I agree with the rest it's a super cool idea, I already have the duped miniatures... I am just waiting to level up further so the difference would become noticeable enough... hahaha
I still owe you a left hand painted miniature!! oO'

Painting a new version of your first ever mini is a great idea for a project!
I haven't painted an Orc for decades so I went so far as to browse ebay to see if my first mini (FTO11* Orc Chief with Sword and Flail) could be had - he could! Then I though how crappy the mini looked compared with the new 'Orruks' so I've gone and ordered one of those instead.

Curse you for distracting me from Project Nurgle! :curse:

Thanks all:)

Dave - kind of misses the point? :dazed:

Yes, it's a double distraction! First you distract me with your 'Painting a new version of your first ever project' then I distract myself from that by looking at the shiny new Orruks! :silly!:

Ha ha! yeah Krule we have to try every which way to win the war lol :)

Well you have good painting nights and you have bad, last night was BAD :crying: Waiting for some stuff for my Gobbo so Andy & I were going to paint the same mini but Oh my god the casting was truly awful, not since finecast have I seen such awfulness, it was like Satan himself had come to earth sculpted and cast the mini and gone back to hell laughing. :devil: So in a fit of temper and five blasted hours of trying it went across the room.

Anyway, tonight has been a much, much better painting experience and has fulfilled me with my painting mojo once again. :)

Dave talking about Orcs ive just been adding a few finishing touches to my duel, namely adding a little lizard, more lovely saliva spitting out of the mouth and improving the contrast and vegetation of the rocks.
Im very happy with the whole scene now :)

I know why they fight :) Only one person on the world should have this tattoo on his left hand :) (ok, I know, it is not the same, but add one line to dwarf one ...)

I think that just means they joined the same fraternity.

I have no idea whether that joke translates into British.

Don't really want to say as ive contacted them for a replacement hoping its a one off, also ive had other minis from them which are high quality.

The 'then and now' miniature idea is a lovely one....real shame I offloaded huge amounts of my 80's/90's GW miniatures about 5 years ago when they were unearthed from my parent attic.

Unfortunately at the time I ad no interest in getting back into the hobby....

There are a few left I believe...might dig them out and see whats worth looking at.

That nose is lovely and the big mushroom makes it such a nicely goblinthemed base...
Love the contrast in the skin!

LOVE that goblin beestabber! You're achieving such wonderfully sharp detail in your painting right now and creating superb scenes to showcase your figures (must be exciting!). How do you get those great striations in the rocks?
