I'd be most happy with these guys, they are very nicely painted and go really well together. Top work dude! You could give them a wash of sepia brown to make the metal look a bit rusty perhaps. But other than that, these look great.

Nice work, I like their armour, the highlights make it look really sharp and the conversions work well too

Pictures are a bit big, please size down future posts to around 500-600 pixels wide.

Great bunch of Uruks, love the guy with the bloody axe.

looks awesome! nice conversions, I really like the axe guy and the banner bearer (do you know that for gaming purpose a banner bearer may not carry a shield?)

Another idea for the wash is to mix Scorched Brown: Chaos black into an equal mix and then water it down heaps. You don't have to apply it only to the armour. By applying it to the whole mini you can bring out lots more detail.

What have you got planned next?

Hmm so do you happen to like Isengard then?...

Jokes, nice plans, can't wait to see them carried out.

Good standard on the models so far

Nice minis but not so keen on the 'Hint of Warhammer' axe - something more realistic would have been better in keeping with the genre.

You haven't given this mini an undercoat! Most painters prefer a black undercoat, but a few undercoat in white. An undercoat makes a good base for other paints.

ooh, I am going to have to agree with Natarn Ulka there, Everyone (lol) undercoats, it improves the final model and it saves having to do lasyer upon layer, looking at the green at the moment, i can still see the plastic underneath it.

not to seem rude, in fact i really like your minis, but it really does pay off to undercoat them and most people will agree. just a useful tip :wink:

I have to admit that I have NEVER seen a miniature painted without an undercoat, but from what I see, if that is highlighted up, what difference will it make ?
We all use either black or white as a primer, so the mini itself is Grey and inbetween, I have to admit that I am more intrigued now as to how this will turn out...look forward to seeing the final result, may cost me less in sprays :D
