Awesome conversions on the Corsairs. I have my first group of corsairs ever coming to me in the post.
And I like the Hunters, dark colors. I am painting some hunters right now, they are a tricky lot, lots of detail.

!

familiar? how so?

I got the idea by looking in the Hobbit Chronicles Weta books.

@Sithious Thanks! I went for a dark scheme because I feel orcs shouldn't look just like they took a bath, dirty and dark fits them well. Yes, the miniatures have tons of details, the bone parts were tricky for me to paint. But fantastic sculpts for sure.

I will take a better picture of the orcs in better light later. Until then here is my hunter orcs/ maybe upcoming Mirkwood army objective marker; Narzug after his friendly chat with Thranduil!

Some other objective markers, dead Bolg and a Morannon. Not quite happy with Bolg's skin, but it's a test mini.

I've been working on a White Warg project, since I already owned a foot Azog and didn't want to buy a second one.

I saw the white warg in the painting challenge thread. Looks awesome man. Its almost ghostly jut the way it should be. Awesome! Well done.

Great job with the White Warg, very striking.

I've been working a bit on a Dain during easter, I was growing impatient since GW hasn't released one yet. He's still WIP, don't know what to do with the axe and his horn-moustache could need a redo. It's a pain to work with such small details :-X

Does the horn-moustache look alright?

I was inspired by Dikey, so shoutout to him!

Looks good!

Pimp my helmet Morannon edition! My first attempt with plastic-card, looking forward to test it out more in the future.

And a dwarf banner, green stuffed war mask because why not.

Good idea for the mask and well executed.
If you want that plasticard round you can file it.

I think that is the best Dain I have seen yet. Very well done, would love one myself!

Also great job on the White Warg and the base!

Dain looks the business

Woah, long time no update.

I messed around with some greenstuff some days ago and made some giant spiders, my first attempt at sculpting something from scratch.
