Santa Claus came late this year...

Gotta love unexpected income. Despite the fact i wanted to wait that i painted what i bought before buying anything new, i couldn't stop myself.

So i purchased ;
2xSavage Orcs Box
1xArachnarok
1xSquig herd blister. (For temporary Squig Manglers)
1xGoblin Fanatic (old metal models, Whirling Death. for 12$, i couldnt resist).

Wurrzag Part 4 . Finished for now

I decided to stop working on Wurrzag for now. My attempt at finding color, or painting them failed so far, and since he's a character, i dont really wanna mess up the paint by trying new stuff. Here is how he look so far, and how he'll most likely look for a few weeks.






So until i feel confident about my choice, i got myself a box of Savage Orc today. Some pretty nice looking plastic models, easy to fit, and the joints are almost invisible. Still undecided if i'll try to cover up a very tiny gap, or if i'll just paint him as is.

Wurrzag Part 3

I completed most of the body, with only the staff left to paint, and the warpaint.

Wurrzag Part 2

Did a little more work over the past day on good ol' Wurrzag.

I painted his mask's wood. I'm pretty happy about the jaw look, but the rest will most likely need to be redone. I did some attempt at glowing, but failed miserably, so he'll just have standard eye. OSL is still too out of my league.

New Book, New Models, Lets get on painting!

Past weeks were quite eventful ;
- Painted for an upcoming tournament (which i failed to complete, btw)
- Participated in said big local tournament
- Orcs and Goblins release...

Wait, what? Yes yes, another army. My wallet is already crying, and my mind is already flying. It was, lets face it, a pretty small release, but the model included were simply amazing.  The savage orcs are imho very nicely sculpted (still badly painted, but that's a whole other story), Warzugg is also a very nice model, and the arachnarok..... wow.

But since i dont want to get involved in a new army that i lose interest in (kinda like my Ogres, sadly), i decided to start slow, and purchase one model. From there, i'll decide if i like the look enough for another box. And after that box, i'll ask myself again if i want to invest in that army...

So i went and got myself Warzugg, the "lets-turn-all-caster-into-squiggies" crazy head-dancing around the fire Orc. After roughly 3 night worth of works, here is what i have accomplished so far ;











I really (REALLY) enjoyed him so far, and i'm really looking forward to start my Savage Orcs horde
