Nice miniatures, just remembered these fellows if you're looking for some nice 10mm variags or easterlings: http://www.tajima1.co.uk/index.asp?pageid=362663

Looking forward in seeing dense orc ranks!  ;)

Just bought a couple of packs  :D

Think dense rabble rather than dense ranks  :)

cheers

Those are really, really sweet!

And i think that if you want, you can find some elephant in a generic scale that could work splendidly as 10mm olyphants!

Nice painting there. :) Funny how you don't often see 'Saruman of Many Colours' in illustrations or film. Except that trippy Bakshi one.

Tajima minis do look nice. And Eureka do a pretty decent 'elephant'. Otherwise, aye, a 15mm-1/72 proper elephant could be interesting.

Those 1/72 zvezda ones seems pretty perfect, including the covering! they do not look exactely like the ones in the movie, they look like a Rhun elephant unit rather than a Harad one!
Still, cheap and of great effect for a 10mm army, i guess!



Just some work on the tusks is need, i guess :)
And, of course, you have to re.structure the wooden construction on their back, or even rebuild it!

I have those two. I think id go for 15mm models instead with those. They're very big next to 10mm.

Jim

Just a pointer if you are planning to use Warmaster as your ruleset basing sizes are crucial. The standard infantry base is 4cm x 2cm with the figures facing the long edge.

Shock cavalry and Monsters are based on 4cm x 2cm bases with the figures facing the shorter edge. All other cavalry treated as infantry. Generals , Heroes and Mages can be based on round washers, coins etc.

cheers

Oliphants were bigger than normal elephants if I remember correctly.

Liking the look of this project a lot.

Eureaka do an Mummapach in their 10mm range - its really nice, and really big



I'll see if I have photos of it in battle, as one of our group has a couple of them.

The tajima figures are nice - I've picked up a couple of packs but need to get them in to the painting queue

Pendraken - scale wise their historicals mix great with Coppelstone and GW. But Pendraken's fantasy figures can be quite big, far more 12mm than 10mm, and as such fit with Kallistra scale wise. In separate units the differences are far less noticeable.

Looking good, mate.

You seem to be on a bit of a roll here.
Only forty-eight thousand or so to go, eh.
