Third one of the second batch of Wildlings is the musician, which I named Brandan. He has double skills, for can blow the horn and play the drums. :D Creating the horn was tricky and I am very proud of the result. It resembles a horn from a Texan longhorn. The base is foam, cut with a bend in it, added to a piece of plastic tube. I needed that to create a hollow horn. The foam is covered with greenstuff and sanded very smooth afterwards. The iron pieces are cardboard. The leather wrappings are fake leather. The rope is a real rope which was screaming orange by itself... The drums are the two halves of a Kinder chocolate egg interior. The carrying system is inspired by real life, but not of iron, but rope and reeds. In real, it is an iron wire with rope glued to it. The drumsticks are carved from real wood. They were supposed to hang down, but when the drums were fixated, there was no room left. The hands of this wrestling figure are massive! You can see how Saruman evolved these humans into superorcs, for the muscle, skin colour and large hands are allready there. His vest is from an old piece of cloth, with added buttons and loops by myself. I wanted him to have it hang loose, for he looks badass this way. 8) As a handweapon, the has a shieldbreaker club, made from wood. It was quite a to-and-fro to line up all the brownish colours of the items in a way that they staid distinguishable. ![]() |
