From SteH - "Send out your Warg Riders" (62 Points)

And in keeping with the Lord of the Rings theme that's permeating the Challenge this year I present my second standard entry, six of Games Workshops plastic Warg Riders.

Now if anyone has seen my blog you may recall that I started a Lord of the Rings on a budget project some time ago and these guys were one of my acquisitions (costing me a trade of a few Necrons that I would never ever actually paint or use). Anyway I ended up with about 13 warg riders in various states of completion and thus had to repair strip and repaint accordingly.

The captain is a conversion as the model had no arm and seeing as I'd acquired these second hand I had no appropriate spares. Therefore for the arm I cannibalised an old LoTR goblin, hacked off the head and used a metal head that I found in my bits box from a previous lotr acquisition. A bit of green stuff sculpting to fill the gaps and voila, a truly ugly orc captain to lead his own Warg warband.

Now I just need to repair, strip and paint the other seven!

From Curt:
Beautiful work Ste! I think your conversion of the warg rider captain came off wonderfully. I also really like the shading of the wargs themselves, especially their faces - excellent stuff. 

I'm going to add a couple points for the conversion, so 62 points total. I look forward to seeing the other seven in the next few weeks!
