Orc Fanged Skull Tribe...

As you will no doubt be aware, this month is Orctober! I have been celebrating this on my main blog by digging out a pile of Mantic plastic orcs that I bought in a sale a couple of years back and getting them ready for some 2nd edition combat.

I have been running a step-by-step guide to how I paint Orcs, which isn't the most scientific of approaches but the end result is, I think, quite good.

Anyway, here is the first unit finished - the Fanged Skull Tribe!

Svart Död Troll...

As promised last month here is the other Heartbreaker troll from their OOP Magic: The Gathering range, a Sedge Troll (#9125).


As with the other Tim Prow sculpted trolls I went with the back skin colour scheme which works well on a miniature this size. The key to the scheme is to use buff rather than white as the colour to lighten the black otherwise it become too stark. Here are all three Heartbreaker trolls ready to for some "Olde Skool" action...

Svart Död Trolls...

Real life and other hobby distractions have led to me neglecting my WHFB2 project, but a new year and new plans, so...


I dug out these OOP Heartbreaker Hobbies from 1994 sculpted by Tim Prow. Part of their Fantasy Miniatures line, they are Troll with Axe (#HBH3605) and Troll with Clubs (#HBH3606).  Not the world's greatest models but a bit of fun I painted them up with black skin for a bit of variety.


I have subsequently found another Heartbreaker troll from their Magic: The Gathering range, a Sedge Troll (#9125) which shares the same body so will be added to these two soon...
