Hi all

I would really, really like to have a mounted Gandalf but I can't buy anything for ages because I have no cash
so I was thinking about converting one from the MoM Gandalf and a spare horse
so here's a bunch of questions:
do you think this is a very good subject to convert?
do you think its possible?
do you think its worth it?

I'm a bit worried about sculpting the ripples in gandalf's robe are there any good sculpters who could give me some advice?

Thanks in advance

ehm, well, I'd take the horse, cut off everything below Gandalf's torso, pick the legs of some other rider, then first put a thin layer of greenstuff over it, and sculpt folds etc(try to continue the folds from the upper body)

I used a MoM Gandalf and the old Gandalf the White on horse to make a mounted Gandalf the Grey. It was a simple conversion, although looks a little odd as the horse is moving fast and Gandalf looks quite static! The old GtW on shadowfax is often very cheap on ebay. I might even have a spare kicking around if you want to work out a trade.
