I'm a month late, but just saw your most recent stuff. Awesome!

Could the rat swarms be from Reaper?

Yes, I believe the rat swarms were actually from Reaper.

Thanks for the feedback.

Here's a couple of quick pre varnish snaps of some orcs to get my foot in the door for Orctober, so to speak.





I'm five short of the target I'd set myself for the month, but oh well, better than diddley squat.

I love these! Excellent painting and your choice of colours really sets a great tone for orcs. The boss looks like a Lund sculpt, but are the others by Bob Olley (from Ral Partha ranges)? I really like the sculpting style.

Those are fantastic orcs love the sculpts and your painting has certainly done them justice. Very inspirational indeed.

Not seen this thread before.  Lots of nice painting and scratch-building.  I might have to try making some of those wonky columns and a swarm of flies at some point.

Don't think these orcs have ever looked better. Nicely done with great harmony and weathering.

Those Ollie orcs are lovely. The muted colours really works on them.

Beautiful! I've seen those fantasy Star Wars minis before, and yours look fantastic!
Quick question - where does the female smith with the hammer over her shoulder come from? It's a lovely miniature. Really enjoying your painting on these!
