Nothing spectacular??!!
Well, it is a HOODED orc! And the regular- unique- hooded orc (to find also in this warband) is one of my All-Time Favourite-Orc!!!!
So, Master Arthadan: this conversion is ABSOLUTELY brilliant !!!!! Never ever thought about his possibility . . .
Well done! With your kind permission I will convert a similar one . . . some day.

Master Arthadan, you made something special here…
The first thing coming to mind when I saw the picture was A Thief! Great I say, you captured the essence of a orc! Very well done.

Thanks everybody! I add him to the painting queue, but it’s quite long at the moment.

I think this is the right palce to show, what is behind the “Easterling foot archer”:

The base was the [mith]M194[/mith]. You have to cut the head and the feet:

Then you have to take the boots from the [mith]M193[/mith] , in this case the M193a

The most difficult part was preparing the head of the Woodmen Elder, the[mith]M91[/mith], hard to find and very precious . . .

I don´t have to cut the original Elder. Thank you my friend . . .

Usually there should be a general project for converting miniatures.
It could look like this . . . just working on that project . . .

And now, Holger, we should have another drink at Barli´s place . . .

Quite a jigsaw – but excellently executed (not intended as a pun on beheading M91…)!

I don’t have very much that’s worth saying most of the time (so I’m told).

Ok guys ! Against Easterling were fought and died some Rohan guys… so there are few of them angry, mounted, converted, crazy warriors… (I did it better and better Master Caster )

figures are ready to be painted…. not so god like figures of my dear friend Master Archer… of course..

First one is converted [mith]M30[/mith] with horse of [mith]M29[/mith] and with new sword, shield, bow on his back and thread that connects the saddle and left spur….

…ok another one is [mith]M265[/mith] with axe in right hand, sword in his left hand, shield on left back on his horse, a little bit longer hair, and with inserted handle of the sword in its sheath.

Handled weapon with two hands like a true Easterling warrior :rolleyes:

Another one is [mith]M28[/mith] but without lance…. it will be with royal standard / flag and with shield on his back… It could be Guthlaf was Théoden’s banner-bearer before the War of the Ring

I need to shape his hands and it will be like [mith]M270[/mith] but with flag on another side…

So dear friends… I have all parts except the horse. If anyone can help I would be grateful…. I need horse in idle. Something like [mith]M26[/mith] or [mith]M269[/mith] or [mith]M270[/mith] – used….

Thanks in advance dear friends… I will pay through pay pal with some mithril coins
