Removable helmet? So cool! Leave it off when he's in the dugout, put it on when he's on the pitch! Great execution of a neat idea.

Painting is fabulous - love the grey skin. The only thing that I'm not sure about is his hair colour - a lank dark grey-green would have been my choice.

Fantastic work. That is by far the best 2ed. troll I've ever seen.

Really rather brilliant, and rather helpful - I'm trying to bulk up some 1990s Warhammer trolls after the weapon snips and I'd been struggling. Some great ideas and wonderful execution.

Also, I think it's worth mentioning your paint job - very nice. His colours seem really well balanced.

Woa, I love him... he's so brilliant... he should have BoneHead and not Really Stupid!

Only just seen this (from the link in axiom's thread), and I'm guessing I'm in a minority here.

While I agree the conversion work is excellent, I think it looks worse than the original - I liked the thin look on the old trolls.

Thanks guys, just came back and have internet access again..

I'm glad you like him (well, most of you), and I'm very pleased myself that the GS-work came out as planned, I'm a novice in that area.

I'll put this team in their case for now, in anticipation of the league starting this fall. If I ever find those Empire heads im looking for I might start some blog type thing about those as well.

Cheers, and thanks for everything!

I personally really love the original skinny troll, but this beefed-up version looks good too! The removable helmet is genius, even if it happened by accident!
