How I am painting my Hunter Orcs part 1

I want to have several armies in The Hobbit Strategy Battle game, both good and evil sides which I hope will enable me to play more often, and gives me the opportunity to collect paint and play with more models. That said I decided to add a war band of Hunter Orcs on foot to the warband of Hunter Orcs on Fell Wargs that I am already working on.  As my 1st post on this blog I thought I would share how I am painting my Hunter Orcs.

I started by pre-basing the orcs with a small basing matieral then Priming the orcs with Chaos Black Primer.  Next I based all the orcs with Zandri Dust- I made sure that this was a VERY thin layer and if needed did a second thin layer to get the coverage I wanted.



My next step was to wash the entire model with Seiphim Sepia again a very thin layer, avoiding puddles and trying to keep it as even a possible.

So that is where I am at with them now.  Next step will be to start layering the flesh, then picking out armor and leather. I will update what I get done in the next week.  

I also had the opportunity this week to finally base my dwarf Rangers completing them so I thought I would include a few pictures of finished models here as well.






Thanks for Reading I plan to update at least once a week. so watch here for more.

  1. Great work on your models - the highlights on your rangers is very good. Out of curiosity (as a Dwarf player), do you use Warriors or elites (Khazad Guards, Iron Guards, Vault Wardens) too? Any heroes yet to lead the band?
