! I know that's what's meant to be funny, but it's too much!

The ogre is excellent! Jolly well done!

I look forward to seeing what you do to the minis I am sending you!

Blasphemy! I'd poke you with a point-ed stick if I had one handy. ::)
