So I am thinking about sculpting my own troll, but I want to know how much bigger the GW troll is from the normal sized figures, say Aragorn. I don't have one and don't want to go buy one seeing as I want to make my own, could some please tell me how tall the cave troll is please?

Thank You in advance.

3". Mordor trolls are bending their heads forwards so that they are still 3"

And what kind of troll? One for Mordor/Isengard or a cave troll? (:

You c an make them as big or as small as you want: trolls will have different heights much like real people do I would suggest about double the height of a dwarf to double the height of a man, not much taller. Use a dwarf's scale ratio to determine it's girth (basically, have it stocky like a dwarf, regardless of height, rather than thin like an elf ).

I'm going to assume you already have the base you want to use: cavalry or monster. My advice is to just grab a picture or two of the GW troll that fits that base (Cave troll on the cavalry base) and just size it the way you want from there.
On a more specific note, I've sculpted a troll myself, with some technical advice from ebob. Start the beastie with a wire-frame skeleton to make sure he's in the pose you want and build onto that. I used miliput for everything but the outer layer, but I'm sure there are other solid putties out there as well.
