Last weekend I decided to get a wriggle on and get some more figures .. mostly done.
I wanted to do something quick and Orcs seem to be easy to paint.. and they are.
These are not highlighted but seriously some of them don’t need it.
Many have no weapon as these are all second hand figs that I have stripped , re primed and now painted.
There are others that need arms sculpted on and I have decided to do that later… crazy I know.. but I wanted it now…
Anyways… on with he pictures.. as per usual..
Hand weapon and shield warriors group 1
Hand weapon and shield warriors group 2
Spear armed warriors group 3
Two handed weapon warriors group 4
two handed weapon warrior, Spear armed warriors (Spear fixed up by adding a blade so could be a two handed weapon or spear really. The third one needs arms added and weapon as conversion)
These three are really interesting… these are Uruk-Hai. I trimmed off the big engineers helmets and segmented armour to make them look like leather bodice, two of them need weapons added. I may beat some copper wire flat to make crude swords..thats another article.

Flash mob photo…
There you have it 24 Orcs… is that 2 Dozen or a a pod?
Now all I nee is a little Hobbit.. called Willy maybe even…
one eyed Willey … 
Nice choice of backdrop with the LOTR rulebook. Does help to make the figures look a bit darker though.
Like the dark and grimey look though I think they need a mat varnish at least on their flesh to loose some of the shineyness.
Why did you modify the uruk hai? Not that it’s bad or anything, in fact from the picture I wouldn’t have realised they weren’t supposed to be that way. Just interested.
Also interested to hear how your bashed copper wire works out.
Anyway all that aside good work not just the content but with actually doing the work in the first place. Feeling guilty again as I did not do anything in the weekend although having time for once to do some.
