10mm LotR II - The Two Towers - Rohan Horse Archers 03/08

[Dr DeAth]

Tell us about these tufts then...

Nothing to tell really, I bought a tuft making machine and now I make my own tufts! 

[Vermis]

Ooh. Any info on how that works? (and what it costs? )

I'm giving the bricks a rest for a while now and going back to painting the figures . . .

another hero of Rohan

[Malamute]

One at a time, thats the way to do it.

Looking good though

[Captain Blood]

Such brilliant little figures. Well done Mark.

Hmmm. I think not. I bought a gazillion 10mm pirates which have gone absolutely nowhere... Think I'll wait to see how far you chaps stick with this before plunging in

Don't hold back, I think you should get in now so when GoT is 'so last year dahling' and 10mm LotR is massively popular and everyone is doing it you'll be able to say 'I was there at the beginning'. 

We're all 100% committed, I've sold all my 28mm stuff to fund it^* and Nick's looking for a buyer for his Boot Hill range^** so he can build a huge dwarf army (assuming that's not an oxymoron). 

You know it makes sense  

* not actually true
** not true either

Ta! Looks very interesting.

Pity I just started 28mm LotR. But I still have these somewhere around...

It's quite therapeutic, once you get used to the occasional static shocks; they're not painful or dangerous but do make you jump a bit. 

I bought the Mk1 (dish) version and use it with an aluminium sheet to get a larger surface area. I've also modified a flour sifting cup to charge the metal sieve so I can load it with the static grass and sprinkle it onto the larger terrain areas directly - that's how I did the long grass under the trees on the farm tile. 

You need to make sure your hands are glue free when you do it or you end up with flocked skin.

You can also use it for flocking your nails if you've a mind too; here's a picture of Malamute's that he insisted I did before one of his recent big nights out (I've lost the picture of his toenails)

Mama's got some bitching claws!
 

[Silent Invader]

Great work Mark. 

[Vermis]

Blimey! That's something new.

Thanks again for the info! I think that's gonna be my next new toy. In the meantime, nice work on the farm.
