The new ORC team

You wouldn't believe it, Shadowforge have done it again!

They have reinvented their range with a very humourous range of Orc 'fantasy football' figures. These are not yet available for purchase from the website (www.shadowforge.com.au).

They will be slightly more expensive than the rest of their range due to their increase in size (orcs require more metal than skimpily clad elves!) and the spiky nature of the miniatures, Neil anticipates will wear out the moulds in half the normal time.

When I fist saw these miniatures, in the greens, I was skeptical that the concept would be a seller. Now I've seen a painted set, however, I'm certain that the figures are Great.

Lots of fun here, and there are 16 individual figures for the pitch plus another 10 for the sideline (Assistant coaches, head coaches, apothecaries, personal trainers, physiotherapists, cheerleaders etc.)

All I have left to do is apologise for the appalling shots I've taken. They were taken with a shaky hand (I was just about to conduct the award ceremony at CanCon) - so only one photo is without blur. Apologies, but hopefully you can see the gist of the figures, even if there is very little detail.

Renaming .jpg files to .txt files on Geocities means the pictures aren't blocked by Geocities when they realise a 3rd party webpage is calling the images. They will allow it if they're .txt files.

So I'm rorting Geocities' policy. Understand why now? I deliberately renamed them.

However, for some reason I couldn't get TBB to embed the pictures, so I developed a quick web page instead.
