Ye Olde Inn

Just got my ebay delivery of 6 Chaos Archers.

Now the decision to use some or all of the bows on other monsters, or keep the Chaos archers for murder and mayhem.
Decisions, decisions.

And I'll need a card for them too methinks.

Oh, 6 bases were included with the miniatures, but they dont fit.

Time for some modification...or scraping at least.

Bought a big box of stuff previously, had some mercenary archers, some polearm mercenaries along with a few mixed up figurines, including a Warhammer Quest elf. Makes a perfect ranger figurine. I chopped up the mercenaries to make orc, goblin and skelly archers. Might remake the Fimir archer too.

Thanks Sjeng, I'll check for the Chaos archer image. I may still make my own though.

I'll get some pics up to prove it QorDaq, just for you.

Thanks Diggin, I was going to trim the slot in the base, but your way makes more sense.

Edit: Heres an image of the miniatures.

Tempted to use a horse and archer, or maybe a Chaos Warrior, to make a centaur.
Saw this attempt,

but I feel the archer and horse size were mismatched. I like it, but the lack of symmetry would annoy me I think.

That's because the new chaos cavalry horse minis are larger than what the old GW generic plastic horses that they used to do. I think if It were on the older un-barded plastic horse it would fit much better and make a funky centaur.

Old thread of mine, but got my Warhammer Ogre delivered today.

Its base looks like its 3 1/2 to 4 squares in size. I need to make a Giant Ogre (I know they are considered giants already) but this thing will be almost twice the size of an AtOH Ogre.
Will do a picture comparing the two soon.

EDIT: Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeres Ogeeeey!

AtOH Ogre on the right!
