From KillianF - 10mm Warmaster Black Orcs (42 points)

Good day all,

Firstly thank you for the kind comments on my first post. It's provided more than a wee bit of motivation for the next few batches.

Instead of the long-promised Goths, I procrastipainted 4 bases of Forest Dragon 3d Printed Black Orcs. I also nearly finished 3 bases of Wargames Atlantic plastic Boneblade Skeletons, but they require a little more work to be complete. Painting both however allowed me to compare 3d printed and plastic models. The ability of 3d printing to capture detail and, critically, depth at 10mm far eclipses plastic in my opinion. As fun as the Boneblades are, I have a large backlog of 3d printed Forest Dragon that I think will bump up the queue.

 




Off to do sum krumpin'

If you've got the sneaking suspicion I just picked models I could get away with a quick drybrush-wash-highlight, well done, you're quite right. That was precisely what I did. Paint smart, not hard.

Although the banner was handpainted. Why paint smart when you can paint painstakingly in minuscule detail that no-one will notice?

From DaveD. Who doesn't like to a rampaging bunch of Orcs.  These look just the part . lots of aggression and I do like the massed ranks look. That's always to bonus of 10mm . That's also fine colourful banner they acquired as well. Let’s call that 42 for the total look .

Hey and Congratulations to you and your wife on your first born !
