2nd ed thrower help

Post by bound for glory »

i hate the various 2nd ed throwers that have empty hands. the elves, some dark elves, humand and orcs.
while i except that nothing can be done with the humans and orcs, i want to give my varies elves a ball. problem is, their hands are open and quite flat.
i have had a friend make and cast a bunch of balls that would look good in their hands, it looks odd.
any help or ideas?

I'm the opposite. It always annoys me when figures are sculpted holding a ball. The character with the ball, has the ball placed on his base, and it annoys me when another figure has one :)

One of this wierd little niggly things that noone else ever bothers about.

thanks boys! those new hands are great!
funny, i just thought of how i can fix the problem of the humans and orcs:put the ball in the hand that is pointing. do a simple hand/arm switch.


axiom, can you give a link?

The orcs are by Puppet Wars. And Greebo also has some heads (the ones used in their team).
