Warhammer Troll Country
|Following on from my previous work on a modified Battle for Skull Pass Troll, I’ve been receiving the first wave of bits to start modding more.
This fine fellow uses Ork Nob double handed chain axe arms. I’ll trim down nails to the more stubby troll standard, clean off some spikes for rusty salvaged metal plates look and then do some green stuff work to blend it all together.
For future versions, I’ll be carving away accssories and sculpting/gluing other accessories to create even less uniformity.
Waiting on Ogre weapons to arrive, I chose the wired wrapped rock slab clubs, seemed a more Troll thing to craft.
Overall, the idea is coming along nicely. I actually might take away the twin hammers for a single club with my original idea though.

Great conversions. I have a couple of these fellows sitting in a bag somewhere, and I will have to try out the various Orc/Ork/Nob arm combinations I have to see how they look. Certainly easier than sculpting!
Thanks Lasgunpacker 🙂 It was an accidental discovery; the Nob arms are as brawny as the original Troll arms. Only trick is shaving the nails to more blunt ends (where they show) which suits the thick digits of a troll.
I shave down the shoulder area, to be able to position arms, then bulk up with GReenstuff. With a silicone sculpting tool, I can whip this up in 15mins easily. I’m doing three and a casualty in the end.
