Reaper Cave Troll 77004

A really quick paint.  Not a whole lot of texture.  I used this one to test if Bones could be painted without primer.  While painting the only thing I noticed was that the paint flowed onto the mini differently.  Not sure if this was bad or not but I didn't like it.  After painting I noticed a small seem on the arm like the paint had split and when the arm moved you could see white.  I ended up flaking off the loose paint and touching it up before I sealed the mini.

Reaper River Trolls 14944/14455/14008

A Few months ago I painted the 3 troll figures for my Reptus army.  The Group consists of 14944 Uru, the River Troll Chief, 14455 Uszkuluz Greyhide Troll Shaman, and 14008 River Troll.  I like them visually as they look like some serious muscle.  I've only used them in a few games but what I remember is that they do good against light infantry.  All have regerneration 4 so if they are only taking light wounds they can stay in the game for a long time.  Add in the shamans healing ability and the group has some staying power.  thinking about adding another River Troll for a true wall of green muscle.
