View Full Version : Homemade Nerak

I know that Nerak is nothing more than a repainted Swog Rider, so right now I'm trying to decide how to add him to my roster...

Do I buy an extra set of Knights so as to have an extra Swog to repaint and just print off Nerak's card picture from file?...

OR

Do I break down and try to find a more-or-less reasonably priced Nerak on ebay? (uh, good luck, right?)

I already have 2 sets of knigths and swogs, and really don't need a 3rd set of knights... but am really wanting to add Nerak to my available units for battle. (Thanks Nether... all this focusing on the orcs lately has tweaked my interest in rounding off my available orc units with Nerak!) ;)

I don't want to repaint one of my 2 existing Swogs, because, well, I USE them in my current Orc armies.... (sigh)

Anyone else go through this dilemma? How many here have purchased an extra set of knights/Swog so as to repaint a homemade Nerak? Anyone have a good argument as to why forking out $20-$30+ on ebay is a better option for getting a Nerak?

Advice appreciated.

thanks!

It will be to Nerak, what Faker was to He-man.

You should see how much those Faker figures sell for on ebay. Pretty much a European exclusive in the new wave, I believe.

Just make him. You do not hear those that made there own ice tiles complaning. The real question is if you can paint him to Nerak's standards. You can also do 2 standard bearers. And add the other two knights random body parts to the Nerak to make him look even meaner. Make them trophies.

I think the cheapest and easiest solution would be to get a third pack of Knights and Swog and then just use one of your Swogs as a proxy for Nerak.

Yeah, buy the knights and swog. Brush some white paint on the swog, print out the card, then mail the knights to me! :lol:

You do need a third set of knights :)

Actually, for those orc hoards, you need a third swog rider, too - buy at least 2 more sets :lol:
