I think they're the 'traditional' pig-faced orcs.

Those are definitely pig-faced orcs.  This is a supplement cover, but I can't remember its name.

magokiron:

I've seen your orc army before, it is really great a super example of a 4th ed army. I seam to remember you mentioning it was hard to get hold of miniatures where you are from, at least when you were building this army. Just shows whats possible when you have a passion for soemthing, even if it is mean and green.

Wolfie, those orcs of yours sure do look lonely, they also need more paint.

B. Basiliscus, I'll pop you in the draw all the same, I love that picture, it is certainly in the 2nd ed AD&D main books, forget which one. It's always been a favorite and they are definitely orcs. Never quite understood the spear with mini flail combo going on there though.

Awww, thanks!
I think it must be because he has awful aim and he's hoping to clip an eye or something.

Yup.

I live in Mexico, and there are FEW wargame stores over here.

Fortunately we have the web now, and I can buy lots of goods overseas (but there is a risk as my country post service is really bad and lots of parcels get "lost").

Anyhow, thanks for your kind words, and yes, I've been playing wargames for a looong time...  ;)

Best wishes.
I know you're too old to play with toy soldiers. So give them to me... NOW!

Here's an Orctober contribution of sorts.
Every Orc loves his pig and here's a step-by-step guide to how I painted 'em:
