Great miniatures from Grenadier, sculpted Mr Nick Lund purchased in the 1980's. The orcs come from various packs of Grenadier Fantasy Warriors range. The first orc with axe and shield is from Fantasy Warriors pack 943 orcs with hand weapons. The second orc with spiked mace comes from unknown pack, perhaps a variation from pack 942. The third is from Fantasy Warriors pack 948 orcs with bows. Finally the fourth is from Fantasy Warriors pack 944 orcs with pole arms.
The orc skins colours used were:
1. Foundry paint Moss Shade 29A.
2. Foundry paint Moss 29B.
3. Foundry paint Moss Light 29C + a touch of Moss 29B.
4. Final extreme highlight was Foundry Moss light 29C.
The first, second & fourth orcs had an ink wash/glaze to produce a more green flesh tone. However the orc with just the bow did not have this wash/glaze. I have to say I prefer it & will paint future orcs with this mix of paints.
