Great painting!

What colors are you using for the Uruk's skin?
Those reds look grand!

Very nice. Hope you have some of those berserker chaps too - with the skin colour you're using they'd be grand.  8) 8) 8)

Cheers folks.

@Amalric: the skin colour is achieved using a triad of GW's new paints. First Rhinox hide, then a layer of Doombull brown, a wash of Agarax Earthshade, layer of Doombull brown and final highlight of Tuskgor fur.

@Vanvlak I do indeed have some berserkers. I bought them second hand on eBay to replace ones I'd sold so they need their previous attempted paint jobs stripped first.

Ah, good - given the recipe above, they'll look splendid. Go on, put them at the top of the list of Orcs to do  :D

The berserkers get their fairy power spray bath tomorrow night then they'll be the next thing to paint. They were my favourite uruks to paint before. I should have at least 8 archers done to show you all before then.

These are lovely - the contrast between the skin and the leather is great, you often see the skin too dark on these models and they end up looking a bit too brown.

Well the Berserkers have been put in to soak, ready to paint next week when I'm back home.

Tonight I finished off the Uruk-Hai Archers.

Looking good. I could never do the white hand myself, always ended up looking like a flower. Yours look great though!  :D
