    Troggoth Hag

    in Figure Ready for Inspection

    Posted

    Hi Will

     

    Thanks.

     

    I didn't do all the assemblies for this kit. I only glued the ears, left and right hands and right ankle. Compared to GW figs which go together so easy I found it a poor fit. Spent a whole evening warming up and "bending" the resin back into shape so it would fit when put together. And still used some green stuff as I got to a point I was worried about snapping bits. For an expensive model it was a bit of effort. 

     

    But in all of the "bad" aspects of this I really can't see this as a reason not to get forgeworld stuff. I have spent 6 weeks on this and thoroughly enjoyed almost every hour spent on this kit. It was pure joy to paint. So I will be popping to Nottingham to see what else I can buy.

    Well I better pull my finger out as I have realised there is only just over 3 weeks left. Got the seats done and got it all glued to one side. I can close the fuselage up tonight and make a start on putting the rest together.

    Hopefully I should have enough time to get her done

    Hi All

     

    Here is something I have just finished. The Troggoth Hag from Forgeworld for Warhammer.

     

    This was a commission for a friend. It is a lovely figure and tremendous fun to paint. There are so many little details that you don't notice until you are actually painting it. I would show you the Octopus in the net or the snotling hiding in the staff but I forgot to photograph them before It was collected. It took about 6 weeks to do complete.

     

    Hope you like it!

    Well I have finally restarted my B-25

     

    Got a bit of interior panted. Still got the ICP to do and the seats (which somehow managed to disappear completely)

    And I finally managed to reorder stuff from the Big H. Got a mask (not in pic?), some decals which I shall be mashing up to make 180sqn and some seats to replace the missing ones.

    So I now have no excuse to get a move on!!

     

    More soon

    I have seen a photo of Mk.Is in the OTU in the Bahamas, and these have the advantage of being in RAF colours not OD over Neutral Grey.

    I was looking to do OTU 111 but I think I will be doing 180sqn, but that could change. Will be looking at reference pics this weekend and decide as I need to reorder some decals, masks and bits.
