The muted tones on those orcs really bring them to life

They do look rather nice, are they perhaps the old citadel range?

Post by: matakishi on March 06, 2012, 02:25:44 PM: Yes they're Dixon Ronin from around 1984. The cart is a Tabletop Games ork pram of similar vintage with a converted Pulp Miniatures child in it. I have a few more of this range to do for my Japanese fantasy project but I'm not sure if any of them will make it into the LPL.
