Hi,

I was just wondering if anyone has an images they could share to show size difference between Warmachine Horde and LotR models?

These are the three in particular I'm thinking of:

http://privateerpress.com/files/product ... an_WEB.jpg - for Grey Havens elves, with a different paint scheme.

http://privateerpress.com/files/product ... sh_WEB.jpg - possibly for a named Khand hero.

http://privateerpress.com/files/product ... ic_WEB.jpg - for a Graug (Shadow of Mordor) with a bit of converting.

It says they're 30mm so I guess they won't seem too different, hopefully!

Hi.

I do WM as well as LotR so I paint and convert both, and love my Menites (Bow, heathens, to the Canon of the True Law)

I can't get a photo u/l right this moment but from personal experience:

They are noticeably taller, and a little 'chunkier' than GW LotR ranges, and the infantry at least would stand apart. You could indeed probably get away with it, but as I said it would be noticeable.

However the choices you listed could work better than most. That Khand hero would be a big fellow, but that's maybe why he's the hero.. :)

Brill thanks! I guess taller wouldn't be too much of an issue for elf stand-in's but chunkier would be bad..! I think I'll have to get some and see!

The trolls aren't anywhere near as big as they look. The 3 trolls tower over them, so they wouldn't make for good graug.

I like your choices, especially those Elves. Considering elves are tall elegant folks those would fit well I think.

Nice look too.

Thanks, thought they're just the right amount of different from the rivendell elves and the galadhrim.

Noted about the trolls, thanks!

Ral Partha actually makes some really nice metal elves that I am using for the armies of Lindon. I can try to send/upload a pic if you want, they are unique but scaled right.
