This in one of those impulse builds. I've a mind to do some of those iconic Lord of the Rings creatures without much plans to use them in games. The Mumak is one of those beasties, although painting one up turned out to be quite a big task. Well, I'm still happy I did this, as I got this one on the cheap. I had to strip it, it had parts missing etc. Turned out well in the end. The Mumak surpassed the Adeptus Titanicus Warlord for the position of the largest GW figure I've painted, but as for my yearly painting tally, there's a grumpy dwarf insisting it still only counts as one...
- Grey as a mouse
- Big as a house
- Nose like a snake
- I make the earth shake
- As I tramp through the grass
- Trees crack as I pass
- With horns in my mouth
- I walk in the South
- Flapping big ears
- Beyond count of years
- I stump round and round
- Never lie on the ground
- Not even to die
- Oliphaunt am I
- Biggest of all
- Huge, old, and tall
- If ever you'd met me
- You wouldn't forget me
- If you never do
- You won't think I'm true
- But old Oliphaunt am I
- And I never lie
I painted the Haradrim to match my Frostgrave summoner warband. Their colours match, but the scale difference is noticeable. |
