I wasn't really planning on doing any green stuff on these guys, but I had some time so I jumped at it. I always seem to mix up too much putty for what I need, the spare was plastered onto bases to create uneven ground.
The odd blanket roll helps with the campaign look.
I thought I would add some straps for the shields, again this wasn't really nessacary, but they do look better with them.
This was the main reason for all the sculpting, I like this GW iron breaker dwarf with his big axe. Unfortunately he is wearing thick plate armour which isn't really Middle Earth. I needed to cover most of it so the figure would fit into the chain mail posse.
A quick job but it looks better than heavy plate. The rest should be quite hidden when on the base.
The Alternative Armies dwarves are great, I have a soft spot for them. This lightly armoured dwarf sports a new axe and a bedroll.
It was a bit of extra work but I think when the figures are painted, the time would of been well spent.
