Thanks, chaps. Here's an old Ral Partha giant goblin. I've been planning some Tolkien orcs for a while. I reckon this fellow and his ilk fit the bill as uruks.

Another orc - a Kev Adams one, but rather more compatible with the Perry ones than some of his others.

Waaay! Dragunz! ;) I like how you've done that. Makes the scaly texture pop.

I love the colours you use. Is that Orc still available?

I fear not. He came out in 1987, as part of the command group that accompanied Citadel's first plastic boxed set (including these chaps). Oddly, the metal command figures were much smaller than the troopers. The leader is short but beefy, but the champion, standard bearer and musician are wiry, crouching creatures that are dwarfed by their followers. Good miniatures, though - some of the more restrained and Perry-like Adams sculpts.

With Dragon Rampant imminent, I've been trying to crank out more troops for our cave-goblin and reptilian forces. Here are a few more vile orcs:

Love what you did with the shield and the quiver!

Late again...this happens a lot at my age. Although I have a special fondness for the Dragon, they are all BEAUTIFUL creations. OUTSTANDING WORK!

Thanks, Rhoderic and DeafNala!

Here are some more goblins. The mutants and club-wielder are destined for a "ravenous horde" unit in Dragon Rampant, but I'm planning to use the chap with the scimitar and horned helmet in a somewhat more formidable unit - Light Foot with the Offensive upgrade, perhaps, or even Bellicose Foot.

The Little Lads are UBERCOOL & BEAUTIFULLY painted. The Fuzzy One is my favorite. VERY WELL DONE, one & all!

So much goodness in this thread.  All the classic miniatures, the artwork on the shields, and the more muted paint schemes really come together.  
So many games, so little time.
