Interesting conversions and choice of colours.. unfortunately the pics (except for the alst one) are quite small.. And a bit of text wouldn't hurt either  But I have to say, that I quite like the skin-tone you've chosen.. makes them look very interesting, dark and "threatening"! Actually might suit them more (also movie-wise), than the red-tone in the GW scheme. |

i like the model in the far left of the last picture. i like the way you used azog legs and the arm arm swaps, the best thing is that it looks natural and the painting looks good on all if them. |

Very cool army! I love urukhai scouts! The colour scheme you chose works extremely well and the minis are nicely painted! Good job! |

Bottom left is a fantastic conversion. Well thought out and expertly out together with a top notch paint job. |

As with the others I have to rave over that conversion piece, it looks terrific! As does the Army as a whole, I love the Scout look, so I'm working on a scout army myself |

Thank you for all of your positive comments; it drives me to continue with my armies. I had decided to start with a scout army because not only do the models look great, but I believe the lightly armoured uruks would be involved in many more small skirmishes than the heavily armoured uruk warriors (I like to base armies and battles on fluff). Green cloth: I like to think the orcs dye cloth using bile because it would help with concealment. 1 - Basecoat of waaagh flesh 2 - Highlighted with rotting flesh/waaagh flesh 3 - Further highlight of rotting flesh. Grey skin: I like the idea that uruks are maroon when born but as their skin gets exposed to the elements it becomes thick, callused and dark grey. 1 - Basecoat of chaos black/ shadow grey 2 - Highlight with a mix of chaos black, elf flesh and shadow grey 3 - Wash with asurmen blue |

You missed a small trick with the Berserker chief (I only just spotted it). I would have shaved off the skull on the 'belt' and painted a white hand motif in its place, for the sake of consistency. It is a tiny thing but worth remembering if you ever decide to add any more conversions (there is no such thing as too many orcs/uruks  )

Some really nice conversions in this force and the rusted armour looks great on them. |

Of course! A white hand on the belt would have been much better. |
