Very nice! This motivates me in painting a Troll on my own. 🙂
That’s the idea !
Have fun…

Purple is a great colour for shades. I did that for my Former Fiends from confrontation and it looks good. That purple really added depth to the arms and neck..
This might not be the place to ask this but after you mentioned the rocks on it’s back, I was wondering why they have them? Is this growths or do they add them on for some reason? When I see them I think of them as earth elementals.
You’ll have to ask the Privateer Press people for the specific reason…
I think trolls, in fantasy, are viewed as cthonian creatures from earth and stone. The Pratchettian troll is in fact stone… the Tolkien trolls turn to stone at dawn… The D&D troll, quite green and gaunt like Grendel and its ilk, has regenerative capabilities. The Shadowrun troll is merely a magically mutated human with regeneration AND weird rock-shaped horn-like growths everywhere.
The Iron Kindgom troll, massive, blue, regenerative and semi-stone-like, somehow combines all of this with a new look. I couldn’t tell you why or how they came to be…
All I know is that the first time I read about them in the Iron Kingdoms sourcebooks for D&D, I just fell in love with them.
As for purple… Few people use that color at all for purposes other than painting a chaos army, and that’s a crying shame ! Well done on using it.

I actually found this fun to watch. Nicely done video
Thanks !
We try…
I’m really liking the tutorials except the sound, I have the volume cranked and I can still barely hear you.
Thank you !
I’m sorry about the sound… Nothing I can do at this point, however. I am told the newest tutorials are better in that respect.
