Me Horde is Gettin' Bigger!

Eleven more Boyz joined the mob. And this time I came prepared with some hard painting time numbers.

All told, the unit took 6.5 hours to paint, starting from primed and finishing at varnished. I spent 4.5 hours on the base colours and 2 hours of touch-ups and dipping. That's just over 30 minutes per Orc!

I undercoated red and bone with white which reduced my shield coats to one plus touch-ups. Can't fake the red. And if you want to shake off the 4-man bases, you need thick nose pliers. The thin ones break the plastic. Noted for next time.

Final tip: use a rolled up paper towel scrap to wipe down excess dip. Some sections under the shields or between the head and neck can retain too much dip which does not look good.

Finished unit, all mobbed up and ready for some 'umies!

This Horde needs a lot more Orcs, so next up we've got some Savage Orcs with Two Hand weapons. Oi, git in line!
