My previous success with the Prince August "Classic Fantasy" orcs encouraged me to try out another of their goblinoid moulds, this time the Troll and Goblins mould. I was particularly keen to see if the troll could work as an Ogre, something lacking from my 1/72 collection.
Casting these chaps was a little trickier than the orcs. Some venting for the ends of the spear and the tip of the goblin's finger was required, as well as for some of the heads:
Details on the goblin casts were nice and crisp. The Troll however seemed to have very few facial features!
Green stuff came to the rescue here and I was able to turn these trolls into ugly, big nosed brutes.
Scale wise I think they work very well as ogres with the 1.72 models (Alliance left, Caesar Right).
The pointing goblin also offers lots of potential for conversion. The pointing arm can be easily notched in the armpit and bent down. The model in the centre has a cleaver from a Wargames factory orc sprue.
Scale-wise, again these work well with the Alliance (left) and Caesar (right) 1/72 plastics:
The finished mob, looking for trouble:
Awesome work
