Finished two troops of ax or reborn legionaries. The only chaff in my orc army was a couple og troops of skulks, and have not been so satisfied with the performance of them. So good to try something new.




I was in luck this weekend, when I searched through my piles of unfinished grey, looking for basing materials. In a small box , was a shitload of old gw snotlings. So now the next project is 3 troops of orclings. That should be a decent amount of chaff for now :grin:

I hear that’s how they grow in the wild too :mushroom:

Orc troops look aces as ever, great work. Dig the Underworlds dude in there.

Not much painting to show off, because my free time goes to some house renovating. But did buy some new stuff . Bought some riftforged models to supplement my orcs, since I don’t really think the normal orcs are at a good place at the moment pre clash of Kings, and its nice to have some variety.

So I did a little bit off assembling of the riftforged shrine. And somehow the mantic designers thought it was a good idea to design the fucking Batman logo at the front.

So looked in my bits box and found some old unused orcs Shields to cover it Up. MUCH Better :joy:

Hopefully I will get some time soon to continue and paint my orclings and the shrine.

Finished the riftforged shrine this weekend. Really wanted it to pop, and make it a center piece in the army, so took out the airbrush and played around with fluorescent paint to make the lava and “orc runes” glow and make a little bit of osl. When the piece was finished I got the crazy idea to make lightning effect from the hammers :partying_face::zap:First time making lightning , so was quite pleased with the outcome.

Been painting up another couple of units for my ever growing orc army.
The first one is a riftforged orc Stormslayer. I really like the design of this model, but changed a little bit for the arm pose, compared to the box art. I wanted it to look a little bit more in a fighting pose.


The other model I painted, is one og those new gw orc models. Really cool model and I wanted to use him as one of my mounted orc heroes. I just didn’t realise how freaking huge the model was. So I had to build the 25x50 mm base to protrude over the edge for the model to fit. :sweat_smile: I think it works :smile::metal:t3:



I have painted up 3 troops of orclings and another troop of orcs, just need to finish the bases. And after that I have assembled enough for 2 orc regiments.

Great paint as always but WOW that overhang :sweat_smile: :star_struck: :clap: He’d be great as an Orc / RFO chariot hero but damn impressive basing as is.

Thank you @Boss_Salvage . I already painted a chariot hero, that never gets used, so no point in painting more :sweat_smile:

I can respect that, but another option: Fightwagon troop :wink:

A troop of orcs I finished this evening, with a single human scum who thinks he stands a chance against the mighty orcs!


And a single troop of orclings done. Two more troops on the way, just need some resin on the bases to cure first.

Two more troops of orclings done. For these I added some old snotling pumpwagons, to really make people scared of the ever so "fighty " orclings :sweat_smile::metal:t3:




Next up is two regiments of orcs :fire::axe:

lovely work as always, I particularly like how your posts have a theme tune as I can’t stop humming it when your name comes up.

Thank you @Gerrcinn. Yeah, that Trogdor theme song is awesome! :metal:t3::fire:

I finished 3 regiments of orcs.
The first two regiments I will use as either longax or Riftforged Legionaires.




The last regiment is moreax. I can’t believe I haven’t painted any moreax before, but better late than never! Unfortunately these guys was hit by a fireball explosion in the rear :fire:. So I feel a little sad for them :sweat_smile:



And with that, I finished my army for a tournament next weekend. But don’t worry, I have a lot more orcs lying around to paint :star_struck:
