Just returning to the square footage- since they are based on 1inch circles, that means 144 figs per foot. 1000 figs covers 6.94 square feet in a continuous blanket of orcish mayhem…

That is certainly a rage of orcs.

Thanks might have an orc infestation problem. Also forgot I had some 3d printed orcs to pair with plastic parts. So another bunch will be joining the army. Think at least 120 🤭

Too much math for my liking  :D

Those will add some great variety to an already amazing horde. I’m looking forward to seeing them painted!

Thanks quite some work left to do but slowly gathering the troll miniatures to support the orcs, numbers should hopefully be in the dozens with some work.

Amazing stuff. I think you probably have a problem but I'm not going to discourage you :)

The 3d printed / kitbashed hybrids look really good. Are the ones in the most recent pic using KzK bodies you mentioned earlier? And what looks like Wargames Atlantic plastic parts?

Thanks, luckily it has been a slow project having gathered miniatures over the past 10 years or so. Taking a bit of a "historical" army approach so hopefully there will also be more non-combattant miniatures such as supply wagons, siege equipment etc

The miniatures are indeed made from the same bodies as previously mentioned and mostly Wargames Atlantic parts from their historical and fantasy sets. Think they work quite well but will need some greenstuff here and there. Great way to use the large amounts of spare parts from those kits.

1,000 miniature thunderous Orc horde!
This is impressive.
Imagine the smell.

Thanks, its quite a sight all together might need a slightly bigger table as more is planned already.  :D
