River Trolls, Chaosified; Ideas and/or pictures!

Hi all!

My trolls are all made now, just going to spray them when i get home, and with luck i'll post pictures tonight!

Managed to get:

one with 2 heads (and loads of spikes, a nod to arsenal's troll conversions!)
one with three arms (troll arms), and nonfunctional wings
one with an extra claw, and a tail.

I've gone with a "less is more" feeling, trying to preserve the troll whilst making it clear this is a Chaos being!

Hopefully i can get the paint job to do it justice: i've always been better at modelling than painting >.<

So hopefully, pics inc, and i'll happily answer any questions about them if there are any!

Goodluck on getting them done! I'm trying my hand at this as well, but it'll be a bit before I get working on the trolls. I'm trying to wrap my head around creating armour plating so I can make my troll bsb (the stone troll with club being changed into an exalted on a 25mm).

I went and actually made three out of four chaos spawn, so I may not have the great selection I could have had!

What was I thinking? Actually using spawn! Crazy!

So here they are!

Unsprayed, thanks to the weather (tips on spraying in the rain appreciated) but nevertheless in all their gribbly glory!

Please tell me how to resize the images >.<

Those are damn damn awesome. You've really abused your DS as well.

Damn, those are cool and well done. I don't know how to resize anything, bigger is better!

Thanks ThatGood!

Actually taking those photo's highlighted some things, so since then i've gone back over them with green stuff to smooth over bits i didn't like.

It's not even my DS :), my brother kindly donated it as a podium without his knowledge.

Update: trolls are now sprayed and looking rather nice! i'm putting off painting them, mostly because i'm scared i'll make a bad job of it, partly because i'm still bashing together a chariot, and working on my chosen and BSB.

Chariot is made up of: Dark Elf chariot base, tomb kings chariot sides, chaos warrior shields round the sides, 2 chaos knight mounts pulling it, plastic ork wheels from something 40k (uncertain what tho, could be a zzap gun), and lots and lots of green stuff!

The riders will be make from warrior and knight parts - theyre not started yet tho.

I'm scared of painting everything for the same reason. However, I'm trying to pull on my big boy pants since I know I can always use one of those chemicals to knock the paint off and start anew. Get in there and make us proud!

Haha, i'm going to do the painting as a mass-project, instead of half/half with building/painting.

My chariot is coming together - doing knights/warriors conversions is a lot easier than i thought! just chop off the body, add the knights body!

chariots looking kinda beastly - just gotta make it more khornate now!

Oh dear...:o

I was just informed by my brother that the Dark Elf chariot i've massacred to make my khornate chariot.... is in fact an OOP model that is well sought after by the DE community because there is no replacement.....

I feel really bad! So heres my official apology to all DE players who hate me for this:

Sorry! I'll try and make it look as awesome as possible!

mate, you are an inspiration for me. I looked at the extended pictures on photo bucket. You should be really proud of yourself, you have done a really good job.

I have bought two boxes of River trolls and two boxes of spawn. I like a lot of your ideas, and combined with some of my own flavor - mine look okay. I am looking to run six trolls as a unit in my Army. I will put some pictures together once they are ready for undercoating. Thanks again.

I somehow missed your post in November, and since B42 started it, I thought I'd post too! On one hand that's rough that you managed to butcher a relic, on the other hand, those meanies totally deserve it for those hydras!

I took a peek at those trolls again and they are still damn cool.

@ Kraytirous: I agree, they do look like zerglings.

@ everyone else: They all look sick as hell! Nicely done!
