Pirate Orcs

Yar, avast, etc

So following on from my comments about not being able to stay focussed, in the two days since I’ve ordered my possessed warband I’ve had to find something else to occupy my time. And these are the results.

Da Kabin Krew!

First up is Kaptin Kabin and his faithful (ish) shaman, Nuggit.

Kap’n Kabin is just a black reach nob with an ogre’s sword (reshaped to be more scimitar like), and a big club for a counts-as morning star. The head as the black reach warboss’s, so I’ve removed the bionics ready for an eye patch and bit hat. I’m also quite happy with the balsa peg leg 😀
Nuggit is a normal orc boy with a cut down spear and slightly modified axe. His head is a cross between a boy and a night goblin.

Next up the Big ‘Uns, Boz Un and Boz Wan.

They are one piece plastic boyz (not sure where from, another bits purchase), with slight arm changes and a couple of plasticard scimitars. They need tricorn hats obviously.

Then we have the henchmen. Firstly, Da Arra Krew.

Again one piece plastics with slight tweaks. Very happy with the guy on the right considering the source. Oh and lefty has a hook hand made from a bretonnian horn/flask/thing. They’ll get bandanas.

Then Da Spika Krew:

These are normal boys with converted spears, one with a peg leg and one with a hook. These guys are also getting bandanas.

Finally Da Kab’n Runtz.

These are normal goblins, again will get bandanas. I love the guy on the left, blatantly saying “once I figure out how this works, you’re gonna get it!”, and the guy on the right looking up at one of the orcs getting his orders.

Hoping to start the sculpts today, shouldn’t take too long. Kaptin’s hat is the main point of concern as it’ll make or break that piece. Everyone else is just tweaks and it’s their paint work that’ll sell them as pirates. Fingers crossed.
