Middle-Earth: Orc Kit-bashing

The newly revamped Middle-Earth Strategy Battle Game has caused a flurry of activity down BIG, with people dusting off armies, or in one case unearthing more troops than Sauron had at the Black Gate!!

I have a pile of plastic, largely still on the sprues, collected over the years so decided time has come to stick some of it together and slap some paint on. Of course I like to tinker and disappointed with the limited one piece poses for the GW Mordor Orcs, decided to see if I could do some kit-bashing by combining them with the Oathmark Goblins which are a pretty good size fit.

The guys have started with Battle Companies, so for Mordor this meant I only need three with shield, two with spear, two with two-handed weapon and two with bows to start, but I was having such fun I chopping them up and gluing them up, that I made up a few more.

Orc Captain with axe & shield and Orc Standard Bearer...

Orcs with sword and shield...

Orcs with spear and shield...

Orcs with two-handed weapons...

Orcs with bows...

Uruk-hai with hand weapons
