Before popping off to my health sabbatical, I got bored with painting Elves, so decided they needed some enemies, instead of fighting among themselves.

So, three different paining ideas for three regiments of Orcs.

Three "uniform" schemes

I painted these Mantic Orcs mainly with contrast pants, and yes, I forgot to take pictures. But there’s nothing new or exciting here I’m afraid, so nothing really missed!

I didn’t want to paint them all the “usual” green, so mixed in a red skinned unit to add variety. I will continue with this with additional units going forwards.

I still have to finalize the basing and make the “Statue” on the “Gold” orc base more dramatic. But it’s supposed to represent a basic idol for their “god”, whatever that is. But I’ll tart it up next.

I also need to paint some simple shield patterns on two of the units.

The “Skull” shield was done with watered down white paint and splodged on the shield and moved around with the brush to make the basic skull shape. When dry, I added the features with black paint.

I’ll add something similar on the other units.

Next, I need to finish the Elves, then make a few more Orc units and finally get to Battle!

Happy Gaming!
