Waagh! Aaargh!


Here's the WiP Orc force for the Team Tourney. As you can see, there's a bunch of new models in there (wolf riders, and a pair of heroes; BSB and General), along with a new GF9 cavalry tray - thanks Mark! Progress has been steady - the challenge will be completing the two infantry blocks but with 6 weeks left I think it can be done.

Here are the next steps:
1) finish up goblin wolf riders - hopefully tonight
2) base, prime & paint both hero models
3) complete details on Squig Hoppers
4) finish infantry block 1
5) start and finish infantry block 2
6) come up with some cool standard ideas x3
7) base and paint movement trays

Some GF9 movement trays are on order and should be here by next week. I also have magnetized bases on the radar but that's more of a luxury at this point - as is a display board that holds da boyz and our Skaven allies.

Progress - onwards and upwards!!



Progress has been slow but steady. I settled on a color scheme for the Boyz, and have a unit of Goblin Wolf Riders and the Orc Warboss kit on their way to me in the mail...With eight weeks left, my plan is crank out 10 painted Boyz a week, and wrap up everything else afterwards. Yeesh!

If I'm feeling really ambitious, I'll magnetize everything on GF9 style trays.
