From now on I will post all my WIPs in one topic under this subject batpan's WIP. Here is the first, the Orc Chariots. I think I have already posted some photos of these in a previous post but anyway I need a start. As always, any comment is warm welcome.

Nice. Well thought out.

Love the chariot! Great work with the other conversions too!

You have showed photos of your chariots before as I discussed your chariots and my chariot before, but they were less complete then, they look still good nonetheless, though you need less different WIP , if they were all in one file, like I suggested before, you wouldn't forget if you have posted something or not.

I like the Orcs in scavenged armour too

Thank you all for your comments. GothmogtheWerewolf you are right, that's why I 'll post everything here from now on. I remember your chariot, the biga. It is nice idea to put two wargs to pull it. It is more glorious! Mine have only one warg "Poveri carro". But i copy your idea about the Morannon Captain's helmet.

The Orc Scythed Chariots are ready. A few words about them and more photos you can find here:

They look cool with Orcs in them.

Very nice chariots.

But the wargs don't seem attached securely to the side... 'things.'

The chain is there but they could easily climb out of it and leave the chariot and rider in the dirt.
Just a thought. Very nice idea though.

Thank you both for your comments. Once I was trying to convert a warg rider to a drummer. I had the idea to make a double drum by using pen covers as drum bodies and aluminium foil as skin. Here is a photo of the warg rider drummer WIP and a couple of drummers with the same pen-drums. Any comment as always is welcome.

Very nice conversions.

What is a pen cover? Whatever it is it looks good, and makes my Warg Rider Drum made out of part of a Troll's arm seem less weird.

Really nice job on these!

Thank you for the comments. I post photos of the pen I use and its cover. The red line shows where you have to cut it. I also post a photo of my Morannon command with the Morannon drummer. The drum is a pen cover also.

Brilliant, simple, convincing use of household bits! Love it, will certainly steal it!

Simple and easy conversions, love them!

Really like your chariots, KUTGW!

Thank you very much for your comments. I bought six metal Iron Guards and decided to paint like Ancients. Below you can see the result and make comments:

Very nice.

And now I know what an earth a pen cover is, I was about to ask, now I know you meant a pen lid. I was thinking you meant some king of pencil case type thing.

Sorry, this is the problem if English is not your mother tongue. So pen lid it is.

they look great

Love your work, really nice conversions!
