Really funny and original idea. How might the wizard look like?

The flying monkeys are awesome. I think I want to convert some of my own at some point, but for now they are in. An excellent spot there, have a slave.

Been promising them for some time so here goes - Some pictures of my WIP



Hobgoblin Khan on Giant Wolf: This is Dorothy and Toto - Picture isn’t great as you cant see the gingham top she is wearing - damn her shiny boobs! Below is a slightly better/less shiny picture.



I’m sculpting Toto to look like a monster terrier.



Daemonsmith Sorcerer Lore of Fire: This is my wicked witch of the west - still a wip



Infernal Guard with Blunderbusses: This is my Infernal guard champion, he is styled in the same way as the Winkie Guard from the film - Grey, white and red with green skin. I have 20 infernal guard almost done and they have blunderbusses.

I haven’t finished anything yet apart from Dorothy but have loads of ideas and recently got 20 metal flying monkey models through the post so will post these soon.

C&C welcomed

thewizardofoz:

Sorry for double post I don't know how to edit ...

U could maybe use necron or skaven pieces for the emeralds (or green stuff of course)

And I think it would be really cool if u did hobgobs as flying monkeys instead .. And use the chaos dwarfs themselves a munchkins

Just an opinion though .. Not exatly sure how different they are

The flying monkey models I got through the post are awesome and whereas I was going to use them as hob cavalry or unit fillers, they are now becoming my hobgoblins. Thanx for all the help guys.

Have just bought these

and thinking of using these as my kdaii fireborn but painting them in the style of TIK TOK of Oz

I am thinking I am going to paint them copper and then paint the joints firey to warm the whole thing up. The eye will be a glowing emarled colour as I have put some green on every model so far.

C&C welcome

Bloodbeard:

This is gonna be one really weird chaos dwarf army. … When you’ve done a couple of units and heroes - we should figure out just which armylist it would work best with. Or how many armylists it could be fielded as.

Glimpse the Void:

This is quite interesting. I look forward to a group shot. Also, your Dorthy has my attention and your fire mage looks boss.

Yeah - The first cost effective army. Buy once and field as 6 different armies. lol

Hopefully, it will look clear enough to my opponents.

Shame on you! She's an innocent young girl from Kansas! Nah, she aint that innocent! lol, Armed with the relic sword, dragonebane gem and ruby ring - she's kitted out for dealing with chaff and Kdaiis.

Ill get some group shots when I have more finished.

That’s my Giant - He is enormous

That’s the link to the tournament results.

Ill post some pics soon.

Yodrin:

Gz on best giant, huge yes and very cool!!

Admiral:

You’ve got a strong theme going with this army. I’m not much of a fan of Oz, but you sure makes it look cool nevertheless. :smiley:

Sticklander:

Any pictures of the army all together?

thewizardofoz:

Pics coming - my ICT skills are poor but shouldn’t be long.

I do have a question though that I need some help with.

My Hellcannon is going to be sculpted on the Tik Tok man of Oz, below.

http://fc07.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2010/009/8/2/Tik_Tok___Return_to_Oz_by_dan_arbro.jpg

Does anyone know of a good robot model that would work as Tik Tok?

My ideas so far are:

Using greenstuff to convert the stone golem

http://puppetswar.eu/img/p/278-1044-thickbox.jpg

or

using the Hyperion model from Warmachine

http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-GcEr3seZNdQ/UPqquFirH3I/AAAAAAAABwo/s8nPexi16r0/s320/IMG_0760.JPG

Any ideas?
