What, no love for siege machines? Not that it matters to me because I'd rather do Command or a Monster.

I chose the monster only since I have an Isengard troll to paint. Well, put together, too. :lol:
I plan on magnetizing the arms, weapons and shield so they can have diversity and options. Probably irrelevant info. :oops:

I was really torn on this one. I have a billion (maybe a little less) Rohan I am trying to get busy on so I was tempted by Command, but I also have some Ents, Spider Queens and Trolls waiting to join my ranks. I really need a catalyst to take on one of these Monsters so that's where I threw my vote. Just not sure which of the above it will be.

We can let this vote run for a couple of weeks as Hilbert has set and whichever is the winner, we can do for September. October will then resume our usual challenges.

I think this will make a nice break from our usual challenges so I think we'll do a special challenge every few months.

Also thanks to all who've suggested their ideas.

I voted monster as I need to paint a couple of half trolls sometime in the next decade.

Well according to the SBG rules and the Games Workshop website he is classed as a monster. Based on this I think it should be included. :-D

I personally would count the Balrog as a monster. Afterall it does say in his profile he is a monster even if it does say he is a spirit, doesn't stop him being a monster.
