Miniature Games Construction Yard

In this blog I'll talk about various miniature games. Custom miniatures and minor conversions are my favorite pastime. I'll cover scenery making and painting too. The WIP you'll see here is all about Necromunda, Epic 40,000, Warhammer Fantasy 5th Edition, Warmaster, Warhammer 40K 3rd Edition and Lord ot Rings.

In line with my budget-friendly solutions for Games Workshop games I am working on two Trolls for my Goblin Team.

From gallery of tocoking


There were two Trolls in my bitsbox. They originate from Dark World: Dragon's Gate. I don't play that game but do love the miniatures. That's why I welcome them in my new Goblin Team for Blood Bowl (Third Edition).

The catching claws are leftovers from the WHFB Skaven Rat Ogre sprue. The shoulder pads are a mystery were they come from, but very useful for this little project

This base plate is extruded polystyrene thermal insulation. It is sturdy and very easy to manipulate. I am carving rocky features from the board with a sharp knife. The larger chunks were removed with a saw.

It is pure coincidence, but with some imagination the shape reminds me of these:

To close the hole in the plastic Dark World scenery I am using cardboard.

From gallery of tocoking


There will be no viper pit in the temple but there will be an offering table... with blood! devil
Adding loose stones and embossing lines with a pen will help the drybrushing process.

From gallery of tocoking


I've made a selection of decorations from my Lizardmen bitbox. The temple will fit perfectly in the Lustrian jungle. Speaking of jungle, I'll be adding quite some trees and plastic aquarium plants soon too.

Rumble in the jungle... I am converting my Dark World scenery into a Warhammer Lizardmen temple.

From gallery of tocoking


First I'll add more stones cut from polystyrene, and then I'll start glueing Lizardmen glyphs and spare banners and shield to the walls. There is lot of leftovers in my Warhammer bits box.

From gallery of tocoking


At first I was planning to make an offering pit or a viper pit below the temple. But since it was too much work and would add no play value, I'll stick to designing the exterior.

I'm in the flow...
My collection of painted miniatures is growing.

Board Game: The Lord of the Rings: Strategy Battle Game


I've cut the logo's from GW's boxes. They're looking nice in my display case.
