The winner of this month's Patron commission was Forest Troll Warband.
Patron Commission - February 2023 (Poll) | Imagine Minis on Patreon
Since it was not in the request the poses nor the variations I took the liberty of proposing some things.
First of all, these miniatures will be modular (I think that not all). Compared to the troll chieftain I will make some modifications, some additional wooden armor pieces and adornments to create some sort of variations. The hair will probably be different (even though most of them are using a mohawk).
Weapons: This is a really easy answer Ax... lol just kidding. Besides the Ax, I will make a Spear, bow, arrow, and wooden shield.
Glue on the back pieces: As an optional item, I will make a voodoo stick and the wooden shield, this way if you print a model mirrored and add this to the back it will look really different.
Poses: I picked 5 different poses on the internet and will probably create a similar pose on the models, not the same weapons (and effects). The only pose that I don't know how I will work with is the watcher, which requires a tactical rock and a wood on the side (you probably could replace the rock with a dead elf or something).
If you have any other requests or suggestions, please let me know in the comments below.
Best regards,

2023-02-22 19:23:15 +0000 UTCAny particular pose you didn't like?
2023-02-22 16:49:26 +0000 UTCA 'Throwing' pose would be good, that way you can use either spears or axes and it'll be pretty modular.

2023-02-21 21:26:13 +0000 UTCOh, I just meant pose doesn’t matter. Not that it has to be the exact same or anything.

2023-02-21 21:25:45 +0000 UTCAh... I see. That way is completely out of the question, doing a female variant torso and head would change a lot the bounding box on the model, meaning that I would need to support another model, 2 hours per model, and in case of failure I would need to reprint everything, so this would add up too much work and would impact the month production. I can turn 2 or 3 into females but I can't make Female/male variations in the same pose.
2023-02-21 21:24:19 +0000 UTCSame as the males. Just another way to add variety, or as a player character.

2023-02-21 21:19:37 +0000 UTCHumm. I will check this option. I don't think it's impossible. I already have a female troll sculpted therefore the base body shouldn't be that hard to adapt. What pose do you think would be good for her?
2023-02-21 21:18:26 +0000 UTCAt least one female would be nice. Since Warcraft changed how Troll females looked to have a different model for WoW and even in art kept the older design, you could just do a different modular chest and head to use the same lower body and arms.
