Again most of the colours match with the linemen I painted earlier. One difference you might note is that the numbers are there. I finally found some numbers I was happy with, and after patiently waiting I’ve got them. I’ve gone back and added the numbers to the other finished guys, but I don’t think it’s worth pictures.

28mm (1:56) scale miniatures.
Black Orc Blockers
Some more progress with my Orcs, the Black Orc Blockers are now done. Again, I’m happy with how these are turning out; I’ve got some momentum going on with these guys.
The colours are, in large, the same as the linemen. The main difference is I used a darker skin tone on the blockers. Firstly to add a little visual interest and also to help when playing (it makes it easy for me and my opponent to identify the different player types).
Orc Linemen
Another new system? No, this system has been round for years…
My scheme is based on the Penn State University uniform: dark blue and white. Penn State was where I did my post graduate education and it seemed a good enough colour scheme to try on my orcs. The green of their skin offsets nicely and I felt like the challenge of white, but not too much white. For those who don’t follow US college football, this is what I’m going for:
Tree’s
Tree’s, Tree’s everywhere. On the Terrain building exercise, this week it is all about trees. I have been working to get as much done as possible over the last week, ready for a big day here playing some Flames of War.

Warlord v’s Rubicon T-34/85
Warlord v’s Rubicon T-34/85
I had the chance to get models from both company’s, so I am racing them in my first ever 1 v 1 test.
Having started the Russians I couldn’t say no to T-34/85’s so here we go as we test both kits to see which one win’s out on the first ever Floppy’s Model Kit Challenge.
