My Orcs - (New Blorcs and turn marker 30/9)
Posted: Thu Jul 15, 2010 8:34 pm
Hi everyone, first post here...
I've been away from BB för well over 10 years, but since tanks and stuff no longer seem to appeal to me, I feel it's time to come back to my all time fav GW game.
Started with some orcs, since I already had an old 40k boys box in the attic, and built my way from there.
I hope you'll enjoy 'em.
The plan is to paint a team logo and maybe a number on each shoulderpad, at the moment they are only numbered at the back.
First off some linemen. Nothing fancy, just old boys.
---
On to the blitzers, who's arms are on my painting desk as we speak. Looks a lot better with arms, I must admit
Made from Nobz, cut at the waist and legs to show some kind of movement. Arms will be a mix in with Blorc lower arms.
I think it worked out alright.
---
My only finished Blorc so far, with three of his mates standing basecoated on the desk.
Since regular Blorc legs are so tiny and silly looking, I had to give them nobz legs. I'm not the best GS artist, but I feel it went aight.
The heads are all from the nobz sprue, since I feel the helmeted ones are too commonly used. I want my orcs to have some character, and covered helmets are, well, boring.
---
Next is the semi finished (eyes not done, etc) Troll, from Neomics. Lovely miniature, but a tad small for my liking, will have to find a new one eventually.
Thanks for looking, C&C appreciated.

What I like about "Fantasy Football" is that you can stretch the general idea about "orcs". Mine are colorful and clean, other orcs are dull and red/black. I guess everyone has their idea about orcs, and mine is cartoony. Orcs should be fun, imho, that is
