I'm actually getting ready to convert that same Neomics troll. I love the body on it, but I've never been a fan of the arms. They're just too spindly. Anyway, I was generally thinking I would fit some of the river troll arms on him from the plastic sprue and then extend the shoulder pads out a bit. I think it is going to make him look a lot more bruising.

Love the troll. I have the same fig, but mine doesn't look anywhere near as good as yours. Have to do more work on mine now that I know he can look that good.

Trolls are supposed to be ugly and mine just isn't anywhere near ugly enough :D

Any updates, Slackjaw? I'm really loving your Orcs and your color scheme - it's refreshing to see a clean style on models we automatically assume are going to look pretty unkempt and dirty!

I'm recently returning to BB after a long hiatus, and wasn't happy with the sculpting my Orcland Raiders - they seem extremely outdated when compared to the modern stuff GW is producing. I was trying to figure out a way to use some of the extra Boyz I have lying around, and I think you have provided the inspiration - thanks!
