Converting Rohan Royal Guard & Deorwine! ~ Muster of Rohan Ep 3

[@davidmartyn5044]

Superb vid. I have used the "blue stuff", and it is brilliant for casting all sorts of bits. As always, look forward to more soon!!

[@Zorpazorp]

Thanks dude 😁

[@lipinglin1994]

This reminds me of looking at the white dwarf back in the days when they actually convert one of the Rohan guys with a banner. This is simply awesome!

[@Zorpazorp]

Thanks!!

[@triruns]

Really nice work and great presentation of techniques not often shown in detail. (I liked the notched shield - looked like battle damage.)

[@alessi296]

I'm just 4 years late but congratulation this was an hell of a work, wow

[@Zorpazorp]

Hahaha WOW don't see comment son this one very often! Thank you :)

[@rickrussell8382]

Nice work. The blue stuff is pretty cool. Thanks for high lighting how to use it.

[@Zorpazorp]

Glad you like it!

[@twheatabix]

All of these, great conversions. Love the mounted banner bearer!

[@Zorpazorp]

Thanks so much buddy 😁

Very nice tutorial. I have very few actual Royal Guard models in my current ranks I think about 6 total. Currently I am using the more heavily armoured regular riders as stand ins. But am toying with the idea of removing the bed rolls/quivers and the bows from the backs, filling back up with green stuff to give a more pure cloaked back. As for the other details while mixed in they won't be immediately noticeable but will need to be worked on, I have plenty of spare sword and spear arms from the on foot guard to be able to graft weapons on. I might have a mess around with some broken riders before using my good stock.

just found you channel, and as always great work. looking forward to watching many more :-)

[@Zorpazorp]

Thanks Bradley :D we've got heaps of stuff in the works too so stay tuned :)

Should make an update video with the actual Deorwine model, the foot version comes with a separate shield which would make an amazing blue stuff mould, no full mini getting in the way

[@Zorpazorp]

My goodness this is an oldie hahaha

[@TheBuefurd]

Does the casting resin not get hot enough to melt the blue molds? I have some similar resin but per the instructions it says it just meets the melting point of the blue stuff. But I'm still tempted to try.

[@Zorpazorp]

My resin doesn't get too hot but just give it a go, worst case scenario the blue stuff deforms a little bit and you just reset it :)

[@simondenelzen]

Take a slower curing resin it gets less hot

[@Dooce94]

Hey, where do you get enough spare spears on their own like that?

[@Zorpazorp]

They come in the Royal Guard on foot box :)

[@Dooce94]

Thanks man! You’ve been such a great help/resource as I’m just getting started in the hobby. Do they come with spare spears or am I gonna have a couple of weaponless royal guards on foot? :’)

[@Traikersify]

More episodes plz

[@marcwittkowski5146]

I know I'm beyond late with my comment, but I wanted to mention that I have a single point of criticism: the shield on not-Hama's arm should be affixed to the hand, not the forearm. That kind of shield was not strapped to the arm.

Just a heads-up about pronouncing the names of your heroes: The "-wine" in "Folcwine" and "Déorwine" isn't pronounced like the alcoholic beverage, but as two distinct syllables - "Folc-win-eh", "Deor-win-eh". "Wine" (with two syllables) means "friend" in Old English, from which Rohirric is derived. "Déorwine" = "brave friend", "Folcwine" = "Friend of the People (folk)", "Holdwine" = "faithful friend" Just so you know :)
