Project Diary...
So ten years after I stated an intention to do a recreation of the McDeath rulebook cover art, it may finally come to pass when I acquired a treeman this month. I only lack a Quicksure for the horse, and decided the best answer is to do a conversion of a cheap knight miniature. Having studied the 'official' miniature, it needed too much work to look right.
Other things that need fixing: Harkness needs total dismemberment for reposing; Lady McDeath needs a new face; tricky job reposing McEwmans arms; scratchbuild a tail for Spot; source a dozen orcs/goblins just for the foreground, and they have to be Perry sculpts, nothing else will do; Treebeard can be readily heightened five mm, that allows a bend to his waist and make him more looming; and two fingers have to go, sorry Treebeard; then there is the battle in the background. In this respect I have lots of flex, and it's just a matter of how big.

Great looking project, hopefully will take less than another ten years to finish
