Amazing, Butterfingers!

Don't seem to me that your alias makes your painting hand justice!

Where did you find that dog mini?
I've been looking everywhere for one like that! It's perfect for the woodsman's hound <3

I'm not sure where that hound is from but we are using these hounds and the chieftan as a Beorning.

Ooh - thank you! I think I actually found the hound I first pointed out on there too!

Also, that's a great Beorning!

I'll post some of my minis here once I get round to taking photos of them.

That's a great find, looks fantastic and the dogs are good too. The mini looks like it could have been sculpted by Tre Manor? Even if it isn't, stylistically it would fit very well with his minis...which on their turn go very well size-wise with GW's LoTR minis.

EDIt: while browsing the warlord site, I found a couple more hound types. In Frostgrave they have these:

And in gangs of Rome this:

Perhaps not as good for TOR, but good to know we have these options.

These guys should tour! I can just hear the two on the left singing "Dooooooooo...wop, wop...."

(I wanted to include a photo of a sixties group in a nearly identical pose, but the only ones I found were...problematic.)

Any ideas for Wild Men of Mirkwood? The best I can think is Foundry Savage Germanic Tribes, there are two blisters with spears and they're nude or with bits of fur clothing...I don't want them looking too muscular, as I imagine they'd be thin and miserable due to being spider thralls.

I've considered Lucid Eye and Copplestone Castings primitives, but they look a bit too chunky, I think?
