Callum & Grandad's Middle Earth Armies - Orcs
« on: August 29, 2016, 06:18:25 PM »
My foray into Mordor stared out with the few plastic and metal orcs that came with the magazines and it just grew with some purchases of second hand figures and a few gifts from other wargamers.  Now we have a sizeable force for the Dark Lord. 

Cave Trolls


Mordor Trolls


Converted Standard bearer


Converted Captains




Rank and File
Converted spearorcs - if you are old enough you might recognise that the spear arms spare ones from the original Drastic Plastic orcs!








The Warg Riders






The Knights


The Boss


The Army

 :) That's quite an army!! I'm afraid it will be a hard task for the goodies to beat them all...

Watching these I cannot but hear inside my mind the Mordor theme from the movies...

Chan, chatachan, chatachan...  lol

Nice work on those chaps, specially the alternative colours you used, very original.

Nice array. Very impressive and intimidating. (Especially having to move all those individual bases. :D ) Hope you have fun with them!
