I don't have Delvan Mud, but what colour would you thin down to look like Delvan Mud the most?

Scorched brown and black (about 3:1 off the top of my head) will get you the closest, but since it doesn't flow or settle like Devlan, you're still better off buying a pot of that if you can get one.

Nice list, Billy. The orc looks good too.

Thanks Olle

Holy Smilie Overkill Batman!

Looking good, but if you look again at the back of the Morannon Orc, you'll see that his hair actually carries down over the fur trim around his neck, and as it is just now, you've painted it to look like fur.

Looking great Gorgoroth!

I so wish I had a completely painted Mordor force... I have so much Orc-scum laying around and just hate to paint orcs for some reaon...
Maybe I should pick an evil army next edition of the Tale of x Gamers to force myself painting them up...

They look fine, a whole army painted that way will certainly scare your opponent.

So do you mean that some hair is laying over the brown fur?

80% of the models on that list are unpainted :-X

It takes so long :shock:

Thanks, now I need to build up the Cavalry and Infintary :twisted:

Good painting, Billy. The highlighting on the red cloth is very nice. What colors did you paint it with?

Yes.

The list of yours does not follow the decrees of rarity.

But otherwise good.

Probably because it isn't an army list...

2 x Orc banner Bearer, hell that's not even a legal company...

Maybe, just maybe, it is a list of all the Mordor models he has so far.

Yeah, I still need to sort them out into an army.

Lovely looking orc, if that's possible to say :-D

The banner bearer however in my opinion is way too clean for, as Bart pointed out, scum. I'd suggest a few washes of brown or black over the armor, aswell as some brown drybrushing on the 'fur'like thing at his waist...
Unfortunately I don't know WotR so I can't say anything about the list :rofl:

Keep it up mate!
