Great article: very clear ideas and well illustrated. I like to see the 'motley' appearance of Mordor being taken further.

If there's one thing that really annpys me, is seeing loads and loads of exactly the same models beeing fielded...

Great suggestion to make alternative poses to the mordor range.

Great article, Wojtek!
Cheers! :wink:

Whatever happened to Thrór's article? You can see that it's been omitted. :|
Nice to see other orcs by the way. :D Good job!

actually I've never been very much interested in those plastic armies where all look alike ... ‘boy's stuff’ I'd thought ... until I came across your article!

so great to see how those fierce little creatures can be given such individual shields and weapons and be painted nicely-ugly but with care!

and the article itself is also very good to follow ...

(... so I am really tempted to take a further look at all the plastics I'd received with my Mumak package via ebay in summer. but - no no no - headshaking- that would increase the number of undone minis enourmously, I would get out of the house before spring ... ;-)

Thanx for the kind comments, much appreciated.

In January I will probably buy a digital camera and then I'll be finally able to start working on some step-by-step painting guides.

I hadn't read this article before, so it was a real gem to find!

Wonderful conversions, really opening up the orc range. And you didn't even go near the metal ones here! With your ability, there is no end to the creations you could come up with. Outstanding, I'll be looking to study this again when I have painted all the standard orcs.
