Orcs and Goblins

Another batch of Reaper figs, two large resin Orcs and four metal gobbos, escorted by a pair of um, *converted* GW space Orks who left their firearms behind and turned to plain old looting.

The resin weapons were FUBAR when they arrived, so the sword Orc got a plastic weapon from the same batch as their two brethren, and for the other I fancied a spear from a paperclip and some greenstuff. The sculpts are nice and they painted up really well. One is based on a piece of MDF and the other on foamboard.

The goblins are mostly there to be kicked around by other factions, but the sculpts are cool.

(I might snap a separate pic of the plastic Orks later, but the one I made for this post turned out to be very blurry.)
 

Reaper Monstas

I wished to include my significant other in some games, and it turned out she prefers skirmishes with larger figures, so I sort of went and stocked up on 28mm ones, which is rater unusual for me, being a 1/72 (or smaller scale) enthusiast.

Here's the first lot, four bods, made by Reaper and ordered from Fantasywelten: a pair of weeping angels, a wraith thingy and the (so be it) Yeti. They all painted up nicely and will be useful for our games.

The angels were the easiest to paint, I placed them on washers and after some inks and grey drybrushes they just looked the part. No issue with the paint sticking to the resin.

The wraith I coated in a glossy varnish to protect the resin from UV rays.

The Yeti is a fun sculpt, it also has an integral base that I painted up to look like snow. I would usually use baking soda for the snow, but there was none to be found, so I used some decorative white sand instead.
