Well, here they are – all together! If you follow me on Twitter, you’ve (probably) already seen this picture. But here they are, posted for posterity. A reminder of what happens if you take too much time off from painting. On the plus side, the (modest) skills I previously had have started to return relatively quickly — getting the muscle memory back has be a somewhat quick process. I’m not back to where I was, but it’s getting there… Hopefully that will show in the upcoming models, and I’m making a concerted effort to paint regularly this year. And by “regularly” I mean at leastRead More →

Orc #12 – Double Fisting

The third Orc in this series is the standard Games Workshop style my other Orcs have been. Since I was painting the WizKids orcs and had this one prepped & primed, I painted him at the same time. Of the 3 models painted for the “return to painting” set, I’m happiest with this guy. I don’t really have much to say about this one… I do like how the leather came out for him. He’s less crappy than the WizKids Orcs, but he’s not as good as the other Games Workshop Orcs from before. And his mouth & eyes look pretty good too! The metalRead More →

D&D: Orc #2

Here’s the next WizKids pre-primed Orc of the triple-set… Again, a quick slap-dash paint job to get them complete was the goal. The WizKids Orcs come in a 2-pack. It was difficult to tell on this model whether the arm/shoulder pads were cloth, armor, or some combination… so I painted him as if it were cloth with metal strips to help stiffen and protect against direct blows… however, I could be way off. It’s much more obvious on this model how rusty my painting skills have gotten. There’s lots of detail on which I could have gone deeper; there are lots of obvious mistakes &Read More →

D&D: Orc #1

Note: Apologies to my Twitter fam, sorry for the upcoming duplicate posts, but here come the individual close-ups of the completed minis! This is one of three miniatures I painted after re-setting up my paint station in the small office room in the basement that I lovingly call “The Dungeon” which holds (almost) all of my hobby faff… My D&D books, models, board games, painting stuff. At the end of December 2018 I made a concerted effort to get the room actually somewhat set up and organized. Now that it’s set up, I got a chance to paint! I had this guy and two otherRead More →

New Orcs – Group Photo & Joining the Army

Just after this photo was snapped, the group ambushed the Photographer. Services will be held next Thursday. They then returned to the rest of the army. We got these two pictures from above, before they noticed and we had to run away…Read More →

Orc #11 – Follow Me to Battle!

This Orc, with his large spiked club, leads the charge – “My Choppa also smashes! Follow me, we will battle!”Read More →

Orc #10 – You Wot Mate?

Tagged: Orcs, Warhammer

I think that the creature that this Orc is about to chop said something confusing to this guy just before he swung… He’s got his head cocked in an inquisitive way.Read More →

Orc #9 – Lean Forward!

2016-09-22
On: 2016-09-22
In: Models, Orcs & Goblins
Tagged: Orcs, Warhammer

This guy is SO EXCITED to fight, he’s leaning far forward… Ah, the modeling issues of a new builder. As such, you can’t see the detail on his armour or leather hangy-down bits.Read More →

Orc #8 – Stabby Orc

2016-09-21

Tagged: Orcs, Warhammer

“Is it time to use my Choppa to to stabby stab yet?!” I painted this and the next 3 Orcs to (mostly) match the original set of Orcs that were previously posted, so they (kind of) look like a full unit…Read More →

Orc Boar Chariot

After the hiatus imposed by the Boneripper model, and the sub-standard job on the Daemonettes, I wanted to paint something a little different. I built this model a long time ago; as such, the actual build isn’t great and I never really cleaned off all of the mould lines. Regardless, I went ahead & did this one, with a little more experimentation. I used Krylon primer instead of Citadel (7$ / can vs. 20$ / can). And  I don’t mind it! It’s slightly slower to dry, but the aeration is good and the spray is a good consistency. It dries a slightly more grey thanRead More →
