    You must have missed the scene in the extensed version of The Hobbit, where the goblins are seen operating a table saw for those perfectly straight edges.

    simple but effective repurposing.
    reminds me of the old disney cartoon style of focal detail for important objects. The majority of the terrain is "less detailed" but under the gobbo feet its more so.
    Great stuff

    @MrWood-nc3bt 9 месяцев назад +3

    This video gives a lot of inspirations, again. I agree with you about the issues with GW-terrain. It is sculpted in a wonderful way but it is far too expensive to buy enough kits to have enough terrain for an entire gaming board. Still working on my Osgiliath-board an I will try to use my dremel in a similar was as you did.
    Keep on hobbying 💪🏼

    Love the new look for the army too but a lot of work. I used some air dry clay and a sculpting tool to make the wood planks on my Goblin town bases. Worked really well, but yours have a much nicer, finished look. Especially the added post on the king and the captain. He's my favorite

    Do they look good? Yeah, they look fantastic. That being said, could have used wooden sticks or a texture roller and saved a terrain piece but each is own. I remember cutting up ruins of middle earth for bases years ago. 5 sets of them. Really wish I hadn't now.
