Just a small post from me today.
Back in the winter challenge I painted up a batch of GW Ogres (I refuse to call them by the stupid copyright proof name GW uses). As I still have more of these jolly, fat blokes in the pile I decided to grab a handful and get them tabletop ready. All of the skin was painted with GW contrast paint, which I still cannot seem to get the hang of. The rest of the figures were done with my usual base coat, wash, highlight style.
The Ogre minis are all based on only two bodies on the sprue, so they all have the same pose. However there are a large selection of arms, heads and assorted bits to add to the figures for decoration. My favourite is the slab of ribs hanging on a meat hook.
And here are the AHPC-X and AHQC minis all together.
I believe Ogres are usually scored as 40mm minis, so that should be 42 points for my non-official tally, bringing me up to 494.5
More nice work on your Ogres ( I'm really not up to speed with current GW nomneculture!) Very intimidating bunch all together!

Thanks Iain.
DeleteNot really my cup of tea but a great paint job is a great paint job. Well done Stuart!
ReplyDeleteCheers.
DeleteNice Ogors (sorry, had to do it even though I totally agree with you on the silly copyrightable names!)
ReplyDeleteI find with contrast over large areas like the flesh, a highlight works well to tart them up a little.
I may have to go back over them at some point and give them a highlight then. Thanks for the advice.
DeleteCool ogres! I (usually) know an ogre when I see one, no matter how GW calls them...
ReplyDeleteThank you.
DeleteThem lads have been knocking back the Maccy D's, looks like a weigh in a Slimming World on the 1st week in January 😂 nicely done 👍
ReplyDeleteVery well painted these Ogres Stuart!
ReplyDeleteGreat Ogers
ReplyDeleteGreat ogers
ReplyDeleteDefinitely ogres! Nice work.
ReplyDeleteYup, they're Ogres for sure. No branding is going to change that. Well done Stuart!
ReplyDeleteGreat work, Stuart, we all know that they’re ogres.
