Uruk Hai Warband for Battle Companies
It's been a little while since my last post. But I've done a lot of painting in the last couple of days, so I have a lot to show you. The first thing I want to share with you, is my Uruk Hai warband for a game of Lotr Battle Companies. This game will go on for a couple of months. I'll convert upgrades and wounds on my heroes as they appear in the game. I've never painted a Lord of the Rings miniature before, because I think the models are too small. I'm a bigger fan of the cartoon-like proportions you find on space marines. The plastic Uruk Hai Scouts lack a lot of details, and I don't like their faces. I decided to do some green-stuffing on the ones I liked the best. This made them look a bit more like Chaos Cultists than Lotr Uruk Hai. But I'm still happy with how they turned out. Here are my warband in all its glory:
Lastly a WIP picture of the warband pre-painting.

Hello there! Love the models, might I ask how did you do the wasted armor effect? The chipping I mean
ReplyDeleteWow, it’s great to see you back and sharing your recent work! Your Uruk Hai warband looks fantastic, and I love how you’ve gone the extra mile with the green-stuffing to give them your own unique twist. The conversion you’ve done definitely adds a bit of a Chaos Cultist vibe, which is cool and refreshing! It’s also interesting to hear how the scale of Lord of the Rings miniatures hasn’t been your favourite, but it’s awesome that you’ve pushed through and made them work for you. I can relate to tackling projects outside my usual preferences, kind of like when I had to find dissertation writing help in Wales, sometimes, working with something that’s not your first choice can lead to surprising and satisfying results! Can’t wait to see more of your progress in this game, and best of luck with the upcoming campaigns!
