As the title says... Im trying to stay clear of GW's models if I can. When I get to a point where I really cant find a proxy then yeah sure i'll use GW but that is not this day!

First up!

Black Numenoreans
Bit of a kit back of perry miniatures new english army plastics and some fireforge games teutonic knights helms..
I think it rather suits and resembles a piece of artwork I saw once of a Black Numenorean.
This is the first time I have ever use greenstuff also so be kind

Will be updating this thread but il be posting the photos to my blog as im struggling to compress the photo down without ruining the quality so a follow would be greatly appreciated!

Not bad! I'm interested to see them painted up, I've been looking for a good Black Numenorean conversion, this may just be what I'll go with, too!

The Perry mini's work really well: so true to scale and realistic. I like the paintjob on the Black Numenorians: dark enough, but not literally black. The helmet growths , however, are War Hammery - and completely unrealistic, a liability in a fight and they draw the eye away from the model as a whole. The rest of the helmet works great for BN....too late to snip and file?

highly recommend using mithril miniatures as well, they did the miniatures for MERP.
