One day... one day.<br /><br />I really fancy doing Prax. A couple of years ago I partially made some High-llama greens that would be fun to finish off, and to get cast.<br /><br />Cheers, SimonBigRedBathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05622983082204451158noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4880538120094882531.post-40498630291683258972009-12-11T11:36:16.777+00:002009-12-11T11:36:16.777+00:00Probably the best RQ Troll proxy I've found is...Probably the best RQ Troll proxy I've found is the <br /><a href="http://www.reapermini.com/OnlineStore/orc/latest/14347" rel="nofollow">Reven Bull orcs</a> from Reaper. They look quite close to the illustrations in Haunted Ruins. They'd still need some conversion of weapons but it's a start. Some of them have seperate heads too, so if you had the skill you could make new resin heads that better matched the Trollpak pictures.trevhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02075948487364771772noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4880538120094882531.post-76366018526648484922009-12-10T13:46:13.902+00:002009-12-10T13:46:13.902+00:00not sure, but maybe westwind are the one Im thinki...not sure, but maybe westwind are the one Im thinking of-from old glory-ice trollsThorlongushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02556309913246314673noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4880538120094882531.post-58741421607765257842009-12-10T13:05:33.793+00:002009-12-10T13:05:33.793+00:00There's a particular look to the heads of Glor...There's a particular look to the heads of Gloranthan trolls which sadly is not reflected in any of the bigger 28mm ranges.<br /><br />Re other trolls, I saw a really nice army of Westwind Ice trolls, once. <br /><br />For my next unit, I'd love to do some Gloranthan rhino riders. I have the rhinos and the riders, just not the time to paint them. :-(BigRedBathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05622983082204451158noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4880538120094882531.post-68021082753161029702009-12-10T12:58:51.793+00:002009-12-10T12:58:51.793+00:00Hi Simon- don't know too much about runequest ...Hi Simon- don't know too much about runequest trolls, but there are some lesser known troll minis out there.

The moonboat is a simple conversion from a galley.<br /><br />One of the nice things about Glorantha is the imaginative ideas in the source material; lots of inspiration for modelling!
