Chronicles of Narnia Diarama

[Nomadik]

Ive been itching to do a Chronicles of Narnia Diarama.. Im thinking of the scene where all the evil creatures and the White Witch are dancing around Aslan, and shaving his mane, as two of the children watch from behind. Anyone have any suggestions for a good White Witch, two children(girls), and a Lion?

That sounds like a really great idea...

I am not sure at the moment what figures you might use but IMO it would be vital that the White Witch doesn\'t look like an evil person. Part of the power of this book/scene is the tension caused by the fact that the White Witch is a beautiful woman who easily captivates her victims. Only her acts are evil. Perhaps a converted Reaper female hero?

What about a slight conversion of Rackham\'s pythie?

Some company makes a few minis for something called \"Vapire Wars\" or something like that, I remember they had some victorian children... I can\'t remember, but they may ahve all been monsters... Anyways, Tzarina Katrin would be a good bet, I\'ve always seen the White Witch with a fur line coat. Don\'t forget her Dwarf servent!

Ya Vampire Wars has a set ... I don\'t know if they\'re quite right for Narnia ... See for yourself:

Also Eureka makes victorian children that you might be able to get a Lucy out of - I always pictured Susan a bit taller and thinner so that still remains to be found I reckon ...

Here\'s the Eureka pic but it\'s VERY blurry:

Narnia from C.S. Lewis...that\'s good!!!

The series had great covers and this can be a template for your diorama...hmmm....turkish delights...

You can get good lions from wargamesfoundry.com. For the queen...maybe a converted ice queen of kislev from GW?

Good luck btw

I dunno, I find the model very 2D. It reminds me of GW\'s older stuff. However, I guess if you don\'t want to do any big conversion that would be fine.

Im not sure if I can find some decent children.. at least two girls.. Does reaper have a villager set with children?
