Worlds have passed and so too has time
My slumber now disturbed
This place of hate, thy worlds shall burn
Humans, I shall feast upon your ignorance
You will destroy yourselves
Mortals, your slithering existence
Sickens the gods, my brothers
It awoke me, from timeless sleep
My dreams destroyed, my visions lost
And so I watch you pray
And spite your worlds
Forgive me father? I am not your god
You crawl to me, and beg to me my sheep
You have fallen, curse your empty lives
Blind, like wolves you turn on yourselves

A comparison with the artwork that inspired the build
Not too bad! This one is almost an oldie in my backlog. Wip here.

Fantastic work! The use of static grass on this piece is just brilliant! I wouldn’t want to wake that guy up from his sleep…
Cheers kraut! Static grass is terrible to work with though so I won’t make a habit of it, but for this piece I felt it would work better than just greenstuff.
Haha, yeah, I guess it’s a resource best saved for special occasions like this — or for basing, of course 😉
True 😂
Wow perfectly done.
Cheers mate!
Fantastic – just how a troll should look. Banger of a song as well!
Thank you! Yeah Morbid Angel is awesome, especially that early run 🙂
That is superb mate – technically excellent of course, but there is a wonderful scandi vibe to him that really sets him apart as something special. I love it!
Cheers Alex! I found it very exciting to colour in the troll as the normal artwork is in black and white. I look forward to let him wander in the Gardens of Hecate.
Looks great, dude. I love those Scandanavian trolls that just look like they’re a hill that’s woken up and started walking around.
What size is he? I’m having trouble recognising the base model under all the custom work!
Cheers Ross!
He is built from the Pox maggoth, front from a Soul grinder and head is a mix of the FW GUO and that Nurgle snail.
Cool. He’s a big enough fella then!
Very big yeah 😎
