I’ve been properly basing all of my orcs and goblins and some of these paint jobs were done myself as a teenager or in my mid twenties.
Sometimes you need to let the teenage you be part of the you of today that has the big green army like in the warhammer armies books that he always wanted back then. Proudly rank up his paint jobs alongside the minis painted after 20 years more experience.
Include yourself in yourself.
I’m so excited!
Sentinals!
Cold One knights join the company. I bought these second hand and touched up the paint. Just the standard bearer left (that needs painting from scratch).
Come to bed.
I was rewatching the Ralph Bakshi Lord of the Rings cartoon movie for the first time in many years and I forgot how Stoney Baloney this movie was! I realize that they basically ran out of money and had to use all the rotoscope footage they had which is why the story moves along so jarringly quick. There’s a whole 12 minute chase scene where it’s basically horse dressage while Frodo tries to get away. But this is it! This is how I fell in love with orcs! I saw these guys in this and the Hobbit cartoon and it rocked my world. Who were these fanged and tusked guys and where can I find more!? Luckily it was the early-ish 1990’s and I would soon be provided so much to work with as Magic the Gathering, Warcraft: Orcs and Humans, and my discovery of Warhammer Fantasy Battles would happen soon in quick succession not to mention that these movies would be remade by Peter Jackson as the new millennium rolled in. What a movie! What a legacy! What an impact on my life!

2024 is coming to a close so here's everything i painted this year. 299 miniatures by my count. I'm not sure if I'll be able to match this pace next year but I'll certainly try.
My poison tree frog inspired squig squad. Not all of them match a real world frog coloration. I definitely took some liberties.
Happy Confederate Surrender Day!
