As promised, I have painted five lovely orcs to add to my Orcmas warbands. These are from the currently discontinued Wargames Foundry line of Kev Adams orcs (my fingers are still crossed that they are re-released in the future!) These were some of my favourite sculpts from the entire line, so I am glad I was able to purchase them before they disappeared.
As you can see, the character and goofiness of these figures is amazing. I had some closeup photos of each orc on his own, but I think I will have to save those for another post to give a little backstory to each one. Personally, I think they deserve it, don't you?
Enjoy!

Goblins join the fray!
In my ongoing efforts to finish projects I have started, I have been plugging away at my Orcmas themed miniatures. This past month, I finished a few goblins, which I finally got around to photographing this past week.
The goblins are Kev Adams sculpts, classic stuff from the 90's! These guys have been sitting in my stash for a couple years now, so I was very happy to finally get some paint on them.
The jester goblin is actually from the currently discontinued Wargames Foundry line, while the rest are GW night goblins. The double-based goblins are squig prodders. I experimented a bit with the fleshtones on these, with some receiving a more green-yellow-brown shade, and the others using the Wargames Foundry Moss Green palette (Triad 29). I find the Moss is great for goblins, but a bit too pale (IMO) for orcs.
Here are the little blighters with their Boss, Gobbo Clawz:
What I have left for this project: five foundry orcs (painted but not posted) and six more GW goblins (just waiting to be primed). I hope you enjoy these little guys as much as I did, any feedback is appreciated.
