I finished some GS work on this Ghorgon I bought off eBay. It didn't have a loin cloth, necklace (I used a Treeman beard instead), spear tip, etc., but I think some of these Wood Elf Treeman bits worked rather well! What do you guys think? Do I need to change anything?

Those Treeman bits work well - it looks good.

Can you add some more trinkets? (say from Giant kit) Or you may add some stuff on base, not on miniature (some trees and woody elves/treemen fighting with Ghorgon. Also he can hold tree as a weapon ).
Beard is awesome!

Third big beastie modeled! Trinkets - YES! I'll add those last. Gotta paint them first. It'd be a nightmare of a job with everything on it.

They look fantastic! Painting them look quite daunting indeed!

Yeah, sometimes I have to force myself, mentally, to sit down and put paint on my pallet. Getting past the base coat is the hardest part for me. Once the base coat is done, and I've started on the following stages, the rest goes rather quickly.

I really like this army you are making!
Hope you don't mind me copying the bases for my Wood Elf army ;-)

Yeah the trinkets are a pain with the painting (also I've snapped bits off my Ghorgons more than a couple of times). I ended up leaving off the skirt/loincloth bit separately to paint mine and that made it a bit easier. What a force of beasties you have now Love it haha.

Very impressive unit, and I really like the green cloth - it's such a typical Wood Elf colour that seeing their mortal enemies lined up in it feels totally wrong - which is the impression you should get from Beastmen!
Is the banner beastskull sigil freehand?

Amazing work Mottdon. That skirmish set tree is sweet. I only see 1 unit filler (the tree?)
The shaman at the front fits in so nicely but still stands out as he should.
