Hi, Folks !


This is Kurgash, one of the higher ranked orc generals, who commanded mordor's troops on the fields of pelennor. He was a giant, even among tall orcs and known for his distinctive brutality against his inferiors and enemies, of course.

The were only a few things to remove from the base-figure (Jakks WWE-Kane) : some volume of both bizeps; the wristband on the left, the glove on the right an a bit of the shoe-soles.

The list of the add-ons is a little bit longer :

Shirt and trousers are sculpted. I've inprinted a rough weaving-pattern into the medium cured apoxy sculp. Since I wanted the straps of the shin-armor to be embedded into the fabrik of the trousers, I had to reconsiders this by sculpting slots and tucks.
Straps are fake-leather.
The face, ears, shoes and embossments of the armor is sculpted too. Rubber, or plastic as base for most parts of the armor. I re-casted the hip- and shin-armor of a Gothmog-figure.
Forearm-armor made of aluminum.
All chain-mail is made of a real metal-chain. I like, the way this turned out, a lot ! Wasn't that easy to find such a thin chain in this dark chrome color. I didn't want to use a silver/gold one and paint it... likely the paint would have clotted all the chain-links.

The ponytail is from a Lord of the rings-Eomer helmet. Filed a bit off and re-sculpted the transition from head to it.

I glued black linen on both sides of a
coat-tail from a LOTR-Haradrim-figure, to get a stiff tuck-structure.

Decapitaded head : Jakks WWE "Triple H"-Figure, which neck and closed eyes are sculpted.

The sword is sculpted from scratch. Made of pro-create-sculpy.

I used colors from Citadel and Rewell.

Let me know, what you think and leave a comment.

Best regards !
