Just starting a new terrain project, a set of Thomarillion's OOP Bilbo's Trolls I picked up from Ebay a little while ago.

Stage one, glue on one of the arms, cut base and glue trolls to it...

Simple :)

I'm noting going to add too many trees (or maybe at all) as I want to keep the base pretty clear, I'll use the trees I have based seperatly to give the "woodland" feel in a game or for photos :) Sorry to disappoint....

Stage 2

Nothing too interesting, I just sprayed the models Chaos Black to undercoat them, start paint them tomorro I hope...

I have also carved their "cook pot" out of high density polystyrene, which will be added to the piece later....

It won't really come out in a photo until it has some paint on it, you'll have to wait until it's added to the base :)

Thanks guys.......
