Good use of Dark Eldar bits and pieces there Mr. Norse!

One thing I never quite liked about the use of Iron Kingdoms Trolls in a different setting is the lack of noses. I scandinavian tales, Trolls have quite pronounced noses.

maybe these trolls smelled so bad they cut their own noses off?? ;-)

yeah, I actually quite like that little DB team.. I know a lot of people don't like capes on their BB minis, but for me, DElf blitzers must be the most arrogant self assured players on the pitch, so they would wear cloaks just for the sheer hell of it. :-) tried to make the armor look like old bone, went with a very limited color palette of bone, dark red and gunmetal.. also, this was my first attempt at OSL on the necromancer.. tried to make the skellies look as if magic was holding them together too..

True, I'm one of them. :wink:
But still I've stolen your idea and use the same trolls for my new goblins, they look awesome.

They play Blood Bowl, who said they would keep their noses with all those blades and spikes around? :lol:

plus, if memory serves, those plastic trolls were pretty cheap to pick up on ebay - about $12 each incl shipping I think. not too shabby
