Are you impugning Ork culture?

Racist.
I have neither the time nor the crayons to explain why you are wrong.

Orks are imposters - Unterorks. The only true Orcs are those of Tolkien lineage, with swarthy skins not green.

It's like a uniform. Historically correct orcs are swarthy in colour not green. Having green orcs is like painting your Napoleonic British with Purple uniforms or the Russians with orange uniforms, It is just not right.

Should I paint Chieftains black with green stripes, or green with black stripes?

Based on the Voynich Manuscript Orcs (or Orks or Orques) are green. This predates Tolkien by at least three hundred years

Historically correct is from the writings of his Holiness J.R.R Tolkien. Anything else is Heresy :)

And we are only having a banter on the colour of of Orcs..... unless anyone has ever seen one (when they were sober)

I thought that the Voynich Manuscript proved the existence of Yoda?

You needed proof that Yoda exists? I thought that was a given. :)

Corrected:  Proof you needed that Yoda exists? A given I though that was.

Starting to feel human again after picking up a virus at the Partizan show and having to spend 4 days in bed this week.  Not ideal with the amount of jobs needing to be done at the moment!
