Conversion Showcase

THE SHORT VERSION

Matthew Ward gathers examples of personalised heroes, warriors and siege engines. Small weapon swaps turn familiar Elves into Captains or spearmen, while more extensive head and limb changes reshape Thranduil, Gil-galad and Aragorn. A pale blue ghost provides an alternative Barrow-wight, and modified artillery displays its upgrades through extra magazines, flaming ammunition or severed heads. The gallery stresses clear visual changes rather than requiring every conversion to involve major sculpting.
