Re: Old and New Mithril converted

the m80 leÅ¡ina(s), the m335 snaga(s) and the m78 razarač -- "leÅ¡ina" means "corpse," "snaga" means "strength" and "razarač" means "devastator."

Finerly we know what the names mean! Thanks Master Caneosis! cool

Re: Old and New Mithril converted

Well, as for this "brother" I like the shield very much as it fits nicely, also to the size of the figure. But the axe, isn't it a bit too large as for holding it in a single hand, though it's a Troll ?

Re: Old and New Mithril converted

A S T R E I N !
Genau bei diesem Troll verzweifle ich. und das ist der Grund, warum das Troll Diorama immer noch nicht fertig ist. Oh- I am writing in german . . . ? Sorry.
I always felt, that the pose of that Troll is a bit strange. Though the Troll is extraordinary. And I always wanted to convert that cleaver into an axe.
Your example with the round shield is overfantastic, Holger. I like also the (RIGHT) way he holds the shield! I bet, you have a spare one . . . ! big_smile
But in this case I have the association of a sword! Of a long samurai-looking sword!

PS: the shield could also look a bit more raw. Maybe it is a bit broken somewhere. "Kampfspuren" so to say.


Maybe the magic was the most powerful force in the world. But that was long ago.

Re: Old and New Mithril converted

Very interesting thoughts from both of you. I don't thing the axe is to big, but I also had the thought to put a sword in his hand. Similar to the one I made for one of the Haradrim.
I think I can carve some battle scars into the shield. You are right Christoph, it looks like it just came out of a shop...lol

Re: Old and New Mithril converted

I agree with master ent, The shield is perfect, the axe maybe be too big. But this brother dererves a sister now !
Never heard of any troll woman though...???

it's funny you mention it -- for a long time i've had plans for a number of troll conversions / expansions, including troll females and children -- and also some non-combat poses ... i'm in no hurry, but this is something i definitely would like to do one day.

P  E  R  F  E  C  T   !
That´s exactly what I thought of. I had a close view to my "original" Troll and don´t get to the point how you managed to cut his left arm . . .

Re: Old and New Mithril converted

Master Turambar.

That was MAGIC!!!! cool

Just kidding of course.
The left arm I cut of up to the point where the troll wears that ring around his upper arm. You can either have the troll, or the arm. I decided to keep the troll and lose the arm. smile With my thin sawblade I cut of the shoulder/rest of arm with ring. Then I turned this part pointing towards the shield attached it and filled all the gaps wit plastic putty. Now comes the hardest part, the arm!
Take the arm of a M148, cut of the maze, drill a hole in the fist, fit a metal pin in this hole and then fit whatever weapon you think looks good to the hand. That took the longest!lol

It's amazing what difference a different weapon and a few scratches on a shield can make! tongue
