From PaulSS - Grots (47pts)

 

More green-skins for the horde with a Runtherd and ten Gretchin adding a skirmish screen to the mob.

Like the rest of the recent Orks these are done from a zenithal base that seems to work much better than a light base.

These Grots are certainly grotty models, the finish on the raw models is like a cheap plastic toy and there are loads of mould lines to be cleaned up. But, after a extended cleaning they do seem to come out ok.

There are not so many areas on these for me to go nuts with the rust, but, I've added it where I can. 

The grots are small, so I think that counting as a 20mm figure would be ok, the Runtherd I'll count as a 40mm like the earlier Orks for a total of 47 points added to my total.

American Civil War Duel Totalizer: 136 foot, 2 mounted, 4 horses (825pts)

Napoleonic Duel Totalizer: 8 foot, 2 mounted (100pts)

I was surprised to see your foray into 40K Orks, Paul. I always think of you as a historical gamer, but I should know better as you have that wonderful collection of Star Wars models that you started a few years ago. Anyway, I think these look great! Even though the models themselves may have been a little nasty to work with, it's amazing how they've been elevated under your talented brush. Well done!
