Thanks very much  Smiley

I've got quite a few more Orcs to paint up so I might give a none green skin tone a shot, probably a more yellowy brown tone.

I completely agree. For me there are no green orcs -unless we are talking warhammer. That's their trademark and it's okay with me there.

Nice models, I have some of them flying around but not as nicely painted. Good job!

The Big One Eyed Guy is really UBERCOOL. I love the way you painted & based him. VERY WELL DONE!

On the skin coloration question: as Creatures of Fantasy, their skin colors should be whatever strikes your fancy.

That is one seriously cool Giant  Cool

Nice colour choices to link him with the Orcses. I could ever be arsed with painting the bottom lips but they look really good.

Laughing Ferret - I had the same problem with locating a follow button on your blog - some great stuff on there!

I think the 'follow' issue is something to do with the newish changes to blogspot. I've used the 'follow by URL' option in the blogspot dashboard to add any blog recently.
