Did I mention that I didn't like my trolls? Maybe a couple of times, ten times maximum 😏 Beyond the models themselves, and my not-so-satisfying painting job, I think I've also missed the part where these creatures are supposed to be tamed and used as brute force on the battlefield by my Chaos Dwarfs.
So, back on the workbench, I decided to make each base a duo, with a beast-handler and his ill-treated troll. The bits from the AOS Kruel Boyz were very helpful here.
My first troll-handler is not from the Marauder Miniatures range, but from the original Citadel Chaos Dwarfs, designed by the Perry brothers in the 1980s. I simply swapped the two-handed axe for a vicious man- (or whatever you want)-catcher.
Once I've reworked the initial trio, I'll convert the following trolls.
Nice idea. Heavy armour is a very sensible choice for a troll-wrangler though I think a whip and a flaming torch might be a better choice for controlling the brutes.
ReplyDeleteThanks. The whip is coming with the second troll-handler. The torch is not a bad idea, I'll keep it in mind for a future conversion.
