Here are some that I've recently finished: First off is an old Grenadier "not Tim" the Wizard: He's been doing cost summoning: A Ral Partha Water Spirit: and a Ral partha Air Elemental: Maybe they can help fight off this Grenadier Winged Serpent:

Morgoth used them in the wars of the First Age, of Middle Earth. Most of them perished after the War of Wrath. Some few seem to have escaped into the northern regions of Middle-earth, beyond the Grey Mountains. As the millennia passed, their numbers grew, until they became a serious threat in the later centuries of the Third Age to the Dwarves that mined the Grey Mountains. In the year 2589 of the Third Age, Dáin I, King of Durin's Folk, and his second son Frór were slain at the gates of their halls by a Cold-drake. The attacks of these fearsome creatures persuaded the Dwarves to migrate eastwards from the Grey Mountains, and it was soon afterward that their realms in the Iron Hills and at Erebor were established. Of the history of the Cold-drakes after this period we are given no hint. Four hundred years later, at the time of Bilbo Baggins' journey to Erebor, they seem to have left the Grey Mountains. It is possible that the Orcs who colonized the Mountains after the departure of the Dwarves drove them back into the cold wintry wastes to the north, but we can do no more than speculate on their ultimate fate.
