This is a Dain conversion I tried. I used epoxy putty to create the cape, the armor and the helmet. I made the hammerhead out of plastic using an old file as my only tool. I'm not a good at taking pictures, I can assure you the face looks better than that.

this is its profile and a simple model as a comparison.

that's a Raddy close-up. you may see some other fella behind.

any comments, suggestions?

I still need to add something on dain and refine the paintjob, I could use some suggestions, because I think I'm missing something

Could you maybe take a picture of the back of his cloak?

I'm also interested in the cloak! I had a go at sculpting one last night for one of my Dwarves, and it's quite evident that I remembered green stuff being easier to manipulate than it actually is!

I did not use any GW's material, neither Green Stuff nor colors. I used Andrea's Model epoxy putty and damn, it took me lots of time.
I'll add pictures of the back as soon as i can.
Meanwhile, I started to convert pieces of cave troll missing lots of stuff into a Isengard Troll with banner.

This is what I had at the beginning:

This is the first wave of sculpting

Then I added a Breastplate, and a chainmail. This is it now
