Some news, at last! Not that I stopped painting, but it has become increasingly difficult to take decent pictures: no time, no place, no good light...
I take benefit of a few days off to show you some new figures for the Green Horde. First, some Orc warriors from the 80s:
Among them, the standard bearer has its own story. This figure is the standard bearer of a famous Regiment of Renown, Harboth and the Black Mountains Boys.
I've just recently discovered its existence, after some comments here and on the LAF forum. I had painted a Citadel preslotta Orc, and I was told that it was very similar to a standard bearer by the same manufacturer. Indeed ? Never saw this fig before, but I began to search for it, and with luck, found it on a second hand website, sold by a guy named Nico, living in Lyon like me! So Nico, if you read this post, you know that I have painted this very nice Orc, at last, and I hope you find it not too badly painted.
Here you are both figures side by side:
Next figure is Maniac, a C15 Orc, a range sculpted by Alan and Michael Perry and released in 1985.
Though rather old, these Citadel figures are really nice, and I wish to find (and paint) more of them.
During last summer, I've also painted some more archers from various manufacturers. From left to right: Citadel, Citadel (an Orc of the White Hand, from 1980's Lord of the Rings range - he changed side for the Red Eye apparently), Grenadier, Old Glory and Reaper Bones.
Last but not least, I added 5 more Wolf Riders to my heavy cav unit, including a standard bearer and a drummer.
They will certainly be impressive on the battlefield.
A few close-ups:
I hope we will find time to play at least a game during Christmas :)
