there's a nice uniformity in the ranks of troops, as shown in that first photo. I like how you've painted the flag as well.

Thank you, I used Tolkien's sketch if the Lidless Eye.

An orc Big guy!

Another great great army!

which reference is Wolf/Boar/Erm... Riders?
They are no goblin nor orcs

I thought they were FO7?
Leon?

Looking suitably orcish. Very nice.

Pale orcs! How not green

I think they are a mix of FO6 and FO7 on the rather legless boars.

I went sallow as per Tolkien....

Not seen em that colour before - usual debate  is green or grey ?

Tolkien calls them swarthy or sallow, the Uruks are Darker.

So I paint mine

Goblins Yellow-brown- leather brown
Orcs slichtly darker
Uruks - Negro flesh

THe reason the GW orcs are green is that when they first produced them and painted them as per Tolkien, the Tolkien familly were quite protective and insular and threatened to sue them.  So they changed the colour.

Urban Myth??

Another fine job, Will !

They're not so much legless as rather stretched forward and back in a pre-photography gallopinghorse pose
