The beginings of my orc team

drunkdwarf · Post by **drunkdwarf** » Thu Feb 03, 2005 3:07 am

Hey all -

Well I figured it was about time I posted some of my own stuff, and seeing as how I just finished a new orc team for an up coming tourny, I thought it was time to get out the camera.

Thanks go out to Traveller for the inspiration I drew from his killer orc team!

IÂ´m a inspirator...

.... well, welcome !

Looks great what you have done so for ! Nice use of different bits and parts ... i knew it cost not little and took quite a bit of time, to find all those things.

Just take your time when painting your minis ! I did my team under a bit time pressure. So, i think, with more time, my orcs could be better painted...

I like to see a better pict of your greenstuffed number if possible ! I m thinking to do a similar numbering on my ogres..

Nice greenstuffing - especially the goatees, mohawks etc.

What are your team colours going to be?

Very nice work, I am looking forward to see them painted. I really enjoy looking at the work you have put behind the troll.

Nice work! I like a team in which every player has an other look.
Paint them and they will look great. Want to see them painted also!

Chairface - Thanks bro!

Tante Kaethe - Thanks! And I will be posting them as I get them painted on that page. I'll post another post on talk blood bowl once they're all painted.

traveller - Yes you really gave me some great ideas. And you're right - at first I thought making a team this way would be comparable to buying the team set - but man, bits really add up! I'll do some close up shots and maybe even a tutorial for the way I did the logos and numbers, but I've also done a tutorial on green stuff casting if you want to make exact copies of small details to use on your models. You could make exact copies of plastic numbers and transfer them onto curved surfaces and such :

Ziggi Abschuss - Thats the next step! I'll propably start with my lineorcs.

Richy - Thanks, and the team colors for the toof boyz have always been black and ivory, with a few bits of red here and there. I havent yet decided if the skin tones will be uniform or variations of greens and browns...

Musta Surma - Thanks

dendron - Thanks, I'll post more pics as I get them completed.

Great conversions. It would be nice to see larger pics of your guys. I'm in the same boat with everyone else in saying, I can't wait to see what they will look like painted. Well done!!

The conversions look very good.

So I'm excited how they will look when they're painted...

Nice.

They both inspire me to make my own team and make me realise I've no chance at the same time!
