Continue to really like your color choices, Llc.
I also like the "shield shop" in the background, "Shields for the discriminating Orc - we custom fit".

I followed everyone's excellent advice



I'll probably go with the dark green shields with maybe similar designs on them for the next unit.

But that will have to wait because these guys need their teeth done and I've started up the trolls as the next unit.

I have said repeatedly here that English in NOT my first language. I don't believe it was Noah's either.   ;)

Hi Bill,.......At least (as far as I can tell).......You chaps, over the other side of the pond, pronounce (and spell) aluminum correctly.

I always thought it was aluminium.

From a quick 'Google' it sounds like the chap who discovered it, changed the spelling at least couple of times !  ;)

Those guys look GREAT! One thought re the shields for eh next ones being green. If they are connected to LoTR remember the Riders of Rohan had green shields, so might want a different color. Mine have dark gray with a few bare metal bits and rust. Just a thought.

Good point Terry37,  I'll be using green for the Riders but if I do use green on these guys it will be quite dark.  More of a green-black.

Working on the skin for the trolls and experimenting to see how the colors I used on the orcs work on these guys.

Remember Techno knew Noah personally!  ;) ;D

Went with some very dirty yellow cloth.  The orange comes in in with the leather. 



I think that the wood and fur need to be brought up closer to their original basecoats.

Looking damn good, already !!

These guys are approaching done.  I feel that more should be done on their faces but not sure what exactly.  I guess I could go for another highlight.
