Wild Dogs and Crazy Pacmen of Doom...

Squig Hoppers and 2x 5 Wolf Riders with muso and spears are the latest additions to the painted ranks. With so much to paint and so little time, it leaves little room for writing lengthy blog posts.

It Doesn't Matter If You're Black or White...

The first rank for each orc unit and the Black Orcs have been completed. The Black Orcs are terrific models and great to paint. They took a lot less time than the vanilla orcs due to my colour choices. Next on the painting block is the Squig Hoppers.

Squig Wagon...

The scratch built Snotling Pump Wagon is now complete. Aside from my 'effort' in sculpting my second Tomb Scorpion, this is actually my first scratch built model and I am very happy with the result. It looks nothing like a Snotling Pump Wagon, but follows my original concept very well. It's made from balsa and God knows what else from my bits box. I like how the shield came out also.

Lazy Gobbo, Scary Troll...

The troll is of course from Battle for Skull Pass, I just added the chain for a little more interest. As he is going to be used (for now) as a regiment filler, I figured he would look better as a slave of sorts. The colour is based off the Warmachine Trollbloods. The other miniature is a converted Gnoblar which will act as an Animosity marker. Lazy Goblin!

Goblins With Spears...

Spear Chukkas, red team and blue team. Nothing special with modeling except sticking them on bases. The models are nice, esp the chukka itself. I do like the way the metal has turned out on these also. Basically black undercoat, Boltgun Metal drybrush, my fancy 'rust' wash, Brown Ink, then another Boltgun Metal drybrush.

Orcs with guns...

The latest addition to the army is a Rock Lobba, made from an old Empire cannon and some common gobbos (and a couple of Empire bits here and there). The cannon was suitably hacked up and 'orc-ified' to help the looted feel of the machine. I do really like the actual Lobba model, but am also a cheap ass also so this will have to do. It's always nice to include in your army something people don't expect to see aswell.

The Green Tide Begins...

To the side of Warmachine I've begun the construction and painting of 2250pts of Orcs and Goblins. I have the noble idea of having them all finished in time for Hamiton's Over The Top 09 in February. Here's the start! I've also finished 3 fanatics, a Night Goblin Shaman, a Rock Lobba, and 2 Bolt Chukka's... pics to follow.
