These came in a box called Goblin Battle Chariots and the Goblin hero in the back was called Odbod Dogbreath. I love the stories that used to be on the back of the boxes back in the day.
The
models are still a bit 'work in progress'. Almost there. The whips are
made from guitar string. One needs a handle made from green stuff. I had
lost the scythes from one chariot, but managed to find a pair on ebay.
I've glued them on but they need painting. I wanted a rusty look to
armour and metals and added that in places. Kept the colours muted and
earthy.
I
started by painting the wolves. Instead of just painting them grey and
dry brushing them, I looked online for wolf photos and tried to paint
the patterns and colours that real wolves are.
I
did the base last. Just PVA and sand. I tried to leave rutts from where
the wheels passed at the back of the chariot. Its more noticeable on
the second chariots base.
I
don't like how the bases have turned out right now. I think the models
looked better before i did the bases! I plan to add grass tufts and/or
static grass.
-Any tips or advice is welcome!
