@halauas: That there is some beautiful armour work. How did you get the chain to set without it bending out of shape?

Maybe he waited for the greenstuff to cure before he glued it on? That's how I would do it.

@SidTheSloth: Actually thats correct, i first sculpted the chain, then let it cure to the shape i wanted and then glue it to the model. Also the armor is not sculpted. I did use instant mold on an easterling horse armor to make a surface large enough then i duplicate it, cut it to the size/shape i want and glued the pieces as parts on the model. I wish i had the patience or the skill to sculpt it

I've decided to change my entry to something that I know I can finish, even though I have yet again given myself less than a week.

I'm only going to have two of these orcs as the final result but I am going to be using parts from all of these guys. I've been wanting to do this conversion for a while now, and in a few days, you'll see what my plans are and I'll explain it more in detail in my WIP.

Proof picture:

I only managed to get one done in the end. All finished except for a little liquid greenstuff needed on the cloak. The shield is blue tacked on for the moment as I'll paint it separately.

Good luck to everyone!

Here's my finished banner carrier! You'll notice that the flag obviously does not belong to Mordor orcs, but to Gondor. Why, you may ask? He stole it. There will be more about this in my WIP later as to my ideas. Hope you like him. It was my first sculpted banner.

(A quarter is used for balance.)

Good luck to all!

Any chance the voting thread could go up when someone has some time free?

Curses, foiled again! I ran out of green stuff and never got bilbo ( aka Igbo) finished!

Yeah a vote would be nice, can anyone make one or do the admins have to do it?
