Orctober! Mercenary orc archers, first 10 done. Hopefully the different tunic colors will keep the unit from looking too uniform. I've 6 more in the wings that I'll add to the unit later, but I want to finish the Foundry Goblin Wolf riders I'm working on first.

Haha, that Orc banner is great! Also like how the tunics come in the banner blue. All the orcs should wear that imo.
So... that's a Foundry wolf?
great paintjob, honest, but somehow the wolf looks kinda off. Like a cross between a dog and a hamster.
who's sculpted that?

A day late for Orctober 
, but I've finished the musician for the mercenary archers. A bit of macabre discovery last night as I was painting and realized that the goblin face on the drum, wasn't decorative metalwork, but part of the goblin used to make the drumhead. (perfect for Halloween, but slightly grossed out my daughter). Had to rethink the color of the drum head as a result, and think I've gotten it about right for flayed goblin, but not certain it wouldn't look better as a light brown.

Really great greenskins! I love them all...though I do have to agree that the wolves are a bit dodgy...buit well painted! I'm sure on the table they will look fabulous!
Excellent work.
Cheers,

Thanks all.
Managed to get ahold of an old Pippin model. I've based him to match my elves as I've hopes that he'll someday command a Halfling ally contingent. (Sadly that contingent currently consists of this single model) To that end, I debated not painting him in the traditional colors of Gondor but I couldn't resist it in the end, that said, should I manage to get ahold of another, he'll be getting an alternative color treatment. (The white tree looks like it would make a pretty good broccoli)

In the Gondor colors he is instantly recognizable. I love him. If you put him in some other unit color how would you know it's Master Peregrin? He'll do your army justice just as he is. Very nice. Also, the blue eyes are a very nice touch.
